Amazon Customer: Although the instructions to adjust the height weren't the clearest to follow, using the distributor & tamper is simple and easy to use. The product is sturdy and well made, does a great job of evenly distributing the grounds in the filter basket, and tamps the coffee with very little effort. It fits beautifully in my Sunbeam Barista Max 58mm portafilter and my morning coffee has never tasted so smooth and creamy.

I believe this has made a huge difference to the crema being perfect with each drip!

Ben: This tool has improved my tamping quite a bit, it’s now the same every time, whereas before I used a normal tamper. I didn’t realise how far off I was from uniform.
Feels nice to use - heavy, and holds a setting once you get it where you want it.

Eric: I am trying out the techniques of using the wire device to break up clumps in the ground coffee and this device to make or all smooth and uniformy compacted. It does it's job.

Michael Lindauer: This coffee distributor is built very well and is high quality. In practice, it’s very hard to use.

The user can and must precisely adjust the leveler height and press height for every individual basket of coffee. It required lots of small adjustments to get right.

If the user carefully measured the coffee dose each time, they could set&forget. In that case, this product would be perfect.

If you don’t carefully measure your dose, or if you switch coffee, grinds, or switch baskets (like a small basket for a single shot) you have to start over.

Recommend a design that allows the distributor to float inside the collar, like a piston in a cylinder, so only the weight of the distributor does the work. This way it would self adjust to any dose or basket.

Nick: First off, this thing is very well made. It will outlive me, my future children, everyone reading this review, and certainly the poor soul who breaks into your home/shop that it gets thrown at! I did not run into any sharp edges or surfaces that would cut someone.

I bought it to try to make it easy to train volunteers on our new Astoria Sabrina SAE 2 Group (a commercial machine), and because the tamp that came with the machine left a very small gap around the outside edges. That is the only reason that I am knocking off one star, it still leaves a bit of a gap when tamping down with a 58mm base. BUT the distributor side works great, so I'm keeping it around just for that!

The shots that it is helping pull are still good, but for a commercial setting, I want to be sure to remove every variable that I can (even if it's only .5mm).

For the price, you won't find a better 58mm palm tamp and distributor!
