Know before you buy
The tool features a spring-loaded mechanism that automatically compresses and levels your coffee grounds as you rotate it. This ensures an even distribution regardless of the dose volume, creating a flat surface for your tamper.
The Hypergrind Gravity Distributor is designed for versatility and is compatible with the three most common portafilter sizes: 51mm, 54mm, and 58mm. Please verify your machine's basket diameter before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.
Not at all. The distributor is designed for quick disassembly, allowing you to easily wipe down the stainless steel base and alloy body. We recommend a dry cloth or a soft brush to keep the walnut accents in good condition.
No, this tool is designed to distribute and level the grounds, not to compress them. You should use this to create a uniform bed of coffee first, then follow up with your standard tamper to achieve the necessary pressure for extraction.
The textured grip provides better control and stability while you rotate the tool across the portafilter. This helps prevent accidental slips that could disturb the coffee bed and ensures a consistent, level finish every time.
