My favorite funnel is the SWORKS 49mm funnel, it's tamp through, fits in the prongs, and is tall enough to grind directly into the portafilter. I've used a few 49mm funnels and this is the easiest by far. I don't actually tamp with it on, but when I was using the original Strietman funnel it always left a ring in the grounds.

If you want to 3d print a funnel that works well, here, with a Niche Zero, give me a shout, I 'll send you the stl or stp file.

Make the two for the Sworks Design 49mm magnetic funnel. Although Walter's new funnel is on the way so it will be interesting to compare.

Hey everyone!
After reading through the 55 pages of discussion, I have just put in my order for a CT2. I can't wait to get it in August and really appreciate the community and helpful information everyone has posted on this thread!

Placed my order for a CT2 last week - Looking forward to putting all the great information in here to use soon!

Just wondering if anyone has had any recent luck getting the Inker Ishcia cups. I'd really like to use a scale for consistency and these cups seem to allow the extra clearance for one. I've been checking Ebay every day for a few weeks but haven't seen them pop up once.

I ordered them here https://edobarista.com/en/product/8-cof ... scha-white.

the only drawback is that you have to order about 10 cups to balance out the shipping costs

an alternative (though equally hard to find) could be the Napoli by porcelaine d'ancap

That was the same here so I ordered 8 of them as it was 25 euros shipping. They also have some nice other stuff as I also ordered an aeropress metal filter back then that was only 6 euros there and 25 in other webshops.
