You could just get an extra cup, not the entire portafilter. Pop out the
cup in your current portafilter and remove the retaining spring that runs
around the inside of the hoop. This will allow the cups to drop into and
lift out of the portafilter easily. You can fill/tamp both cups before you
Mine is always stiff and feels like it's grinding after Cafiza but, like
