Espresso Basket & Machine Size Guide

Normcore portafilter baskets and accessories are made in a few standard diameters. Use this guide to find the right size for your machine before ordering — if you're not sure, check your machine's manual for the basket/group head diameter, or contact us and we'll help you match it.

51mm DeLonghi dedicated-portafilter machines ~18g
54mm Breville / Sage (Barista Express, Barista Pro, Bambino Plus, Oracle, and similar 54mm-group models) ~18–20g

How to check your machine

  1. Remove your portafilter basket and measure the diameter across the top rim.
  2. Match that measurement to the closest size in the table above.
  3. Check the specific product page — most Normcore baskets, portafilters, and puck screens list exact compatible machine brands in the size/variant selector.

Still not sure? Reach out to us at hello@normcorewares.com with your machine's brand and model, and we'll confirm the right size before you order.

Description

Engineered for baristas and serious home brewers, the Normcore Dual-Head Distributor & Tamper delivers precision, consistency, and control in every shot.

Designed to refine your espresso workflow, this patent-pending 2-in-1 tool combines even distribution with balanced tamping—helping you build a uniform coffee bed for improved extraction and richer flavor clarity.

A level puck is the foundation of great espresso. By evenly redistributing grounds before tamping, you reduce channeling and create the conditions needed for a dense, stable pack.

For best performance, ensure your portafilter basket is properly filled. If the dose is too low, the distributor may not contact the coffee bed effectively. Before leveling, use a straight edge to groom the surface for optimal results.

Care Instructions
Hand wash only. Avoid dishwashers and strong detergents to preserve the finish and mechanical integrity of the tool.
