Lelit 57mm portafilter basket spring
original spare parts
Portafilter Spring. Sits just inside your portfilter and holds your filter basket in place. These little bits of wire hold the basket inside the portafilter. In a sense, we owe our ability to even make espresso to these bits of metal: think of them like the ‘O’ ring on a space shuttle solid rocket booster. Small, inexpensive… but if one breaks at the wrong time, well Houston, we have a *major* problem! Always add a few of these bad boys to your order, just in case!
The Lelit Filterholder Spring (Part Code: MC056 / 005820) is designed for 57 mm portafilters.
Portafilter & Spring Specs
- Portafilter Size: 57 mm
