I had a bottomless portafilter with the ACS Minima I bought which I believe was the one that would have come with it. It also came with the double spout.
The bottomless one was used for the first time recently and a couple of things concern me and I’ve no idea of the cause. It has a 14/15g basket in it and using that amount of coffee, or less:
- When in use the portafilter is spitting coffee out. Not huge amounts but enough to not be normal.
- When locked into the machine it’s nowhere near as far round as it should be but won’t move any further.
I assume these are linked but considering it was with the machine no idea why. The double spout works fine and sits much further round when locked in - almost 90 degrees to machine
Any suggestions why, and can anyone suggest which bottomless portafilter fits the ACS Minima well please as I want another asap?
I ordered one online and it didn’t fit!
Many thanks, Mark
