DavecUK which dosing funnel do you have? Is it an ‘inny’ or an ‘outy’?

I’m finding it’s quite a well debated topic that some feel the ‘inny’ versions create channelling issues, but the counter argument is that the inner rim doesn’t penetrate deeply enough to cause the effect. I’ve kind of concluded that spending £2500 on my set up is justification in itself to buy a dosing funnel that doesn’t sit inside the rim. I’ve seen some nice walnut versions on etsy for around £30 and if course there is the ‘decent’ funnel, but I’m struggling for other options to consider.

      I don’t like innies, mines an innie and it leaves edges.

      I want an outie

      If you have a 58mm portafilter then for less than £10 I’ve got this dosing funnel off eBay:

      There is no rim that sits inside the basket or impacts the bed and it has a few magnets to hold in place (not super strong but do the job)

          It’s an innie, but the edges don’t go low enough to be anywhere near the coffee, so it doesn’t matter. It’s also the best dosing ring of all…because it was free. Ceado gave me it at Host 2019 (when they used to like me).

              Mark-drinks-coffee appreciate the link, but I dose 22g per coffee so it needs to be a tall funnel. The one I’ve got right now is around the same size and I have to clean up coffee grinds on every occasion!

                  DavecUK fair enough. Maybe I’ve just convinced myself I need an outie version, but we all know that good coffee is about getting your variables stable and consistent. The hoff even dries his basket on every occasion as he feels that any water whatsoever provides a faster route and effects water penetrating the entire Puck evenly. This would be a broadly similar argument

                    Very nice of them to keep my order pending on request. These two will rest for 2 weeks and go in freezer.

                    Unfortunately Chelbesa ran out and they took the liberty of replacing it with Kisinga; they didn’t ask me, though. They think it is as good as or better than Chelbesa. I am sure they would not have sent if they had thought otherwise. Let’s see.

                      Technically the postman hasn’t brought it yet but I got this today which made me equal parts exhilarated and fearful as I’m not sure if I fully squared the purchase away at the time with the boss 😬

                        Ordered a Niche for the work office. Facilities will still supply beans for the Luigi, but now anyone can single dose on the Niche.

                        Not shown are an IMS basket, a scale, and a calibrated tamper.

                        While I’m not in love with return to office, might as well make the best of it

                        Will do some head to head between the grinders after we get a new group gasket for the espresso machine and when I’m allowed out of quarantine

                        DavecUK really nice looking distributor. I imagine the aluminium feels so much better than 3Dprint plastic.

                        Also what kind of jobs do you people here have that you can order prosumer grinders for work coffee??
