ThecafeHQ Coffee Distributor

You should measure the inner diameter of your portafilter basket. ThecafeHQ offers 51mm, 53mm, and 58mm sizes, so choose the one that matches your specific basket diameter to ensure a snug fit and even distribution.

The flat base is ideal for compressing the coffee bed into a level surface, while the three-angled slope base helps push coffee grounds toward the edges of the basket. Using both allows you to achieve a more uniform density, which helps prevent channeling during extraction.

Not at all. The distributor features a simple screw-style mechanism that allows you to extend or retract the depth of each head. You can easily adjust it to match your specific dose volume for a consistent tamp every time.

The tool features a four-part detachable design, allowing you to unscrew the heads from the center handle. You can wipe the components down with a damp cloth or rinse them with warm water, ensuring you dry them thoroughly before reassembling.

The aluminum alloy provides a sturdy, premium feel without being excessively heavy. The diamond-patterned grip is specifically designed to provide extra traction, making it easy to rotate and handle even if your hands are slightly damp.
