Q2: Does ir fit Ec190? --Sorry but no Q3: It comes whit a basket (Filter) or just the Portafilter? --The basket comes with it. 2 shot basket. Attention 1: Leaking and splatter can be very messy, but are EXTREMELY common, it is called Espresso channeling. This is not a defect of the portafilter itself, but instead, is your coffee telling you that there's room for improvement in your preparation process (grind size, tamping, distribution, etc.) We would like to suggest you to try below steps: 1. Try grinding a bit finer 2. Ensuring to use the right amount of coffee. 3. Utilize a distributor to make a well-leveled puck for even pressing 4. Using enough and even pressure during tamping. Attention 2: Doesn't fit and leaks? We would like to suggest you to try to push it further to the right to seal it than the stock portafilter. The original being about 6oclock as the locking point, the bottomless had to be turned to around 4/5oclock position. Review: Works great after some practice! - I initially had trouble using this with our basic De'Longhi espresso machine. Would get spray everywhere. It turns out it was user error. After getting a better grinder, better practice filling and tamping, I was able to get it to work. Makes for great espressos. So just be aware it takes some practice to prep the coffee puck to get it work as you might expect. Review: Holds 18g just right - This bottomless portafilter feels solid and well made. The stainless steel body has good weight to it and doesn’t feel cheap. The handle is comfortable and sturdy, and it locks in securely on my machine without any issues. The fit is good, and it’s a great upgrade if you want better visibility on your extractions. Once dialed in, the shots pull smoothly and evenly. Definitely a noticeable improvement over the stock portafilter. For the price, it’s a strong value and feels built to last. I had a extra handle and switch out to make more my aesthetics ## Features - 【Compatibility】 This two ears portafilter 51mm fits Delonghi ECP3420/BCO430/EC260 etc 2 ears coffee machine.

I had a extra handle and switch out to make more my aesthetics ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A bottomless/unpressurized portafilter/sump that fits the DeLonghi EC702 *by S***S on January 5, 2023* OK: it fits, and is just a tiny bit snug/hard to insert sometimes, but I presume that it'll wear a bit over time and get easier. Also, it's better too snug than not snug enough (I presume). I wanted a bottomless portafilter AKA sump so that I could make bigger cups of espresso on my somewhat ancient (but still running) DeLonghi EC702 espresso machine (I'm not going to bother to google whether or not the L in DeLonghi is actually supposed to be upper case) ...the original portafilter is pressurized, and even when full of packed grounds, can barely produce an ounce or two of espresso... let the water run any longer than that and it's coming out almost clear, resulting in an Americano (best case) or just undrinkably watery coffee (worst case). Being bottomless, you can use the deepest 51mm diameter filter basket you can find... the one I'm using is a '4 cup' basket, which is roughly 1.25 inches deep, the bottom of which sticks out just a bit below the body of the portafilter (ie: where the 'bottomless' thing comes in handy). With this, I put in quite a bit of ground espresso, tamp it down medium-firm, and rotate the tamping thingy (yes, I'm sure it has a specific name) a bit as I finish tamping to leave a smooth, level surface. This seems to give me a decent amount of espresso (I add a bit of foamed milk, and drink it from a mug) and most mornings, I can resist the urge to make a second one despite my gluttony. I've no idea if the way I make it is the 'right' way since I've never been a barista and don't have the patience to sit through most Youtube videos... a friend (who HAS been a barista) has promised to come by sometime and observe/critique my technique and I'm open to self-improvement. Anyway (now that you're read all this nonsense) this particular bottomless 51mm sump was one of several available on Amazon when I shopped, and it seemed to be the sturdiest looking/least annoying of the bunch, so I bought it. It's pleasantly chunky, which suits my paw-like hand NAD the look and feel of the EC702, the handle is shiny and comfortable, and it seems like it ought to last a while (the threaded rod at the end of the handle is thick and coarsely threaded, and goes into a metal receptacle; nothing screws directly into plastic, so that's good). It wasn't exactly inexpensive at about $36 at the time of purchase, but the others weren't that much cheaper and looked worse. Besides, not to jinx myself, but I gotta assume the lifespan of a consumer-grade espresso machine like the EC702 is somewhat more finite than that of this sump/handle. I would definitely recommend this item if you want to use a bottomless/unpressurized portafilter on your compatible (51mm) espresso machine: it seems well made and it works as intended. -Scott :-) ## Frequently Bought Together - 51mm portafilter for Delonghi ECP3420/EC155/BCO430/EC260, 51mm bottomless portafilter 2 ears, Stainless Steel Replacement Parts for Delonghi Handle - De'Longhi Stilosa Manual Espresso Machine, Latte & Cappuccino Maker, 15 Bar Pump Pressure + Milk Frother Steam Wand, Black / Stainless, EC260BK, 13.5 x 8.07 x 11.22 inches - IMS Precision 16-18g Filter Basket compatible with Delonghi La Specialista, DL2TH26E --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/421064388-51mm-bottomless-portafilter-2-ears-for-delonghi-ecp3420-bco430-ec260](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/421064388-51mm-bottomless-portafilter-2-ears-for-delonghi-ecp3420-bco430-ec260) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
