For Gaggia and La Marzocco
Grinding always left coffee grounds next to the portafilter, and that bugged me. So first I bought a cool magnetic funnel, but I couldn't tamp through it. Take it off, tamp, and there goes the coffee again. So I built my own. This one comes in 58 mm, for Gaggia and La Marzocco. Put it on, turn it clockwise, it sits. You can tamp straight through it.
The click puts the item in your cart and the counter at the top goes up. You only order from the cart.
The Workflow
The funnel grips the bayonet lugs of your portafilter with two opposing slots. Set it on, twist clockwise, it sits tight. The ground coffee runs entirely into the basket.
The narrowest point of the opening measures 60.0 mm. A 58 mm tamper fits through, so you tamp straight through the funnel without taking it off. With the common magnetic funnels that is exactly what you can't do.
The Seat
The top rim of a filter basket isn't flat, it's rolled into a half-round. Funnels with a flat seat therefore rest on a curve, and a gap is left in between.
The seat of this funnel has a groove with a 2.8 mm radius that follows the rim instead. It sits on the curve, not beside it. What we measured is the shape, not the amount of coffee: nobody counted how much stays behind, so there's no number here.
The Fit
Gaggia: Baby, Carezza, Classic, Espresso, Deluxe, Evolution, New Baby, Baby06, Baby Dosata, New Espresso 06. And La Marzocco. Both portafilters are on the table here, the funnel has been set on and twisted, and it sits.
"58 mm" is a nominal size, not a standard. The number describes the filter basket, not the bayonet above it, and that is exactly where manufacturers diverge: the lugs sit in different places, at different widths and different thicknesses. Even our two portafilters differ at the rim by 0.8 mm.
This funnel is not built for the E61 group (Rocket, ECM, Lelit, Profitec, Bezzera, Quick Mill, Rancilio). That's not caution, it's arithmetic: the E61 head rim measures 72.8 mm, our collar bore 72.2 mm. It will not go over.
If you have a different 58 mm portafilter, give it a try. We're not telling you it fits. We're telling you we haven't measured it. If it doesn't fit, send it back: 14 days right of withdrawal plus 30 days return.
Made in Munich
The funnel is only made after your order, in our Munich workshop. Afterwards it's checked, packed by hand, and on its way within 1 to 3 business days.
Printed from PLA. No water-carrying parts, so no PETG needed. Wipe with a damp cloth or rinse briefly cold, not dishwasher-safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
On Gaggia and La Marzocco, yes: we have both portafilters here and the funnel sits on them. On any other 58 mm portafilter we don't know. "58 mm" describes the filter basket, not the bayonet. It is not built for the E61 group, where the head rim at 72.8 mm is wider than our collar bore at 72.2 mm.
No. The Dedica has a 51 mm portafilter with three tabs. For that there's the 51 mm dosing funnel, the same design one size down.
Yes, that's what the bayonet is for. The narrowest point of the opening measures 60.0 mm, a 58 mm tamper goes through.
The top rim of the filter basket is rolled into a half-round. The groove with a 2.8 mm radius follows that curve instead of resting flat on it. How much less coffee ends up in the gap we have not measured, so we promise nothing about it.
Wipe with a damp cloth or rinse briefly under cold water. It's printed from PLA and not dishwasher-safe.
