Description

The same breakthrough that revolutionized 58mm machine extractions, now available for your favorite 49mm machine.

Overview

Say hello to the 49mm Unifilter®. You asked, we delivered. The revolutionary Unifilter- where the basket and the portafilter become one and the extractions are unprecedented-is now available for 49mm machines. If you own an Olympia Cremina ('67 - 2023) or a La Pavoni pre-Millennium (before Aug 2000), your coffee and your palate will thank you for this upgrade.

Built in exactly the same way as its big brother, we start with a solid mass of stainless that goes through a series of transformative manufacturing process to create a seamless, hardened, polished, and everlasting form to further enhance your espresso. Just like its 58mm counterpart, it is available with a solid stainless steel cored FKM rubber or Teak handle. Re-envisioned, reinvented, recreated, and fully revolutionary.

Material

BODY: The Unifilter is made from a solid piece of Stainless 304 material. All of the holes are individually laser-ablated and go right up to the vertical wall edge, giving a true 49mm puck from top to bottom. Made for 16-18g shots (depending on the roast level and/or bean density).

HANDLES: All handles have a solid stainless steel core to give them heft and longevity. That is covered either by a thick FKM rubber sleeve, or a cored-out solid piece of solid teak wood sanded and finished with a non-VOC oil.

Compatibility

The Unifilter® 49 is designed to fit all eras and models of Olympia Cremina machines, as well as the La Pavoni 49mm (pre-Millennium) home lever machines. Not compatible with 51mm La Pavoni machines (those manufactured after Aug 2000).
