Won't fit the drip tray0.1 g · Auto timer

The Timemore Black Mirror Basic 2.0 isn't espresso-sized, so it may not fit on your machine's drip tray under the cup. You can still weigh your beans with it.

Coffee Tamper

Won't fit your basketStandard

The Pesado Coffee Tamper is made for 58mm baskets, but the Flair Espresso Flair 2GO uses a 40mm portafilter, so it won't fit. Pick a 40mm tamper instead.
