	Learning tool and more.	03/28/2009
	Reviewer: J. B. Quarles   (2) from Houston, TX US
	I got this for free with my new Silvia (Thank You 1st-Line) and my first try with it made me think WOW! this thing makes a great cup of Americano, then after learning it was a three cup and working with it I found it to be a fantastic training tool for tweaking grind and tamp. Its light weight but it is sturdy and will handle many a knock. Buy one and practice, practice practice, you will not be sorry!

	Well-made bottomless portafilter	11/26/2008
	Reviewer: Paul Troiano   (2) from Whippany, NJ US
	The fit and finish on this portafilter is excellent. It's better than what originally came with my 2001 Rancillio Silvia. Overall using this portafilter has truly helped my espresso making. I'm tamping harder than I was before and I'm also getting much more insistent on working only with fresh coffee. I highly recommend getting a bottomless portafilter if your looking to improve and this is an excellent choice.

	I highly recommeend using a bottomless portafilter for tweaking your espresso shots. I have seen significant improvements in my espresso shots using the bottomless portafilter as a diagnostic aid.

	Poor fit for Tea	02/12/2008
	Reviewer: Jono Billings   (2) from Cape Cod
	I purchased this pf for my Isomac Tea and discovered that it does not lock in like my other pfs, it doesn't swivel all the way to the fore and aft position. I thought about changing the gasket in the group head to a thinner one but then my other pfs won't fit. I have currently stopped using it, I'm bummed out but not sure what to do.
