The Basket Cap Pro is an improved version of the original 9Barista silicone basket cap. It is made of electropolished stainless steel. It has 370 laser-cut holes that provide up to four times better flow uniformity compared to the standard silicone cap.

This enhancement ensures more even coffee saturation , minimizes channeling, and delivers a cleaner, more balanced espresso, especially when using high-quality, freshly ground coffee. It is the ideal choice for home baristas who want to take every espresso to the next level.

Main advantages of Basket Cap PRO:

• more uniform saturation of the coffee bud
• significantly reduced channeling
• more stable extraction with more repeatable results
• cleaner, more balanced espresso flavor , especially with quality freshly ground coffee - when the pod is evenly saturated, without channeling and the extraction is stable, this will be reflected directly in the cup. Espresso prepared with the Basket Cap PRO tends to be cleaner in both aroma and flavor

Basket Cap PRO contains two O-rings: Use the red O-ring with the standard basket 9Barista and the black O-ring with the IMS precision basket.

The durable stainless steel construction is designed for everyday use, offering easy cleaning, long life, and high wear resistance.

Compatibility : MK1 (dose reduction by 2.5g), MK2.
