This competition-grade basket features a Concentric Variable-Pitch (CVP) perforation design, with denser hole spacing toward the center to promote balanced water flow and even extraction across the coffee puck.

HUGH IMS CVP Filter basket
Developed with IMS, the HUGH 54.8 mm Competition Line filter basket (up to 20 g) features precision-machined perforations for stable, consistent extraction.
Even with longer pulls, it delivers a smooth, velvety body and a clean, lingering finish for a well-balanced cup.
Even Extraction to the Edge with Variable-Pitch Design
The HUGH IMS CVP (Concentric Variable-Pitch) Filter uses a concentric pattern with tighter spacing toward the center.
This variable-pitch design evens out flow and reduces dead-space effects, helping deliver consistent extraction from center to edge.
Precision Perforation
Designed for 54.8 mm portafilter baskets, 721 precisely perforated holes are distributed according to their position to achieve balanced flow and stable extraction.
The electro-polished surface refines each perforation, enhancing extraction stability and consistency.
Rounded Perforation Structure
IMS’s patented perforation process rounds the profile of each hole, minimizing sharp edges and burrs.
A Smoother, More Balanced Cup
Even with longer extractions, the body stays velvety and smooth, with a pleasant, lingering finish.
By minimizing common over-extraction drawbacks, it keeps the cup balanced across a wider extraction range—while delivering a fuller, rounder body from light to medium and dark roasts.
