IMS Competition Big Bang Basket - 22/24gr

The Big Bang basket is the latest innovation from IMS; fewer and smaller holes that get closer together as you get closer to the center. The distance between the holes starts at 1.5mm at the center and increases towards the outside. This unique pattern reduces side channeling by forcing more flow through the center resulting in a balanced coffee with softened acidity and a clean body. Electropolished for a smooth and easy to clean finish with strong chemical resistance.

Suitable for standard portafilters accepting a 58/58.4mm tamper base.

Please make sure that you measure your portafilter depth to ensure  it can accept a 27.5mm tall basket.  A bottomless portafilter may be required.
