rancilio silvia with synesso ridgeless double basket/sprong - naked portafilter?

[acid_rider Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close acid_rider]

hello everyone
i have rancilio silvia (2010 model) and using a synesso ridgeless double basket/spring to make double-shots exclusively.
where (in Melbourne?) can I buy a naked portafilter for my machine that will fit the synesso ridgeless double basket/spring? Is it likely to improve the double-shots significantly?
thank you in advance.

By itself, not at all! ...But it should help you to improve your technique, which can improve your shots significantly!

I bought one from coffee-a-roma today.
it has a 21 gram basket so i weighed exactly 21grams and made a very nice double shot, just like on you-tube. it must have been the beginners luck!! Huge amount of crema in a 60ml cup.
This basket seems like it can take more than 21 grams, I think 23grams will fit and may be even 24 grams....
