Cross-section to scale, from the dimensions IMS publishes for this basket. The border is what seats in the portafilter — not the tamper figure the size is usually quoted by. See why “58mm” isn’t one standard.

That model name is an IMS product code — series, cup count, height and hole pattern are all encoded in it. IMS basket codes, decoded explains how to read one, and lists every code covered here.

This basket is one of a line. See every IMS B62.5 Competition basket compared — the whole ladder of heights and variants on one page, with the three diameters they share.

Fits these machines

The Nanotech-coated version of IMS’s standard 54mm double basket. Same geometry as the uncoated B62.52TH24E — Ø62.5mm border, Ø54mm internal body, 24mm deep, ridgeless, 583 hexagonal holes, Ø53mm tamper — with a non-stick quartz surface added.

IMS lists the two versions on a single capacity row (B62.52TH24E/NT), which is the clearest possible statement that the coating changes nothing about dose: 14–17 g dark, 15.5–18 g medium, 17.5–20 g light for both.

So what does the coating buy you

Cleanliness, not extraction. The puck knocks out cleanly rather than leaving a skin on the walls, and coffee oils do not polymerise onto the surface the way they do on bare steel. On a Breville with a built-in grinder — where you are often pulling several shots back to back without a proper clean-down — that is a real convenience rather than a marginal one.

If you want the cheaper option and do not mind scrubbing, the uncoated E version is otherwise the same basket.

Four heights, and that is the whole coated family — the comparison table above is IMS’s own.

Fitment

IMS names the B62 series as its 54mm Breville/Sage line, and each machine below states a 54mm portafilter on its own manufacturer page. IMS’s testing basis is published too, which is unusually transparent: “Dark (80/20 blend), Medium (100% Arabica), Light (Ethiopia single origin).”

Do not substitute a 58mm basket — see Breville 54mm vs 58mm.
