Overview

We have developed these high extraction baskets to perform with coffee that is usually lighter in roast profile, and has more subtle tasting notes. Coffees with more intense flavour will result in a fuller experience without compromising the balance of the drink.

With its unique design, it extracts significantly more dissolved materials from your beans, thanks to the technology applied to perforate the bottom of the 54mm basket.

Compatibility

Designed to fit all Pesado 58mm portafilters.

*He[%] 58mm baskets are not compatible with stock 58mm Breville portafilter.

Precision

Build
These 58mm high extraction filter baskets are developed in 1.1mm stainless steel, CNC finished with laser cut holes at the bottom that expands in circles all the way to the outer edge of the bottom surface.
Durable Build – Made from 1.1 mm stainless steel for strength and longevity.
Precision Engineered – CNC finished for consistent shape and accuracy.
Full-Coverage Flow – Laser-cut holes expand to the edge for even extractions.

High

Extraction
The added thickness improves the rigidity of the puck during extraction by not allowing the bottom face to bow outwards and the laser-cut holes are extremely accurate and allow for a higher open surface area that offers less resistance to the water flow during the extraction.

Strong, Full

Flavoured Coffee
We believe He[%] 58mm Breville Filter Baskets will allow you to experience a more consistent extraction as well as an increased amount of total dissolved solids in your shot (higher yield), as you will be able to grind finer for the same extraction flow. After comparing a large number of espresso shots with fixed variables we can confidently say that these 54mm baskets will enhance your coffee experience for both black shoots and milk-based beverages where the coffees are light in roast profile and flavour notes are more subtle .

Frequently Asked Questions

The He[%] filter basket is produced using CNC machining and laser cut hole technology, VST or IMS baskets are a pressed product, and both hole and shape are created by press and polish machines.

Our He[%] 54mm Breville Filter Basket uses 1.1mm thick steel, while IMS/VST uses a thinner layer of steel and the top diameter is different from the bottom diameter.

Our He[%] 54mm Breville Filter Basket has an overall more significant amount of holes and open surface area compared to IMS and VST. The laser technology allows the holes of HE to be closer to the edges

Please check the product specifications to allow enough clearance.

Small - depth 21.5mm (depth)

Medium - 23.5mm (depth)

Large - 25.5mm (depth)

X-Large - 27.5mm (depth)

Our HE filter baskets will fit all our Pesado 58mm Spouted, Naked & Hybrid portafilters.

**For Breville 58mm, you will need to purchase a compatible bundle for the basket to fit (here)

For all our Breville 54mm customers, hang tight - there is something in the works!

Rule of thumb.

If it fits in your portafilter, it will fit in your machine.

Due to having a thickness of 1.1mm some may find it fits tightly on their coffee machine, but do not be discouraged - our filter basket design will keep your group seal lasting longer due to its rigid/flat structure.

Like any other espresso accessories soak in caffetto.

You can use a group brush or a needle to remove any stubborn residues.

Customer photo review of High Extraction He[%] Filter Baskets for a Fuller Coffee Experience

Truly extracts at the next level. Far more complex flavor in the cup than with my VST basket. Only downside is the straight vertical walls make puck extraction quite challenging. Requires many “whacks” using a new technique to get the puck out. That’s the price to pay though for this type of basket.

Customer photo review of High Extraction He[%] Filter Baskets for a Fuller Coffee Experience

The design is great, and both flow rate and extraction are quite stable. I originally thought this would become one of my go-to baskets. Unfortunately, the holes clog far too easily, and the buildup is almost impossible to clean. I’ve tried multiple methods but none were able to fully clear the blockage. Disappointing for an otherwise well-made piece of gear.

Customer photo review of High Extraction He[%] Filter Baskets for a Fuller Coffee Experience

The High Extraction Filter basket is really effective at extracting more from my coffee. I had to go a little finer with my grinder to maintain the correct extraction ratio and that meant the water was in contact with more of the coffee. I'm really pleased with the result in the cup as it has improved the flavour profile of my coffee. Teamed up with the shower screen, I have a winning combination.

Customer photo review of High Extraction He[%] Filter Baskets for a Fuller Coffee Experience

very interesting filter basket.Very high quality, thicker. More geared towards light roasts. I get amazing results when I use a higher ratio. 20 grams of coffee to 60 ml of water and more for 20 seconds. If you try to pull classic 1to2 ratio 25/30 sec you need to grind extremely fine and extract too much for my taste.

Customer photo review of High Extraction He[%] Filter Baskets for a Fuller Coffee Experience

The Pesado Basket is a quality piece of kit. Very sturdy and solid, it took some time to get used to how snug it fits into my bottomless Portafilter. It also took a few shots to dial in the grind properly. My preferred shot is now 24g for +- 36 seconds to get 48g of espresso. Unlike my VST baskets, the shot comes out in a "shower" as opposed to a single stream given the very flat base of the basket. The result is now a very rich, concentrated brew which I am absolutely loving. Worth every cent to import it into South Africa from Australia.

Bought this with an extra and the Pesado portafilter bundle. This basket is great! Plenty of room for coffee, flows evenly and looks great. These products look and feel like they are made to last a lifetime. Do not hesitate to buy. Well worth the money in my opinion.

Customer photo review of He[%] High Extraction Filter Basket

I've got mixed feeling after two weeks, mainly because I'm struggling to dial this basket in AND get it to taste good. I'm using a Decent DE1 with a Versalab M4 grinder, and I've bought an 18g basket. This is an 18g basket, not an 18-20g basket, there's no room for a puck screen using an 18g dose Flow is faster, but a finer grind results in a bitter extraction. If I stop pre-infusion, I get good extraction pressures and flows on the Decent screen, but a thin and characterless shot. I'll persist, but I'm a bit mystified by this basket.

Customer photo review of He[%] High Extraction Filter Basket

Wonderful basket! It really feels more substantial than other baskets. Very easy to dial in with because it allows for a finer grind, so less wasted beans! Feels premium, looks premium. The machining/lasering is precise and smooth. If you're an espresso enthusiast and want to try a higher end basket, start here!

He[%] High Extraction Filter Basket

Customer photo review of High Extraction He[%] Filter Baskets for a Fuller Coffee Experience

I’ve retired my IMS precision basket, which I formerly loved, because the Pesado 58.5 basket is so freaking good! Back to back comparisons revealed that it extracts more flavor, deeper flavors, and the shots taste more balanced. Caveat: it doesn’t play well with many portafilter funnels. I initially tried to use it with my long-standing Decent magnetized funnel, and the funnel could not form a good seal over the top of the basket edge, which is angular and flat rather than rounded as are most baskets. It wasn’t until my new LAGOM P64 arrived with its own custom portafilter funnel (the Decent doesn’t fit on the P64) that I was able to use and enjoy the Pesado basket. The LAGOM funnel has a wider base and seats perfectly over the angular edge of the Pesado basket, so no more mess. Bottom line: the Pesado HE basket is brilliant and exceeded my expectations.
