Great videos. You’ve convinced me to get the DB. Does the Pullman basket fit okay in the stock Sage portafilter? also, what UK stockist was your Pesado bottomless from? I can’t find them anywhere. Cheers.
Bottomless is only good when you're calibrating your technique or if you're an instagram attention-seeking person. Otherwise, spouted portra will be just fine..
If your puck prep is good there is no mess. Channeling is occasional but not regular. A big advantage for me is the extra clearance with bottomless. Also less cleaning plus many other advantages. I too make plenty of coffee daily. Horses for courses and what works for you.
