Anyone know is the Weber portafilter with the built in basket works on the you? I think it's called the unifilter...

The Weber site suggests it's compatible with E61, so the answer should be yes. Also note that Weber is said to be making baskets which would be compatible with most handles.

Interesting review from the "Home Cafe by Charlie" YouTube channel. 11:16 long.

Interesting video. It's weird to note "too much steam that can be turned down in the settings" as a negative but alright.

I would say nonsensical more than interesting.... His principal gripe is that it took him several kilos to dial in his shots using the profiles. This challenge is intrinsic to any variable pressure machine. What a dope. He should learn through using the paddle first and then try and define some profiles from scratch.

Just wanted to update everyone that the normcore naked pf fits properly and works well.

Model E61 58mm fits a bunch of vendors including Sanremo.

I was turned off by E61 at first, but I think it will help keep things easy and consistent if there's a standard group with standard and easily-found accessories. Long live SR61!

E61 isn't so bad of design, is it?

My initial thought was - "why can't SR do a fully saturated group like the Rocket R nine one?" But, after learning about the additional heating element and now also knowing that my existing accessories and components fit... it's not that bad, no.
