Every home barista loves the naked portafilter for its real-time visual feedback.
Yet, for the longest time, splitting a bottomless double-shot extraction required a compromise. You either had to revert to a double-spouted portafilter—obscuring your view of saturation and development—or rely on the glass beaker, accepting its uneven distribution of crema and body.
Surely, there must be a better way.
The Symmetry of the Split
Collect your extraction directly into Splitshot, and its dual-chamber geometry—with a dedicated rear channel—will automatically equalize one body of liquid into two identical portions.
Once your pull is complete, simply hold, tilt, and pour. In doing so, gravity will naturally sever the connection between the two chambers, to yield two perfectly equal single shot servings.
From morning cappuccinos to evening espresso tonics, let Splitshot bring simplicity to your workflow.
Added Versatility:
Crema Separator:
If you favour clarity and sweetness, you can also use Splitshot as a crema separator – just terminate your pour early to isolate and omit the crema layer.
Extract Chilling:
If you wish to preserve volatile aromatics during extraction, place SPLITSHOT in the refrigerator to pre-chill it before use. (Note: Do not freeze, to safeguard its premium ceramic coating).
