The key to perfect extraction Every great cup of espresso begins long before the first drop – with the preparation of the coffee bed. An uneven distribution of the beans leads to channeling: uncontrolled flow paths that throw your extraction off balance and leave the full aroma unused. A well-designed spreading tool brings precisely this precision to your work surface – compact, reliable and designed for everyday use. Ultra-fine needles for flawless distribution The focus is on the 13-needle spiral out of 0.25 mm Made of fine, food-grade SUS304 stainless steel. The extremely thin needles reliably dissolve even stubborn clumps without leaving deep marks or channels in the coffee bed. The needle spacing of 1.8 millimeters It covers an area of up to 55 millimeters and guarantees a uniform, fine-grained mixture – the ideal basis for stable extraction. Adjustable depth for each portafilter The needle depth is infinitely adjustable: Turn the handle clockwise for deeper portafilter baskets or counterclockwise for shallower ones. This ensures precise work without touching the bottom of the basket. The open, one-sided fixed spiral design gives you a full view of the coffee bed at all times – no blind spot, but complete visual control over every step of the preparation. Magnetic base and high-quality workmanship The magnetic base Ensures a secure, firm hold on the portafilter – even during rapid movements everything stays exactly in place without any coffee powder being lost. The tool itself is made of a one-piece, high-quality aluminum alloy and comes with its own cleaning and storage base including an integrated brush – for a tidy work surface and needles that remain permanently protected.
