The precision holes in this basket let me dial in my shots much faster than with the stock one. Extraction looks even across the whole puck, and the build quality feels solid.

Finally, consistent 18g doses without channeling issues. The basket's fit in my portafilter is precise and the extraction flow looks beautifully even from start to finish.
Lucy★★★★★
Switched to this 18g basket and the difference in shot consistency is immediately noticeable. The precision machining really helps with even extraction, and my espresso has never tasted cleaner.
Brian E.★★★★★
The extra-fine holes in this IMS basket really evened out my shots—no more channeling, just smooth, syrupy pours every time. It’s noticeably heavier and better machined than the stock basket that came with my machine.
Abigail Q.★★★★★
Switching to this basket was a game-changer for my espresso workflow—the precision holes are noticeably more consistent than my old one. It's amazing how much cleaner and more balanced each shot tastes now.
Madison★★★★☆
I was skeptical about upgrading my basket, but the IMS Competition Series has definitely improved my shot consistency. The 18g capacity fits perfectly with my typical dose, and extraction feels noticeably more even. Only downside is it’s a bit pricier than standard baskets, but the quality seems worth it.
Sofia★★★★☆
The precision holes really make a difference in how evenly the water flows through the grounds. I’m getting noticeably fewer channeling issues compared to my old basket, even if it cost a bit more than I expected.
Henry★★★☆☆
I was hoping for a noticeable improvement in shot consistency, and it does deliver smoother extractions than my old basket. The precision holes are clearly well-made, though I’ve had to dial in my grind a bit more than expected. Three stars because it’s good but not the game-changer I’d anticipated.
