  • BETTER EXTRACTION DYNAMICS

    The Unifilter™ created a portafilter revolution. Weber Workshops is extending that concept to the Unibasket™, utilizing the same construction and improvements on extraction that the Unifilter™ brought, but in a "drop-in" basket form.

    The Unibasket™ is a portafilter basket created from a single, thick piece of stainless steel. Whereas typical baskets are made from thin wafers, the Unibasket™ is forged from a 1.2mm thick blank of metal. The added thickness dramatically improves the rigidity of the puck during extraction by not allowing the bottom face to bow outwards, a common cause of puck cracking and channeling during extraction.

    The Unibasket™ is made from a solid piece of Stainless 304 material. All of the holes are individually laser-ablated and go right up to the vertical wall edge, giving a true 58.5mm puck from top to bottom. Now made for anywhere from 16g ~28g shots spread across four sizes (and all +/- ~1g with use or elimination of puck screen).

    • Compatibility:
      • The height of the Unibasket varies by size. If the existing basket in your spouted portafilter is shorter, the Unibasket may interfere with the bottom of the group handle.
      • The Unibasket will fit most bottomless group handles. It is NOT COMPATIBLE with bottomless group handles by ECM, Slayer, Gaggia, Rancillio and Breville.
    • Size:
      • 16g basket: ⌀71mm x H24mm (⌀2.8in x H0.945in)
      • 20g basket: ⌀71mm x H26mm (⌀2.8in x H1.02in)
      • 24g basket: ⌀71mm x H29mm (⌀2.8in x H1.14in)
      • 28g basket: ⌀71mm x H31mm (⌀2.8in x H1.22in
    • Weight:
      • 16g basket: 56g (1.98oz)
      • 20g basket: 59g (2.08oz)
      • 24g basket: 62g (2.19oz)
      • 28g basket: 66g (2.33oz)
    • Material: Forged, machined and polished 304 Stainless Steel

Works as expected

I wanted to jump on the wagon of these high end high extraction baskets. Ended up pulling the trigger on this one over other options. So far I am very happy with the result.
I have to thank EightOunceCoffee for making WW more accessible to the canadian market

Great to have a source of Weber products in Canada

I was interested in this as soon as it came out but couldn't stomach the shipping cost from the far East. With Eight Ounce, I have free shipping - and points! :-)

Still early days with the basket, but results appear promising. Flow rates are super-high; you'll have to grind quite a bit finer, and even then, expect extraction times might drop by five+ seconds.

The basket needs the included portafilter spring (wire) to be changed on most of my portafilters. Note on the La Marzocco Linea Micra's supplied portafilter that the Unibasket's spring makes for a very tight fit - use a lot of care when prying the Unibasket out of the portafilter. The Micra portafilter's spouts also won't attach with the 20g Unibasket, but I never use the spouts.

Next Level

it's expensive but appears to be very well made. It also has some weight to it. Nice it comes with 100 EPF's and heavy duty puck screen. Just waiting on Meticulous now.
