Compact 304 stainless steel distributor and tamper designed for 49mm portafilters. The three angled slopes on the base help level and distribute coffee grounds consistently before tamping, improving puck uniformity and extraction stability. Key benefits Even distribution: The three angled slopes guide and redistribute loose grounds across the basket so you get a flatter, more uniform puck before tamping. Reduces channeling: Better distribution helps minimize voids and uneven density that cause channeling and poor extraction. Durable and foodsafe: Made from 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance, longevity, and easy cleaning. Right size for compatibility: 49mm base fits portafilters and baskets specified at 49mm, making it suitable for machines that use this diameter. Features and attributes Material: 304 stainless steel — corrosion resistant, hygienic, and simple to wipe clean. Base design: Three angled slopes engineered to move grounds toward an even surface without excessive pressure. Size: 49mm diameter base — intended to match 49mm portafilter baskets and tamping openings. Functionality: Acts as a distributor/leveler and can be used to prepare the puck prior to final tamping with your regular tamper. How it solves common problems Inconsistent puck density: The angled slopes redistribute grounds so the puck is more level, reducing hotspots and underextracted coffee. Timeconsuming dosing adjustments: Quick leveling action streamlines prep, saving time while improving shot consistency. Wear and hygiene concerns: 304 stainless steel resists staining and rust, so the tool stays clean and functional through repeated use. Practical use cases Home espresso preparation: Use the distributor/leveler to even out freshly dosed coffee in a 49mm portafilter before applying a final tamp with your tamper. Improves repeatability for singleserve or double shots. Compact and portable setups: Small espresso machines or travelfriendly rigs that use 49mm baskets benefit from a lightweight, durable stainless tool for consistent puck prep. Office or smallservice environments: Speed up barista workflow by leveling doses quickly and reducing wasted shots due to uneven extraction. Usage tips After dosing, place the tool on the basket and rotate gently or rock slightly as needed to distribute grounds evenly across the surface. Follow with your preferred tamper and tamping pressure to complete puck preparation. Rinse or wipe clean after use to maintain hygiene and appearance. Compatibility and fit Specifically sized for 49mm portafilter baskets and tamp openings. Verify your portafilter diameter before to ensure a proper fit. What you get A 49mm 304 stainless steel coffee distributor/leveler with a threeangledslope base designed to improve puck consistency and support more even espresso extraction.
