KNODOS 58.5mm Espresso Distribution Tool Maple — Adjustable Coffee Leveler, Stainless Steel

The KNODOS 58.5mm Espresso Distribution Tool with Maple Handle is an adjustable-depth coffee leveler that spins on top of ground coffee inside your portafilter to create an even, flat bed before tamping. The 58.5mm base fits precision baskets from IMS, VST, and Pullman. Stainless steel body with a hand-turned maple handle. Adjustable depth lets you set how deep the blades reach for consistent leveling every time. Use after WDT and before tamping for the most uniform puck prep.

What a Coffee Distributor Does

After dosing and WDT, the surface of the grounds is uneven — mounded in the center, thin at the edges. A distributor fixes this. Place it on top of the grounds, spin it two or three times, and the angled blades push coffee from high spots into low spots. The result is a level surface before tamping, which leads to more even extraction.

Adjustable Depth

Thread the base up or down to set the reach. The blades should contact the top layer and push it level without compressing the puck. Set it once for your dose and basket combination — the setting stays for every subsequent shot.

58.5mm Base

This is the 58.5mm version — designed for aftermarket precision baskets from IMS, VST, and Pullman that measure 58.5mm inside. If your basket measures 58.5mm, this is correct. If you use the stock basket, the 58mm version may be a better fit.

Maple Handle

Turned from solid maple — light, hard, fine-grained. Matches KNODOS maple tampers and portafilters. Moisture-resistant and easy to grip.
