Slight flavor improvement, but very messy
I found that it slightly improved the flavor of the espresso, but I had several problems with it that caused me to stop using it. First, it didn’t fit quite right in my E C M Porter filter. It didn’t fit down flush and set between an eight to a quarter of an inch above the rim. However, it did still fit into the brew head. The next problem I had with it was that the liquid came out in multiple streams instead of consolidating into a single stream in the center. Particularly when used with the filter paper, some of these streams were along the outer edge of the basket and required me to switch from the shot glass that I was using to a larger glass. Even then, occasionally, a stream would start at the edge underneath the handle and actually flow down the handle ways before falling. In short, proved to be too messy to warrant the benefits.
