Normcore Needle Distributor Tool V3 – Planetary Version

Normcore Needle Distributor Tool V3 – Planetary Version

The Normcore V3 Planetary Needle Distributor is an innovative espresso puck distribution tool designed for maximum even distribution, less clumping, and more stable extractions.

Functionality & Technology

• Planetary stirring system: 15 needles, divided into 5 independently rotating groups, rotate and orbit the sieve plate simultaneously. This combines rotation and orbital motion for multidirectional stirring. 
• Multidirectional coverage: The complex movement reaches corners and areas that are often left untouched by simple tools – this reduces channeling and ensures even density in the puck. 
• Continuous depth adjustment: The tool handle allows fine adjustment of the stirring depth depending on the basket depth or coffee volume. 
• High-quality materials & spare parts: Made of 304 stainless steel, anodized aluminum, and brass. The tool comes with replacement needles (e.g., 0.25 mm & 0.30 mm) and a needle locking tool. 

Advantages & Areas of Application

• Improved puck uniformity – the planetary system ensures intensive stirring in multiple directions and minimizes voids or dense zones.
• Less clumping – by breaking up compacted particles and distributing them evenly.
• Suitable for baristas & home enthusiasts who want more control in puck preparation.
• Flexible use – with its depth adjustment, the tool fits into different sieve sizes and depths.
• Sustainable in use – replaceable needles make the tool more durable.
