Basket size unverified

We couldn't confirm the Pesado Puck Diffuser Screen 53.5mm fits the Diletta Mio: we don't know which basket size the Pesado Puck Diffuser Screen 53.5mm is made for (the machine takes 58mm). The puck screen must match the portafilter size exactly, so check both before buying.
