20% heavier leveler than the regular Motta leveler - at 490 grams
Description:
This heavy leveler is designed to reduce channeling for naked portafilters.
It is height adjustable - may be a little stiff when new - screw off the top anti-clockwise to make the leveler deeper.
It comes with an aluminum rim for smooth rotation and at 490 grams you won't need a tamper.
Made in Italy by one of Italy's top tamper and coffee accessories factories - Not to be confused with lighter levelers, which don't have the weight, to allow even compacting.
Before you tamp the coffee - using this leveler will allow you to obtain the correct density, which will minimize channeling and increase coffee extraction, ensuring greater consistency in the amount of espresso served.
Details:
Weight: 490g (100g heavier than the black leveler from Motta)
Width: 58.5 mm
Height: 25mm - 33mm (inc top)
Material: Stainless steel base and beechwood top with the aluminum rim.
Features:
- The Motta leveler has 3 angled slopes that consistently, efficiently, and evenly glide the coffee around in a circle to create a puck of even density. No more inconsistencies between barista's distribution in the café.
- This Motta coffee leveler creates a perfectly flat surface to tamp upon, creating more consistent puck density. Baristas can leave a slight mound or indentation in the coffee, which means they tamp down inconsistencies in the puck density.
- This Motta coffee leveler can be adjusted to suit a range of doses, depending on specific roasting styles. This tool can even suit those using very low doses or larger baskets.
- No more dirty, cracked coffee fingers after a day of service on the espresso machine.
- Less channeling & micro-channeling - improper or rushed distribution, is more likely to channel which affects taste.
