Normcore Coffee Distributor Tool

The V-blade design is specifically engineered to move coffee grounds more effectively across the basket, creating a more uniform density. This helps eliminate pockets of uneven grounds, which significantly reduces channeling and leads to a more balanced extraction.

You can adjust the depth between 4 mm and 12 mm by twisting the top section of the tool. To find your ideal setting, start with the blade just touching the surface of your coffee dose, then adjust until the tool levels the grounds perfectly without compressing them too heavily before tamping.

The 58.5mm size is designed for precision-fit baskets, which are slightly wider than standard 58mm baskets. If you are using a standard stock portafilter, you may find the fit too tight, so it is best to verify your specific basket diameter before purchasing.

No, this tool is designed to distribute and level the coffee grounds, not to compress them. You should still use a tamper after using the distributor to ensure the puck is properly compacted for the correct brewing pressure.

Wipe the stainless steel base with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove coffee oils. Avoid soaking the tool in water, as the walnut top should be kept dry to preserve its finish and prevent the wood from warping.
