Know before you buy
You should select the size that matches the inner diameter of your portafilter basket. For example, the 53mm size is designed to fit standard 54mm baskets, while the 58mm size is the industry standard for commercial-style machines.
Adjustable height allows you to set the depth of the distributor based on your specific dose of coffee. This ensures the tool makes proper contact with the grounds to create a perfectly level bed without over-compressing the puck.
Since the handle is made from natural walnut, it is best to keep it dry and avoid submerging it in water. You can occasionally wipe it with a food-safe wood oil to maintain its finish and prevent the wood from drying out.
A distributor eliminates uneven mounds and air pockets in your coffee grounds before you tamp. By creating a flat, uniform surface, it helps prevent channeling, which leads to a more consistent and balanced extraction.
We recommend hand-washing the stainless steel base with warm water and mild soap. Because of the natural walnut handle, the tool should not be placed in the dishwasher, as the heat and moisture can damage the wood.
