    One portafilter wall mount in 51 mm version, with screws. The pictured portafilter is an example of use and is not included.

Why this helps make better coffee

You want to weigh and level out your coffee, but your second filter holder is also on the worktop. First, see what equipment you really need while making coffee. A spot on the wall can be handy for a spare holder, provided you can easily reach it.

This black wall mount is designed to hold a suitable 51 mm portafilter. Mount the holder next to your coffee station and hang the portafilter there after cleaning it.

This is especially useful if you alternate between two portafilters. The one you use to brew coffee can warm up in the machine, while the other is kept out of the way. The holder is intended for storage; it does not heat your portafilter.

Your spare portafilter hangs neatly at your coffee station.

Who is this suitable for?

For the home barista with a compatible DeLonghi Dedica or Smeg portafilter who wants to store a second filter holder neatly. Even on a small countertop, a wall mount can provide some relief, as long as you can still get a good grip on the portafilter.

First, choose a spot where the handle can hang freely. Take into account the space above the machine and any cabinet doors that still need to be able to open.

For whom is this not necessary?

Do you only have one portafilter and leave it in the machine between brewing? Then a wall mount probably won't add much.

This 51 mm version is not a substitute for a 54 or 58 mm holder. Did you buy a different portafilter than the original? Then check that portafilter, not just the brand of your machine.

Does this fit your machine, routine or use?

  • Compatibility

    Barista Essentials lists the DeLonghi Dedica and Smeg ECF01/ECF02 as examples of this size. That helps you choose, but the filter holder you actually use must fit in the holder.

    When choosing a replacement portafilter, also pay attention to the shape of the head and the protruding lugs with which it screws into the machine. If in doubt, include the exact model in your question to the supplier. Never force a portafilter into the holder.

Advice from Geert-Jan the Barista Man

With over 10 years of experience in providing barista workshops at home, at businesses, and in Amsterdam, Geert-Jan is happy to share his advice.

Who is Geert-Jan?

From practice:

My advice: consider where your filter holder is when you weigh and tamp. If you have to keep picking it up to make room, a fixed spot on the wall could simplify your routine. Make sure you can easily grab it with one hand from there.

My advice:

My advice: buy this holder if you really want to give a loose portafilter a permanent place. In a small coffee corner, that can offer more convenience than yet another tray on your counter. Do start with the right size; a neat storage place is only useful if you can easily take the filter holder in and out.

Here's how to use this in your coffee routine

A barista tool only really works well when you know where it fits into your routine.

Get into the routine:

After cleaning: store your extra portafilter.

Usage:

After cleaning: store your extra portafilter.

Geert-Jan's tip:

Before brewing, place the portafilter you want to use back into the machine in time to warm up. Taking a cold portafilter off the wall and immediately making espresso gives you a different start than working with a preheated portafilter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Een hand hangt een portafilter in de 51 mm wandhouder

Does this holder fit a DeLonghi Dedica?

The supplier lists the DeLonghi Dedica for the 51 mm version. Are you using a different portafilter than the original? Then ask whether that specific version is suitable.

Can I use it for a 54 mm Sage?

No, Barista Essentials offers this holder in 51 and 58 mm and states that they do not have a 54 mm portafilter. Do not choose the closest size.

Does my portafilter stay warm on the wall?

No. If you want to start with a warm portafilter, let it preheat in your espresso machine before brewing.

Is the filter holder shown in the photo included?

No. You get the wall mount with screws. The portafilter in the photo shows how to use the mount.

How do I keep the wall holder clean?

Remove it with one of your soft barista cloths and dry it afterwards. Also clean your portafilter before hanging it up; the wall holder is not a receptacle for coffee grounds.
