Review: Best basketcase - Our son very pleased with this finer filter
Review: Tamper and other accessories fit - This basket makes a hug’h’ difference. I’ve heard plenty about IMS filters making a difference but it’s really true. With the new basket, I don’t have channeling issue I had with a cheaper basket, and the whole process just feels elevated. Im not refined enough to exactly say what changed in the taste, but it noticeably tastes better also. Looking at IMS filters on desertcart, I noticed and was initially worried that my random assortment of tampers, distributors, etc from different companies wouldn’t fit. I don’t have any of these issues with this basket, so you can rest assured on this version. All in all, a very happy buyer, and definitely worth the 20 odd quids that I spent on this.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much coffee powder can I fit into the filter basket?**
A: H26 is designed for about 14–18 g and H30 for about 16–22 g; in most cases 16–18 g (H26) and 18–20 g (H30) work best.

**Q: What size tamper should I use?**
A: Both H26 and H30 are 51 mm baskets, so we recommend a flat tamper around 50.5–50.8 mm, slightly smaller than the basket.

**Q: Will this basket fit my espresso machine or portafilter?**
A: This is a 51 mm non-pressurized basket, so please check that your portafilter size is 51 mm and compare the basket dimensions (top inside 51 mm, outer rim about 60 mm, height 26 or 30 mm) with the size information before purchase.

**Q: What should I check if the basket does not lock properly?**
A: Do not force it; test the basket empty, check the portafilter spring, and compare the height and rim size with your stock basket, as bigger or deeper baskets may not be compatible with some machines.

### ⭐⭐ Too small and not worth it
*by A***R on 15 August 2025*

Too small for the rated 51 mm, when used with other tools/parts of other brands rated also at 51 mm. For instance, a bit loose in the portafilter, and then the tamper does not fit inside. Managed to use it with a smaller tamper, but the coffee quality was not noticeably better than with the basket I already had, which costed four times less. Not a good value for money.
