Well,
I bought some new baskets from coffeeparts! The guys there directed me to the ASTORIA ones (compatible with EM6910)
Coffee Parts | Astoria Spare Parts - 1a/2a Series Group Head and Portafilters
My first impression was: Wow, these ones have a lot of holes in it! That meant that I had to move a couple of notch finer on my grinder
I bought the triple one: Holds 24g of coffee easily, but for my taste it was too strong. Also, 24g is not the right dosage for the EM6910 (wet puck)... I guess 26g might be... still, too much.... need less!
I haven't tested the single one, which should hold around 10-12 grams of coffee (instead of the 14g on the original one of SB). Will do some brewing today and let you know.
Ahh, one caveat, the Astoria baskets require a thinner spring in the porta filter... quite difficult to remove if not!
