OE Ipanema 49mm, inner diameter of top??

Want to talk espresso but not sure which forum? If so, this is the right one.

To those who own the 49mm Ipanema dosing funnel from OE, would you please post the inside diameter of the top end, opposite the 49mm. I would like to verify if a dosing cup will fit in it (58mm or otherwise). Yes, I already asked OE a week ago and have not received a response.

Thanks

Thanks to erik82 who tells me the inner diameter of the wider opening of the 49mm OE Ipanema dosing funnel measures a tad bit larger then 58mm. So the dosing funnel can effectively be used as a 58mm to 49mm reducer. In my case, this will allow a 58mm dosing cup that comes with the Niche Zero to be used with a 49mm Olympia Cremina basket.

This is theory.

Yep this is how I've used it for the last 3 to 4 years.

As I mentioned in my PM to you, the Niche cup fits in the top, but it's not totally symmetrical and wobbles slightly.
