12g Portafilter Basket

12g Portafilter Basket

The Meraki 12g Portafilter Basket is a stainless steel 58mm basket for espresso recipes that use less coffee than a standard double basket. Its perforated base supports extraction while the shallower coffee bed provides a practical starting point for smaller servings.

Treat 12g as a nominal dose and adjust for coffee density, roast and available headspace. Use it with a compatible 58mm portafilter and compare the 18g portafilter basket when you want a larger recipe.

FAQ

What is a 12g portafilter basket for?

It is intended as a starting point for smaller espresso doses than a typical 18g double basket.

Is it a 58mm basket?

Yes. The product imagery and listing identify it as a 58mm 12g basket.

Should you dose exactly 12 grams?

Not always. Adjust within a sensible range based on coffee density, roast, puck depth and headspace.

Do you need to change the grind when switching baskets?

Often yes. Basket depth and dose change puck resistance, so re-dial the grind while keeping yield and taste under observation.

How do you keep the perforations clean?

Rinse after brewing and inspect the base for blocked holes. Use approved cleaning methods when coffee oils build up.
