A distribution tool with fine stainless needles set into a turned rosewood handle with a brass collar. Stirring the dose in the basket before tamping breaks up the clumps that form as coffee leaves the grinder, which is what stops water finding a channel through the puck.
Features
- Fine stainless needles, thin enough to pass between grounds rather than push them
- Turned rosewood handle with a brass collar
- Needle length reaches the base of a standard double basket
- Weighted handle, so the tool hangs straight in the hand
- Unscrews at the collar so the needle head can be rinsed
- Stand upright on the handle end between shots
