As the wooden handles are a natural product, the graining and colour of the wood can differ slightly from that shown. Hence it is possible to have 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.
Walnut wood care and maintenance: Most 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!
NOTES:
Spout position - When the spouts are attached to the portafilter you may be lucky, and they may tighten in exactly the position that you want the spouts to be in. However, most of the time this is not the case, and with every spouted portafilter you can wind PTFE tape around the thread of the portafilter to adjust the position/point at which the spouts tighten and eventually point. Typically you may need 10-15 turns of tape on the thread in order to do this - though more or less tape will allow you to adjust the final tightening position further. Depending on the locking in position of your portafilter you may need the spouts in different positions, or as your group gasket wears or is replaced this may change - but adding or removing tape will allow you to adjust the position of the spouts.
Spent puck removal: 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,

Your question:
What is the maximum basket this can fit? I’m using a 20gr basket and it’s really tight, I can hardly fit the portafilter into the group head… I think this only works well with 18gr basket… can you clarify?Our answer:
You can use a 15g, or 18g basket if you have an 8.5mm group gasket; the larger 20g precision baskets (due to the straight sides on these) will just fit - though it becomes easier if you have an 8.0mm gasket. The 22g baskets won't fit, they are too deep and you need a bottomless.

Love the style of these especially as it can be paired with other accessories such as a wooden handled tamper and machine knob etc. Unfortunately what lets it down, at least in my case, is that the handle itself only has a wooden thread, so after a few months of use the thread loses its grip on the metal part, and eventually can't stay tight even through a single use. I still like them, but I would really like to see the wooden thread replaced with an embedded metal thread before I consider ordering a replacement.
