After grinding directly into the portafilter, air pockets and clumps develop in the grounds, which lead to channelling, often resulting in coffee spray with naked portafilters. Channelling occurs when the puck is not compacted fully.

Using this tool, combined with a coffee leveller and a tamper will help eliminate the spray from a naked portafilter  - giving you maximum coffee cream and a full bodied shot.

This needle distributor is an ideal de- clumping tool - also known as  WDT, or the Weiss Distribution Technique as it removes the clumping and air pockets often found with really fresh and very finely ground coffees.  

Available in a choice of 2 wooden handles: 

• Walnut wood -Silver base  Walnut has a satin matt finish

How to use needle distributor as a WDT tool:

• Grind coffee into coffee dosing cup or coffee funnel 
• Stir the coffee to de-clump and remove air pockets 
• Use a coffee distributor or leveller to further distribute the  espresso.
• Tamp for good puck density.
