Short answer
The Dual Boiler has a 58 mm portafilter with a 22 g dose, so Breville's 54 mm accessories do not fit it. Normcore lists a 58.5 mm tamper and puck screen and a 58 mm funnel for it. If you fit an IMS B70 basket, which IMS recommends for this machine, IMS lists a 58 or 58.4 mm tamper. Breville's spare 58 mm portafilter SP0001817 lists the BES920.

Watch out for
- Breville's 54 mm accessories (Bambino, Barista Express) do not fit: the Dual Boiler is 58 mm. A listing that says only 'for Breville' could mean either size.
- Breville's spare portafilter SP0001817 also lists the Oracle Jet, Oracle Dual Boiler and Dynamic Duo, so those share this portafilter part.
- A 58.5 mm tamper is larger than the 58 or 58.4 mm IMS lists for its B70 baskets. Match the tamper to your basket.
