EPF 58mm Espresso Paper Filter by Weber Workshops (fits Unifilter or use as a puck screen)

Are you looking to buy EPF 58mm Espresso Paper Filter by Weber Workshops (fits Unifilter or use as a puck screen) in Australia?

This Listing is for 58mm Filters
Only for Weber Workshops UNIFILTER PORTAFILTER or their Unibasket
(Or you can use at the top as a puck screen on a VST or similar basket.

If you are using a VST basket or similar your basket is tapered at the bottom so you need to use the 55mm Filters here.

These 58mm EPF Papers are made by Cafec in Japan, the leading producer of high-end coffee paper filters, to bring the first-of-its-kind paper filter made specifically for espresso, and now made exclusively for Weber Workshops.

Not all filters are equal. Cafec filters are specifically made for high-end coffee making with no change to flavour and taste. For the best of the best, this is what we recommend and we use it daily in our coffee-making.

We recommend you try the 58mm paper as a puck screen. This saves you from keeping a metal screen clean and will keep your shower screen very clean. Your machine will love you. Plus it may help you reduce channeling in your puck.

Why a paper filter?

Paper filters under the coffee puck reduce clogging of the portafilter/unifliter basket holes, thereby facilitating a more even extraction. It also prevents higher flow right at the basket holes, allowing more even water flow throughout the puck, especially in the bottom section. This enables the use of a finer grind, which increases extraction yield while keeping shot times the same. It does introduce an extra step, but the effort is rewarded with a perceptibly improved shot of espresso.

About the paper

In the paper creation process, the roller and the dryer drum operate at different speeds, yielding two different textures on either side of the paper. The smooth size goes against the coffee, and the rough side (the “crepe”) faces down for smooth liquid exit to the pores of the portafilter. It’s engineered to improve your espresso.

Features

• Made in Japan with premium coffee filter paper produced by the wet crepe method.
• Precision cut to fit the bottom of your portafilter perfectly.
• Available in both 55mm (for standard 58mm and VST baskets) and in 58mm (for Unifilter) sizes.
• 0.15mm thickness

Includes

Each pack contains 100 x 58mm EPFs. They can be washed and reused, but performance decreases each time so we do not recommend that.
