IDR Intelligent Dosing Ring Portafilter Tool

IDR Intelligent Dosing Ring Portafilter Tool

Want to increase the consistency of the dose? Want to stop finger leveling of the grind in front of your patrons? Is there a need for speed? Want to reduce coffee waste? Want to stop the barista’s black finger? Do you want to take your espresso dosing to the next level? The answer is IDR! Precision engineered and manufactured in Sweden. This espresso dosing tool is stainless steel with a silver coating. You can choose from one of multiple color dosing rings (optional and sold separately unless purchased as a bundle). With the IDR you can achieve consistent dosing, distribution, & leveling of grinds in the basket in one step! Most importantly, the IDR will in effect pay for itself in several ways!

• Less waste – The excess dosing of ground espresso coffee can be pushed back into the doser for the next extraction. This helps reducing coffee bean cost and in effect make the IDR pay for itself alone!
• Improved consistency in the cup – With a more effective and accurate dose in the filter basket, the quality in the cup will be more consistent from barista to barista. The consistency will lead to returning customers even though there may be a different barista serving their favorite beverages.
• Increased speed of service – no one wants to wait for their espresso-based beverage anymore. The speed of service is one of the keys to success. The IDR increases the barista’s speed in achieving a proper dose.

Notes:

1. We have confirmed that the IDR works well with:
   • E61 type commercial portafilters
   • Most 56-58mm portafilters, including Nuova Simonelli/Bezzera/Pasquini (angles in at 45 degrees) and Dalle Corte.
   • Most doserless and doser grinders.
2. With Lelit, it can fit with very little overlap.
3. Please note this dosing tool will not fit, nor work with the following portafilters/grinders:
   • UNIC – portafilter is too high and when the IDR is on top.
   • San Marco – portafilter has three lips that prevent the IDR from dosing correctly.
   • La Spaziale and 53mm portafilters.
