51mm portafilter for Delonghi ECP3420/EC155/BCO430/EC260, 51mm bottomless portafilter 2 ears, Stainless Steel Replacement Parts for Delonghi Handle

This bottomless portafilter fits and works perfectly with my DeLonghi Stilosa. Coffee comes out smoothly without any channeling or straying. I do follow the directions and make sure to fully tighten things and use a good grinder the grinds finely enough for espresso. The design looks nice and fits well with the machine. Finally, the fact that it’s bottomless makes it easy to clean. Overall, this is a helpful tool.

Great quality for the price. I am an espresso beginner and never failed with this portafilter. I did research how to dial (ground size&amount, tamping, helpful equipments, etc) and follow the steps🙂I am using a filer screen which I think may prevent spraying. 😅

This worked just fine at first, but recently just started leaking, spraying coffee everywhere. I tried lots of corrective measures, but nothing worked. I was about to return it, but decided to try one more time and tighten the portafilter as tight as possible. It is not enough to tighten it to the 4 O'clock position. You must feel/hear the portafilter's ears hitting metal and not being able to move any further. It then worked perfectly. No leaks and a nice single stream of coffee coming out. For me, if I stop short even 1/8th of an inch from the maximum amount of tightening, it will leak.

Hot water just run through fast without to take flavor out of the coffee. I wanted to try it based on some picture, but those must be fake pics. it transform the espresso machine in a bad percolating coffee machine. it's solid, heavy and easy to clean, fit my delonghi without problem but results are extremely poor.

As described, just didn’t work with my machine, unfortunately.

I have a Deloghni ECP3630. I did not try the included basket instead I used a Hughs basket purchased separately on Amazon. I ground the coffee with my Capresso Infinity Burr Grinder.This portafilter fit the machine perfectly and produced excellent shots. I’m delighted with this purchase. It was a great price.

Not a true fit for the DeLonghi ECP3420. It leaks quite a bit. I would purchase the OEM filter holder assembly from the DeLonghi website.It's an everyday struggle to keep it from leaking everywhere when making a cup.

Perfect fit and super fast shipping!
