“BIG BANG” - the latest innovation from IMS

With fewer, smaller holes and with a slightly smaller hole pattern - basket holes do not go to the edge like regular IMS competition baskets.

-  “FH” in the code means flat base
-  “BB” stands for big bang hole-boring pattern

Most IMS baskets have 715 holes with Ø1.75mm - the BB has 585 holes with Ø1.50mm

The basket's hole pattern is unique due to its spacing - which gets narrower towards the center. This “Big Bang” pattern enables more flow through the center to offset side channeling. 

The resulting extraction is very uniform which emphasises the sweetness of the coffee and reduces acidity, allowing for a very balanced cup.
