*VERY Limited Stock*

Some timbers are functional. Purple Sandalwood is something else entirely.

Prized across Asia for centuries for its near-black grain, density, and depth of colour, Purple Sandalwood is one of the rarest handles we've offered. It's heavy, smooth, and cool to the touch in a way that rosewood or almond simply isn't.

Paired with a 54mm stainless steel head built specifically for Breville's Dual Boiler and Oracle group head - this is the portafilter for home baristas who want the best of everything on the bench.

Key Features

* 54mm bottomless (naked) portafilter design
* 304 Stainless steel portafilter head for excellent heat stability
* Genuine Purple Sandalwood handle – strong, premium and beautiful to touch
* Colour: Near black with natural grain variations.
* Includes 18–20g double shot filter basket

Why You'll Love It

A bottomless (naked) portafilter removes the traditional spouts, allowing espresso to flow directly from the basket into your cup. This gives you instant visual feedback during extraction so you can dial in faster and more accurately.

Benefits include:

* Identify channeling immediately
* Improve distribution and tamping technique
* Achieve thicker crema and cleaner flavour
* Simplify cleaning and maintenance

It’s one of the most effective upgrades for improving espresso consistency.
Dialing In: Quick Setup Guide

How to use (quick guide)
1. Dose: 18–20g.
2. Distribute & tamp: Distribution tool → level → tamp evenly.
3. Pull the shot: Aim for a 1:2 ratio (e.g., 18g in → 36g out) in ~25–30 sec, adjusting grind as needed
More Info

Purple Sandalwood has been considered one of the world's most prized timbers for over a thousand years. Historically reserved for royal furniture and fine instruments, it's valued for its exceptional density, near-black colouring, and the way it develops a deeper lustre over time with use. No two handles are identical - the grain pattern, tone, and depth vary subtly from piece to piece.

In practical terms it's a pleasure to hold. The density gives it a satisfying weight. The natural oils in the wood mean it feels smooth and warm rather than cold and clinical. After a few weeks of daily use, it only gets better.

The bottomless design A bottomless portafilter removes the traditional spouts, letting espresso flow directly from the basket. You get an unobstructed view of the extraction — channelling, uneven flow, and distribution issues are immediately visible. Fix what you can see, and your shots improve fast. Benefits include:

Identify channelling immediately Improve your distribution and tamp technique Achieve more crema and cleaner flavour Easier cleaning - no dead angles or trapped residue.

Should have done this year's ago

I have been using a Breville DB for years, on my second one. Have always been able to get good coffees but had to constantly fiddle with grind and dose to stop channelling. Recently nothing I tried seemed to work. As soon as I replaced the stock diffuser and screen with this, every shot is perfect. Had to reduce the dose slightly, but every shot is way more balanced without anywhere near the amount of adjustment I used to have to do.
Highly recommended this and I really should have done this year's ago. For the price it is an absolute bargain.

Perfect Upgrade

Noticed the extraction on my Breville Dual Boiler wasn't pouring equally from the twin portafilter and discovered the plastic diffusion plate had a large crack so ordered a new plate, screen and seal. Received it the day after ordering so will definitely use the Coffee Nerd team again. Well done guys!

Bottomless portafilter

Instantly improved shots! Then decided to upgrade shower screen and get a magnetic dose collar and needles to prevent channeling and I wish I did it years ago. If you’re going to spend decent cash on a machine these are a small further cost for big reward.

Coffee Nerd, is it worth your money?

I make the answer simple, yes it is. I bought the bottomless portafilter with the aluminium rosewood handle and the high diffusion espresso shower screen, both for the Breville Express machine. I am still trialling the product to perfect my coffee but having these items definately made my coffee machine produce a lot better coffee with plenty of crema on my black coffee. The service and information I got from the company is also top of the range. I strongly recommend these products. So if you are not sure, go for it, you wont be disappointed.
