I extract dark roast espresso.
My ideal espresso is like a follows picture.



I'm looking for baskets which have large holes.
So, I'm interested in "Barista Pro Precision Insert Baskets".
Chris coffee sales them.
https://www.chriscoffee.com/Barista-Pro ... taprog.htm

I.M.S. makes "Barista Pro Precision Insert Baskets", but are they different products between "Barista Pro Precision Insert Baskets" and "
Precision Portafilter Basket - Triple 18/22 gr - Standard"?

I'd like to know whether the hole size is same.

【Precision Portafilter Basket - Triple 18/22 gr - Standard】

If you have some recommend baskets, please give me some informations.

I just ordered the Barista Pro Basket ( 18g). I currently use a 18g VST. Interested to see if there is any difference. My current coffee is Gran Miscela Carmo Espresso Blend. Will post once i have experience with the new basket.

I got an IMS competition basket, which is the b70 series which is what you linked from chris's.

It is 0.3mm for hole Diameter.

here are the specs from the manufacturer: http://www.imsfiltri.com/filtri/b70-2t-h28-5-e/?lang=en

Just measured the hole size in my VST basket and it measures 0.3 mm.
The IMS basket from Strietman measures at 0.4 mm.
