Normcore 58mm Espresso Dosing Funnel V2, Magnetic Dosing Ring, 18mm Anodized Aluminum with 15 Neodymium Fit 58 mm Bottomless Portafilter, Silver

I wanted to streamline our espresso workflow. I added the Normcore Magnetic Dosing Funnel V2 to our kit because loading up the portafilter & using the WDT was causing a mess on the counter. This funnel stays put and looks great. is it required? No. Does it work great? Yes! The Good: What Works Well Rock-solid attachment: The magnets are impressively strong. It snaps onto the portafilter and doesn't budge. WDT’s Best Friend: It provides the necessary height to use a WDT tool without making a mess. Low Profile: Unlike some "tall" funnels, this one is compact enough to fit under many grinder dispensers while still attached to the portafilter. Premium Finish: The matte black anodized aluminum feels incredibly durable and matches high-end espresso gear perfectly. The Not-So-Good: Price Point: It is definitely a premium option. You can find plastic versions for less, but they won't have the same weight or magnetic security. Pro Tips: Maintenance: This is anodized metal; do not put it in the dishwasher. Just wipe it with a dry cloth or a dedicated coffee brush. Magnet Care: Keep the bottom magnets clean. If coffee oils or grounds build up on the magnets, the "snap" won't feel as secure. Compatibility: Make sure you pick the right size!

Perfect fit and high quality paint and magnets. Easy to clean, feels solid. The pant finish minimizes coffee retention.

Did you know there are 2 different types of dosing funnels, one with a inner collar/lip and one with an outer one? the normcore dosing funnel has an outer collar/lip, which means it secures to the outside of the portafilter basket, keeping it lined up. i didn't realize when i bought it, but the advantages to the outer lip is that there is no space or gap when the dosing funnel is removed (the inner lip takes up space along the edge of the basket, leaving a ring of space without coffee grounds). having the lip on the outside means, when you're done with your wdt, you don't have to do anything else besides tamp. at first, i was getting grounds all over the place when i was tamping because the grounds would push out to the sides as i was pushing down. i realized that the tamp (normcore v4 tamper) fit perfectly in the dosing funnel, so before i removed the funnel, i would lightly tamp with the tamper, giving me a little more space to place the tamper without worrying about grounds going all over the place. the magnets on this dosing funnel work pretty well, although, depending on your basket, it may work better than others. when magnetically attaching the funnel to different baskets, flipping the funnel upside down and shaking, holding the basket, the dosing funnel held pretty securely to the pressurized baskets that came w/ my delonghi, as well as the basket that came with my bottomless portafilter. the ims precision competition basket however, doesn't hold as securely. i thought at first it was because the lip of the basket was too big, but it turns out it's the same size as everything else. it turns out that while most of the top of the basket is flat, the inner edge is raised, maybe to help keep grounds from coming out. that raised bump on the top of the basket, is taller than the other baskets, so the metal that is to come in contact with the magnet is further away compared to the other baskets. still, it holds it securely enough while using it normally, so i won't be doing any modifications to the ims basket. the normcore also flares out at the top, making it wider. this helps with wdt-ing, allowing to work at more angles compared to the straight walled versions. it also makes pouring your grounds into the basket easier. although a little more expensive compared to other dosing funnels, i am very satisfied with how it makes it easy to wdt and tamp without making a mess. there was a little learning curve/trial and error to find the best way to use it, but i figured it out on day 2. would definitely consider buying another if i get a different machine with a different portafilter size

Definitely a game changer! Works great for keeping the ground coffee in place, inside the portafilter. Using the WDT is much easier since buying this

Perfect fit on the Normcore bottomless portafilter. The magnets are definitely strong enough to hold the funnel in place. I'm wondering if the other reviews stating otherwise are using portafilters made with a less magnetic material. No issues with magnets falling out either (based on daily use over the last two months)

It looks modern and stylish. The funnel fits my 51mm portafilter very well and does stay put if you're careful inverting it. It's solidly built and feels durable. It greatly helps keep the countertop tidy and allows me to use a large dose before tamping. The one improvement I would ask for is slightly stronger magnets that would hold more securely when I invert it. I tried to place it over the cup of grounds, and the funnel slipped off when I flipped them back over. It kinda works, you just have to be super careful. Better to just pour the grounds into it.

Used multiple times every day and I love it. As the photo shows, I can dump the dose right into the portafilter without worry about spilling any grounds, a few taps on the side and everything is in the basket. Actually bought it for a Lelit 57mm basket and it fits just fine. Magnets are stronger than expected.

perfect. no issues.

Perfect. I was looking for an upgrade and this is great. Strong magnets and fits my ECM bottomless Portafilter perfectly. Happy I purchased from all the other options available.

I bought a cheap one for AED 35 . It was well made and the magnets were good, but it had an inner lip that disturbed the coffee and didn’t stay in the stand. So I returned it. Now, this cost x 8 times more, but wow! It’s so well made , there are 12 really high quality magnets and it works so much better. It’s just not worth the money. , hence the four stars… Now for AED 100? That would be worth it and five stars….

Facilito mucho mi proceso para crear espresso, ya que antes batallaba mucho para poner todo el cafe que necesitaba en la canasta del portafiltro, y por mas que tratada de tener mucho cuidado, solia perder un poco de cafe en este proceso pero con este dosificador eso ya es historia. Lo estuve utilizando tanto con el portafiltro que viene en la Delonghi Stilosa como con el Normcore y lo que les puedo decir es que en ambos lo hace bien, sin embargo, noto que es ligeramente mejor con el portafiltro Normcore.

Simple, bonito, útil

We recently added the Normcore 51mm Magnetic Dosing Funnel to our espresso setup, and it’s been a game-changer for improving workflow and reducing mess during dosing and distribution. The build quality is excellent, solid, well-machined, and feels premium in hand. The magnetic attachment is strong and secure, snapping onto the portafilter with satisfying precision. However, unfortunately, the funnel did not perfectly fit our portafilter, leaving some gaps in-between, so few coffee grinds slips through. We use the funnel in combination with our WDT tool and tamper, it makes my routine more engaging and fun. One of the standout features is how much cleaner and more consistent our dosing process has become. The sleek, matte finish also complements the rest of our espresso gear nicely. Cleaning is effortless—just a quick rinse or wipe, and it’s good to go. The compact design makes it easy to store, and it doesn’t take up unnecessary space on the counter. For its quality, no doubt it's a good value for money, but not cheap at all.
