Buy a pack of 100 paper portafilter filters to increase shot clarity and reduce channeling and sprays in your espresso extraction. Paper filter packs are available in three sizes: Flair 58, Flair PRO 2 and Classic & NEO Flex. Each size corresponds directly to the portafilter for your respective Flair!

Use these paper filters to enjoy:

  • Higher clarity from your espresso shots
  • Reduction in “spray” from bottomless portafilters – less mess
  • Liberating all of the filter’s pores for coffee to flow through more evenly

These paper filters are sized to fit on the bottom of your portafilter basket, added before adding your grounds!

Note: Classic & NEO Flex sized filters will fit the Flair Signature.

Flair Articulating Shot Mirror https://flairespresso.com/product/flair-articulating-shot-mirror/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=flair-articulating-shot-mirror Mon, 03 Apr 2023 17:02:55 +0000 https://flairespresso.com/?post_type=product&p=53034 Buy an articulating shot mirror to see the beauty of your espresso as it extracts. If you've got a Flair 58 or 58x that's shot mirror enabled, buy the version without the magnetic coin. Otherwise, you'll need the magnetic coin to attach to your Flair.

Buy a magnetic, articulating shot mirror for your Flair and easily watch the beauty of your extractions as they pour into your cup. The mirror articulates in any direction for easy maneuverability and can be used on any Flair! Be mesmerized by the beauty of your espresso, or use the mirror to help dial-in and identify channeling.

There are two different versions of the shot mirror, depending on the Flair product you own. Check your compatibility below:

  • Shot Mirror without Magnetic Coin – Must own a Flair 58 or 58x that features the magnetic disc installed into the base of the Flair post. Mostly Flair 58 bought after mid-May 2023, and Flair 58x bought after late June, 2023.
  • Shot Mirror with Adhesive Magnetic Coin – Flair 58, Flair 58 LE and Flair 58 x bought before May 2023. Use with any Flair PRO, Signature, Classic or NEO. For the Flair 58 family, attach your magnetic coin to the post on any side you prefer. For PRO, Signature, Classic and NEO attach to base of your Flair as seen in the phots in this listing.

Having trouble pulling consistent shots? Some running faster than others, even with the same coffee, dose, and grind? While it could be your coffee is too fresh (yes, this is a thing!), but more likely you need to do a better job evening out the distribution of coffee grounds across the basket before tamping.

The more evenly you distribute the grounds, the more evenly water will flow through the bed of coffee. As a result, your extractions will be more balanced, repeatable and most importantly, delicious.

When it comes to distribution tools, there is no better bang for your buck, and most would say, more effective, than the Weiss Distribution Technique, or WDT. Not all tools are created equal, however, and if you have tried this technique before and had disappointing results, it was probably the tool at fault. Needle thickness, stiffness, number, and array matter. Too much—even too few—of any and all of those, and you will struggle to have good results with the technique.

The Flair WDT Tool was designed with all of this in mind, as well as to be the perfect fit for all of our portafilters, from the NEO on up to the 58.

Specifications

  • (7) 0.25 mm diameter needles, extending 38 mm
  • 9 degrees angle of peripheral needles to center needle
  • 24 mm needle span
  • 54.7 mm long hilt, 24 mm at widest and 17.4 mm at the waist
  • Custom pedestal for storage and protection when traveling
  • Tool + Pedestal 103.5 mm tall

For getting started with WDT, we suggest the following these video instructions, linked here >

Caution: Needles are delicate, and non-replaceable. Take care when placing tool back on pedestal to align needles with channels on pedestal

Ensure consistent, repeatable results while dosing and tracking your brew ratios and flow rate. Fits under all Flair Espresso Makers.

The Flair Brew Scale fits perfectly between the oval base on all of Flair’s espresso makers, from the NEO Flex to the 58. It’s also the perfect fit for the coffee brewer in search of the tastiest, most repeatable shots of espresso!

Volumetrics leads to imperfect measurements in espresso brewing; scoops to measure coffee beans and shot glasses with volume markings to measure yield cannot be counted on when brewing by recipe. The Flair Brew Scale will provide you with the most accurate measurements—down to 0.1g, and auto-tare and auto-time functions that will keep your brews on point!

3 Modes:

Pre-Infusion Mode starts the clock at first drips and keeps it running all the way through until you lift the cup. Perfect for recipes that call for long holds and blooms.

Auto Mode starts the timer at first drips and stops it as soon as no flow has been sensed for 02 seconds. Perfect for slow ramps straight to pressure with no pre-infusion steps.

Manual Mode let’s you start and pause the timer manually throughout the brew, as well as tare and re-tare as necessary. Perfect for filter and other brewing methods.

Key Features:

  • 3 Brewing Modes
  • Hidden LCD
  • Water Resistant
  • Accuracy to 0.1 g, Max capacity 2,000 g
  • Long-lasting, Rechargeable Battery (Type-C USB)
  • 5 min Auto-Off Battery Saving Mode

Meet the Nanofoamer – V2 and Lithium.

The first handheld tool for creating super-fine micro-foamed milk in seconds. At home, many milk-based drinks get ruined because existing foamers only create runny milk with globs of stiff foam. Not the Nanofoamer. Choose between the super fine or fine nanoscreen and simply froth cafe-style milk from wherever you are. It’s an easy and simple way to create your own latte art that will pair perfectly with your delicious espresso from your Flair Espresso Maker.

Nanofoamers come in two different models: the battery operated V2 and the rechargeable Lithium version.

The Preheat Cap is meant to simplify the preheat process as an accessory for any standard brew head Flair model (see below).

The silicone Preheat Cap will fit snugly onto the bottom of your standard brew head (only compatible with NEO Flex, NEO, Classic and Signature models, not compatible with PRO2 or Flair 58). Just add onto the bottom when you’d like to preheat your cylinder, add boiling water, and wait at least 30-45 seconds before dumping.

Then, dump the preheat water through the top of your cylinder and remove the preheat cap by using the custom thumb tab that will keep you far away from any hot water. Brew as desired!

The Flow-Control 2 Portafilter is an upgrade from Flair’s original flow-control technology originally launched during their second Kickstarter campaign in 2020 and paired with the NEO.

The Flow-Control 2 improves upon this technology by adding a removable spout which allows for cleaning and de-clogging of the restricted spout. Now users can clean their portafilters as often as they want, ensuring the highest level of performance on a daily basis.

The Flow-Control 2 continues to allow brewers to add any grounds they want and lower the lever for delicious espresso. As before, this technology works by restricting the exit hole and generating pressure in the puck to ensure proper extraction times.

With proper use, each spout will enjoy a long lifespan. But, in the case of loss or damage customers can purchase a replacement pack of three (3) spouts, available in March of 2021.
