I find using it quick and easy. Far simpler than getting a tooth brush or similar or cloth. Just rinse, wiggle and away you go!
I bought one of these.....
Is that a ‘large’?
Looks useful but wife wary of yet another ‘gadget just hanging around’ 😗
skylark The one I have fits my 53mm basket though looking at it, I doubt it would matter much what size pf basket you have
To each their own obviously, but I would worry about long term buildup eventually scratching the basket, being a bit unsanitary unless cleaned often, that sort of thing. Yes coffee itself is abrasive on the basket, but minimizing contact definitely helps.
Hmmm … I of course rinse my PF and basket after each shot. I’ve never done more.
Does any residue build up? Should I periodically be soaking my baskets in Cafeza? How often?
Do I need to use a brush on it periodically? Why and how often?

JHCCoffee I am not a technical person, but I suspect cleaning with water goes so far but I am sure coffee oils do build up. I soak my basket in Cafiza every now and then just because I always have done. I bought the brush because I could not see a reason not to, if that makes sense.
Seen these on quite a few influencers coffee bars.
Probably because it’s a more aesthetically pleasing version of the cloth for wiping out the portafilter. I can definitely see a use for them though.
Well I never… Another use for a doll’s house toilet bog brush.
Sorry couldn’t resist 😬
