Saint Anthony Industries BT Wedge Distribution Tool and Levy Tamper

The proprietary wedge shape is designed to push coffee grounds outward toward the edges of the portafilter basket, preventing the common issue of 'channeling' where water flows unevenly through the puck. By creating a level, uniform bed of coffee, you achieve a more consistent and balanced extraction.

These markings allow you to precisely adjust the depth of the distribution tool between 5mm and 14mm. This ensures that you can replicate your exact settings every time, providing consistency across different coffee bean densities or dose sizes.

Yes, the high-polish finish on the stainless steel base significantly reduces friction and static. This minimizes the amount of coffee grounds that stick to the tool, keeping your workflow cleaner and ensuring you aren't losing coffee between shots.

No, this tool is not dishwasher safe. Because it features American hardwood components, you should clean it by wiping it down with a dry or slightly damp cloth to preserve the integrity of the wood and the finish.

The BT Wedge is designed to work with standard commercial-style portafilter baskets. However, because baskets can vary slightly in diameter, we recommend ensuring your basket size is compatible with the tool's dimensions before purchase.
