Two independent contact points, a steel-cored silicone rest under the basket and a silicone saddle under the handle, each set separately so the portafilter sits level and does not rock while you dose, distribute and tamp. Tested against more than a hundred portafilters from 49mm to 58mm, bottomless or spouted, straight or angled handle.
