Overview

The Buck is a naked portafilter crafted from a block of forged, machined, and polished stainless steel. It is designed to sit flat on a countertop, eliminating the need for the awkward hanging-off-the-edge-while-tamping of standard portafilters. Both the FKM Rubber and Solid Teak handles have a solid stainless core which give the Buck the heft and strength to last a lifetime.

While optimized for use with any Unibasket size, Buck will work with all standard 58mm baskets.

Availability & Delivery

Teak is now shipping. The FKM version will be available again soon. 

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™

Compatibility

  • Fits standard 58mm portafilter groups incorporating E61 design with exposed group, including:
    La Marzocco (all except KB-90), Slayer, Synesso, Kees VanDer Westen, Decent, Flair 58, etc.
  • Victoria Arduino & La Marzocco Micra and Mini: The BUCK will lock in and seal, however it locks in significantly to the right of center potentially interfering with position of steam wand if left in group while steaming.
  • Not compatible with Breville/Sage or Gaggia Classic Pro, or similar proprietary non-E61 groups.
