Lastaforest UFO Gravity Distributor Leveler

The UFO Gravity Distributor is designed for 58mm portafilter baskets, which is the standard size for most professional and high-end home espresso machines. Please confirm your portafilter diameter before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.

The distributor uses gravity-based pressure to settle itself onto the coffee bed. As you rotate the tool, it automatically adjusts to the depth of your grounds, ensuring a level surface without the need for manual height calibration.

Yes, the triple-leaf clover design acts as a plow to break up clumps and redistribute grounds evenly across the basket. This creates a uniform density, which helps prevent channeling and leads to a more balanced, consistent espresso shot.

The walnut handle is crafted for both comfort and longevity. While it provides a premium feel, it is durable enough for daily use, though we recommend keeping it dry and avoiding prolonged exposure to water to maintain the wood's finish.

No, the auto-adjustment mechanism eliminates the need for manual depth settings. The tool naturally rests at the correct depth based on the volume of coffee in your basket, making it ideal for varying your dose size.

You can wipe the SUS304 stainless steel base with a clean, dry cloth after each use to remove residual coffee oils. Avoid submerging the entire unit in water to protect the integrity of the walnut wood handle.
