Wiedemann WDT Needle Distribution Tool Smoked Oak – even distribution, less channeling
Clumps and unevenly distributed grounds lead to channeling – water finds the path of least resistance, and extraction becomes uneven. With the WDT tool (Weiss Distribution Technique), you loosen the coffee grounds in the basket and distribute them evenly, for more consistent espresso, cup after cup. Handle made from solid smoked oak with a warm, dark tone, handcrafted at the Wiedemann workshop.
