The crema I get from the naked is very aerated, in contrast to the sliky smooth crema I get from the spouted Pf. It also settles alot faster and I find it lacks the stability that you get when using spouts. As for the mouthfeel, I find the taste from the bottomless is cleaner, but lacks balance. I pick up a bias towards the sweeter end of the scale. The clean flavours are usually those from the acidity and sweetness, and with my style of roasting, these are in no need of highlighting. As for richer flavour, I personally find this in more abundance through the spouts. When I use a naked I tend to dial my machine temp up a notch to compensate for the loss of back of the mouth feel, but then it borders on too hot.It could come down to the age and style of my roasts, basket size and machine setup too. I do have a couple of nakeds, for various machines and they come out for training and showing off all the time. Definately an integral part of any barista tool arsenal.
