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,
