VST filter baskets.

Koffee_Kosmo

Anyone stocking the VST baskets in Brisbane I ask this for a reason as I need to take in my Barista tamper for fitting prior to getting one or possibly 2 VST baskets (18gr & 22gr ) KK

Just posted a video clip of the 22g VST. http://wineofthebean.posterous.com/22g-vst-naked-portafilter-in-action

Looks good to me WotB, you should be happy with that.

I'm in a similar position to KK, looking for someone that stocks the 18 gram in Adelaide ???

I'm in a similar position to KK and Dry Bean in that I also am looking for someone that stocks the 18 gram baskets in Brisbane.

I got mine through One Drop.  They may still have some for you Brisbanites.

I cant find a phone number for them to ring and check? KK

WotB

I reckon they may not have a phone, except mobile.  All of my contacts have been via email or twitter.

I have a friend in the US, I'm sure she would be prepared to post a few over if a group purchase was of interest. :-\

Just tweeted "One Drop" to see if they have any left. I would be up for one of each of them for a play. From memory postage to Oz was circa $85 but a heap could be packed into that box. If we can get an order approaching 40 baskets and local postage would be $5-6 at most it starts to become worth it.

I'm interested in a 22 gram basket.

WotB

The $85 quoted postage was an error.  It's pretty much $5-6 to ship to Australia. I bartered one of my mesh pourover filters for a 22g VST.

Its still  $85 on the website! So I don't think it is a mistake, I have a few coming and I might have some spare if a few locals fall through on their interest. Brett

They will fit my Bezzera BZ40 And yes they will fit any machine that uses 58mm baskets KK

ok ta kk

WotB

You will likely need a naked PF for the 22g ones.  They are just too deep to fit into a standard PF.

I'm a sceptic as well AM, but $43 ain't a lot of money and I would love to be proven wrong, besides I'm about due a new basket. Trust me the review will be exactly as I see it. ;D

You know how to contact me if you want to try one AM, perhaps KK could bring his tamp to check for fitment also. Either 18 or 22g I have Enjoying the flavours from my shots still. I have been updosing of late tho, 20-21 grams in the 18g basket as with the weather changing the pucks at 19g were getting sloppy.

Hi guys, vst baskets have landed, postal orders have gone today and other pre orders are available for collection. Don't have any more 18's left - more on the way early July. 22's in stock but you will need a deep pf or naked for these. charlie
