As the wooden handles are a natural product, the graining and colour of the wood can differ slightly from that shown.  We have included an additional image to demonstrate some of the possible variances in the wood graining and staining. Also whilst we try hard to protect the wood from any damage, as they are commercially manufactured wooden handles they may occasionally have small dents, scratches or dings in the handle - though this obviously doesn't impact performance and if any are noticeable then we can provide advice on adjusting the mounting and minimising the visibility of them.

Oak wood care and maintenance:  Many of our wooden products have a varnished finished, though some wood products have an oiled finish - which typically benefits from periodic maintenance in order to enhance the appearance and feel of the grain, prevent any issues with cracking and increases the longevity of the wood.  As required, these wooden handles should be lightly reoiled with food grade mineral oil (not olive oil or vegetable oil as this won't usually dry). Ensure the wood is dry and dust free by rubbing with a dry cloth, and then simply pour a little food grade mineral oil onto a cloth and rub this into the surface of the wood, leave it to dry for 10-15 minutes, then reapply - and after a further 15 minutes use a dry paper towel or dry cloth to remove any excess oil. That's it!

NOTE: If you're ejecting your spent pucks directly into the waste (bin/can/garbage), then with any portafilter you may well find that the basket exits as well.  We would always advocate the use of a proper "knock box" to ensure that this doesn't happen - whereby the basket is pushed into the portafilter whilst the spent puck is ejected, and there is no risk of loosing the basket from the portafilter,
