Unlock the true potential of your Breville or Sage espresso machine with the IMS Precision B62.52TH28E Competition Filter Basket. Designed for home baristas who demand café-quality extraction, this Italian-engineered basket replaces your stock filter to deliver superior clarity, consistent flow rates, and a significantly richer espresso profile. By optimizing hole geometry and distribution, this basket eliminates the uneven extraction commonly found with standard baskets, allowing you to taste the distinct notes of your single-origin beans.
Precision-engineered IMS filter basket for consistent, café-grade extraction.
Compatibility and Requirements
This premium basket is specifically engineered for 54mm portafilters found on popular machines including the Breville/Sage Express, Bambino, Bambino Plus, Barista Pro, Impress, Barista Touch, and Infuser. Note that this basket features a 28mm height, which requires the use of a bottomless portafilter. If you are using your original stock portafilter, you will need to remove the plastic internal insert to accommodate the increased depth. Please note: This model is not compatible with the JET series.
Designed for seamless use with bottomless portafilters.
Required modification: Remove the plastic bottom piece from stock portafilters.
Achieving the Perfect 18-22g Dose
The B62.52TH28E is a versatile double-shot basket capable of handling an 18-22g dose, depending on your roast profile. Because light roasts are denser than dark roasts, you will find more coffee fits by weight, whereas darker, airier roasts occupy more volume with less weight. For optimal results, we recommend pairing this basket with a high-quality, freshly roasted bean and a capable burr grinder. Precision tamping (53-53.4mm) is essential to utilize the full surface area of the IMS precision-drilled holes.
The 18-22g capacity provides flexibility for various roast levels.
Perfectly paired with 53-53.4mm precision tampers.
Why Choose IMS Competition Baskets?

This is an essential upgrade for any barista looking to master their extraction and resolve channeling issues on their Breville or Sage machine.
