Wiedemann WDT Needle Distribution Tool Walnut – even distribution, less channeling
Clumps and unevenly distributed grounds cause channeling – water finds the path of least resistance, and extraction becomes uneven. With the WDT tool (Weiss Distribution Technique), you break up the coffee grounds in the basket and distribute them evenly, for more consistent espresso, cup after cup. Handle made of solid walnut, handmade in the Wiedemann workshop.
