## Description

Unlock Better Espresso with the IMS Competition Filter Basket – 51mm Precision for Consistent Shots Upgrade your espresso setup with the IMS Competition Line Filter Basket, engineered for baristas and espresso enthusiasts who demand consistency and clarity in every shot. Originally designed for barista championships, this 51mm stainless steel filter basket features 593 precision-machined holes that support even water flow and reduced channeling – helping you extract the full flavor potential from your espresso grounds. Perfect for home baristas and pros alike, this premium espresso accessory is made with food-grade stainless steel for long-lasting durability, corrosion resistance, and smooth surface polish for easy cleaning. If you're looking to improve your espresso extraction and achieve rich, balanced flavor, this competition-level basket is your go-to upgrade.

Review: I can verify categorically that the HUGO IMS 51 mm Precision Filter Basket *H30* DOES NOT FIT the De'Longhi La Specialista Prestigio, EC9355.M, particularly the machine's Tamping Station. The brew head is also a very tight fit and the portafilter resisted locking completely to the right. I think this is because the lip of the basket is rounded as opposed to flat like the original basket. I am going to try the Verybarista IMS Precision 16-18g Filter Basket DL2TH26E and see if the listing for that is misleading too. I will review that item when I receive it and hopefully help people choose and not waste their time faffing about with the myriad choices for a replacement basket. I have immediately returned this and a refund has been approved. If whoever is responsible for the wording of the listing reads this, please amend the listing accordingly.
Review: doesn't work with magnetic dosing rings due to width, but otherwise works as expected.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much coffee powder can I fit into the filter basket?**
A: H26 is designed for about 14–18 g and H30 for about 16–22 g; in most cases 16–18 g (H26) and 18–20 g (H30) work best.

**Q: What size tamper should I use?**
A: Both H26 and H30 are 51 mm baskets, so we recommend a flat tamper around 50.5–50.8 mm, slightly smaller than the basket.

**Q: Will this basket fit my espresso machine or portafilter?**
A: This is a 51 mm non-pressurized basket, so please check that your portafilter size is 51 mm and compare the basket dimensions (top inside 51 mm, outer rim about 60 mm, height 26 or 30 mm) with the size information before purchase.

**Q: What should I check if the basket does not lock properly?**
A: Do not force it; test the basket empty, check the portafilter spring, and compare the height and rim size with your stock basket, as bigger or deeper baskets may not be compatible with some machines.
