It’a detained by magnets so it doesn’t get in the basket and interfere with spreading out the grounds. Needs a clean up with a lick of sandpaper, pretty stupid but these things cost like 50 bucks /shrug

    Oh, for sure! It is annoying having to hold it as I work with it. But, I don’t have a 3D printer, so I did what I could with the tools at my disposal. I am happy with it :)

      If it’s at all magnetic (I know some stainless isn’t) then you could probably just slap a neodidlium magnet on either side to hold it. Or you could make something to locate the phlangey things on the portafilter and attach them to the outside of the ring? Could even be as simple as 4 nails with the tips ground off?

        I have neodymium magnets from another project. I should do that. They’re about 2cm in diameter, but I can probably cut them to size.
