Coffee Distributor with Needles - 60g

Coffee distributor with needles - perfect espresso preparation

The BARISTA coffee distributor from Cilio is a professional tool for the serious coffee enthusiast. Featuring eight fine needles with a diameter of just 0.4 mm, the distributor ensures even coffee distribution in the portafilter. Made from anodized aluminum and stainless steel, it combines durability with an elegant black design.

It is ideal for the home barista seeking to enhance the quality of their espresso and avoid uneven extraction.

Precision for better coffee flavor

The fine needles in the coffee distributor effectively break up clumps in the ground coffee and eliminate air bubbles, which can otherwise cause uneven water flow during extraction—commonly known as channelling. This is crucial for achieving the full flavor from the coffee beans. By using the distributor before tamping, you create a uniform coffee puck with consistent density, resulting in a more balanced extraction and an espresso with a cleaner flavor profile.
