What accessories do I need with a new espresso machine?

A tamper that fits your basket, a knock box, a scale and a milk jug cover the basics. Add a water filter and cleaning products to look after the machine. Tell us your machine and we can suggest a sensible starting list.

What size tamper do I need?

Match the tamper to your basket diameter. Smaller domestic machines often use 53.3mm, and larger semi-professional machines commonly use 58mm. Check your portafilter or ask our team before ordering, because a poorly fitting tamper makes an even puck harder to achieve.

Do I need a water filter for my espresso machine?

Filtered water can improve flavour and reduce limescale build-up, which helps protect the machine. The right filter depends on your water and setup, so ask us about your options, and check cartridge compatibility with your filter head.

What is a blind filter used for?

A blind filter is a basket with no holes, listed here in a 58mm size. It is used as part of routine machine cleaning. Check the cleaning instructions for your model, and ask our workshop team if you are unsure.

Can you help me check an accessory fits my machine?

Yes. Send us your machine model or visit a showroom, and we can check basket sizes, portafilter diameter and filter compatibility with you. Many items are available online and in-store, so you can also see them before you buy.
