Blind filter

Fresh machine, full flavor

After every espresso you pull, coffee residue is left on the group head. And because it’s hot, that residue dries fast.

Do this for a week straight, and I (Jasper) promise you’ll taste it in your coffee. Don’t ask how I know. 😉

A solid cleaning routine is key to great espresso. And the blind filter is tool number one.

Use it to backflush your machine weekly and flush out all that built-up coffee. Good for your espresso and your machine.

Small tool, big impact

At Barista Essentials, we constantly research the best barista tools, both in the Netherlands and beyond.

And if the best tools don’t exist yet, we design them ourselves. That way, you get only the best tools for the best coffee at home.

Here’s what makes our blind filters stand out:

• 100% stainless steel more durable than plastic inlays (looking at you, Sage)
• Perfect fit for your portafilter
• Available in two sizes (54mm / 58mm)

The blind filter for your machine

We offer blind filters in two sizes, suitable for the following machines:

54mm: Sage Barista Express, Sage Barista Pro, Sage Barista Touch, Sage Bambino, Solis Grind & Infuse Pro, Breville Barista Express.

Maintenance tip: After backflushing, we recommend giving your espresso machine a deeper clean every 3 months using a blind filter and espresso machine cleaner.
