Premium Sit-Flat Naked Portafilter

Overview

The BUCK™ is a naked portafilter crafted from a block of forged, machined, and polished stainless steel. Much like the Unifilter, it is designed to sit flat on a countertop, eliminating the need for the awkward hanging-off-the-edge-while-tamping of standard portafilters. Available in 2 styles of handle, both the FKM Rubber and Solid Teak handles have a solid stainless core which gives it the heft and strength to last a lifetime. While optimized for use with any Unibasket™ size, the BUCK will work with all standard 58mm baskets. Available for PREORDER now, shipping by mid November.

Materials

The BUCK™ is a crafted from a block of forged, machined, and polished stainless steel. The handle core is solid stainless and runs the length of the handle. 

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 that will patina over the years like a piece of fine Danish furniture. They are both built for life.

Included in package

  • 1 BUCK, with either FKM Rubber or Teak handle.
  • 1 Portafilter retention spring, optimized for Unibasket™
  • 1 Pack of 58mm EPFs

Compatibility

  • Fits standard 58mm portafilter groups with exposed group, including:
    LaMarzocco (all except KB-90), Slayer, Synesso, Kees VanDer Westen, E61 group head, Decent, Flair 58, etc.

Victoria Arduino Compatibility Note: The BUCK is compatible with VA machines, however it locks in significantly to the right of center. 

Availability

The BUCK has started shipping in September 2023. New orders should be delivered by mid-November 2023.

Quality

It's not made like a normal portafilter, and it shows in the quality that Weber is known for. A "normal" portafilter uses casting and chrome plating processes. By contrast we forge, machine, and polish our BUCK to be a piece of functional design engineering made to last a lifetime and only get better with age.

Materials

We use only the finest raw materials, with work-hardened stainless steel that runs all the way through the handle, and either solid teak or FKM rubber handle. The BUCK is heavy, heirloom quality, and ready to accept any size of Unibasket™ or other 58mm basket.
