If you have an industry standard porta-filter (58.00mm) - you have the option of Generic (1), Matched (2) or BigStep/Filtration Series Matched (3) if your machine is in blue on this chart. It is up to you which results you would like.

If your porta-filter is smaller than industry standard size - you are eligible for the Generic (1) or Matched (2) option.
