Absolute Tactical Authority on the Bar

For the modernist who favors silence, precision, and commanding aesthetics. The Obsidian Edition strips away traditional woodgrains to deliver a brutally clean, hyper-modern silhouette. We married a precision-milled stainless steel core with an aerospace-grade aluminum handle, finished in a zero-glare, matte obsidian black. This isn't just a bottomless portafilter; it is a tactical instrument designed to anchor your La Marzocco setup with a heavy, uncompromising visual presence and a cinematic view of your extraction.

Fast Facts

  • Heavyweight Command: Weighing a substantial 475g (16.76 oz), it delivers a highly composed, luxurious hand-feel and massive thermal stability.
  • Stealth Obsidian Finish: A deep, matte black anodized surface that refuses to reflect glare, creating a visually quiet, disciplined footprint on your drip tray.
  • Cinematic Extraction: The uninhibited bottomless architecture strips away the spouts, giving you an unfiltered, real-time diagnostic view of your espresso's flow.
  • Immaculate Workflow: The modern metal-on-metal construction requires zero delicate maintenance—simply rinse, wipe, and return to the group head.

The Stealth Reserve

Built for the stealthy, monochrome, or industrial coffee bar. The transition from the high-polish stainless steel head to the light-absorbing black aluminum handle is virtually seamless, offering tight, meticulous tolerances that complement the aggressive lines of your Linea Micra, Mini, or GS3.

Technical Specifications

  • Finish: Matte Obsidian Black (Anodized for scratch resistance and zero-fade durability).
  • Weight: Heavyweight 16.76 oz (475 g) for superior thermal mass and lock-in tactile feedback.
  • Dimensions: Length: 9.25 in (235 mm) | Head Width: 3.15 in (80 mm)

The Unforgiving View (A Note on Extraction)

If you experience occasional channeling, spurting, or spraying during your dial-in process, this is not a defect of the portafilter—it is the raw, unedited truth of your puck prep. The naked bottom ruthlessly exposes inconsistencies in your grind size, distribution, and tamping. Refine your technique, master the variables, and watch the chaos resolve into a flawless, tiger-striped stream of liquid gold.

Details

Will this fit my machine?

Use the compatibility note near the title as your first checkpoint. Breville products may offer size-specific variants, while La Marzocco, Gaggia Classic, and Rancilio Silvia products on this site are matched by machine family and platform fit. A 58mm basket size does not automatically mean universal portafilter fit.

Is each handle exactly the same?

No. Wood grain, figure, tone, and resin movement naturally vary from piece to piece. That variation is part of the handmade character of the product.

What is included and how should I care for it?

Basket status is shown near the product title and in the key details section.
Care is simple: wipe the handle dry after use, avoid soaking wood, and refresh the finish with a food-safe oil when needed.
