Hello,
Does anyone know if there is any significant difference between those two groupheads? I own a Millenium and it's very difficult to find a bottomless portafilter for this machine in France. So far I've found one for the Zaffiro but I would like to know if it would work with my machine.

Even though the Zaffiro is a SBDU and the Millenium a HX machine, they both have similar E61 brew heads, so a bottomless portafilter for the Millenium will probably fit.

So I went ahead and bought the Isomac Zaffiro bottomless portafilter online and I just received it today. It doesn't go as far as the stock portafilter, but it's close enough. Thank you stefano65 and NobbyR for your advice!

note that some bottomless in some grouphead will need a thinner group gasket example 8,5 for standard vbm Isomac etc on our web page when we sell bottomless we mention that you might need a thinner one example an 8mm ask you vendor a a thinner gh gasket and your portafilter will go further to the right or option 2 a thinner and a spacer depends on the situation
