The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Cafelat began in Switzerland, built by engineers who knew espresso. They make portafilter baskets and espresso tampers. The brand became known for precision baskets. These baskets have ridges instead of smooth walls. They changed how espresso extracts water through grounds. Today Cafelat holds a small, devoted following. Specialty coffee shops and home baristas use them. The company remains Swiss, boutique, serious about leverage. It is one of 6649 brands tracked weekly across Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini.
