Ervesto® WDT Tool with 12 Needles - Black - Espresso Distribution Tool - Weiss Distribution Technique - WDT Distribution Tool - Coffee Distributor

Remove clumps in your espresso puck using this WDT (Weiss Distribution Technique) tool from Ervesto. The tool is easy to disassemble to adjust the number of needles and has a total of 12 holes. The tool comes with 12 needles (0.35 x 75 mm), with a thickness that offers an optimal balance between sturdiness and flexibility.

The WDT tool facilitates the breaking up of clumps and ensures an even distribution of ground coffee in the filter basket before the puck is compressed. It minimizes 'channeling' by ensuring that the ground coffee is evenly distributed in the filter basket.

Thanks to the 12 needles, the coffee can be broken up quickly and evenly, contributing to efficient extraction. The design of the WDT tool is a variation of Ervesto's recognized design, praised by coffee connoisseurs such as James Hoffman. The tool comes with a stand for safe storage, with a base diameter of 30.4 mm that fits common storage places for tampers or coffee distributors.

To use this tool, apply it during the 'puck prep' phase, which occurs between grinding the coffee and espresso extraction. After grinding, use the WDT tool to break up any clumps and distribute the coffee evenly. This uniform distribution contributes to better extraction, especially in preventing 'channeling'. The use of a funnel is recommended to prevent coffee spillage.
