Improve your single dosing experience with our silicone bellows, designed to significantly reduce retention and deliver precise doses every time*. This flexible silicone bellows seamlessly fits between your machine's stock hopper and lid, transforming it into an efficient blower. Achieve minimal retention, ranging from 0.0g to 0.2g per grind*, for consistently accurate results. Designed in-house, our silicone version surpasses the previous 3D printed model (discontinued August 2024) in flexibility, durability, and airtightness, ensuring more effective retention clearing with every pump. Say goodbye to dosing inconsistencies and hello to precision with our superior silicone bellows.


[News]

The evolved silicone version of this bellows is now available! Pre-orders will be shipped first, starting August 26th, 2024. If you've purchased the 3D printed version previously, be sure to use the coupon that was included in your shipment for upgrading to the silicone version, valid until August 1st, 2025. 


[Design Features]

Simplicity and maximum effectiveness are our design goals, and both are carefully infused in our bellows' design.

  • The bellows complements the grinder's original design rather than replacing it and upsetting its visual balance
  • Super easy installation takes less than a minute
  • No tools necessary for installation
  • No warranty-voiding modifications needed
  • Small manual included with assembly instructions and best use tips
  • Bellows works even if you prefer to store beans in the hopper (though less effectively)
  • Odour-free
  • Special surface treatment for reduced attraction to dust
  • Logo is hidden on the inner surface rather than around the outside


[Compatibility]

This bellows is compatible with:

    • Encore ESP
    • Encore

    And is also compatible with:

    • Virtuoso
    • Virtuoso+
    • Sette 30
    • Sette 270
    • Sette 270Wi
    • Vario+
    • Vario W+
    • Vario
    • Vario W

    [Additional Notes]

    The bellows will add an additional 3.0cm (1 3/16in) to the height of your hopper after installation, but you need additional space above it. Measuring from the top of your lid without the bellows, you need about 9-13cm (3 1/2 ~ 5 1/8in) of clearance space to operate it comfortably.

     

    [*Disclaimers]

    • The finest grind range (0-20) may decrease bellows effectiveness due to restricted air flow. Adjust to a coarser range (20+) while pumping bellows to fully clear retention.
    • Grinding after changing grind size or using darker roasts/oilier beans may still cause some retention
    • Achieve the best results with lighter roasted beans and at a consistent grind size setting
    • The coarser you grind, the more likely you'll achieve zero retention
    • The more beans you store in the hopper, the less effective the bellows may be due to restricted airflow
    • Does not include the grinder nor the stock hopper
    • Some Baratza hoppers are slightly thinner, which may cause the bellows to fit loosely around it. In this case, add a little bit of tape around the rim to increase its thickness before installing bellows.
