A Premium Spirographic Espresso Distribution Tool (WDT Tool) by Espresso Mando®
We’ve optimized every aspect of this tool, from perfectly engineered gear ratios to the placement of the needles. Elevate your espresso experience with unparalleled consistency just a few spins away. Perfectly fluffy espresso pucks are now within reach.
Quick geometry lesson: Hypotrochoids and epitrochoids are curves defined by tracing a point attached to a circle that’s rolling along the inside or outside of a fixed circle, respectively. Spirographs use this concept to create mesmerizing geometric patterns.
The Mando WDT™ employs 14 needles, each with a 0.30mm diameter, to trace dozens of hypotrochoids and epitrochoids through the mounded coffee grounds in your Cafelat Espresso basket. This mechanical motion distributes and fluffs the grounds in seconds, ensuring consistency no matter how early in the morning it is. The increased needle count, compared to competitors, enhances distribution performance, elevating your espresso enjoyment.
The Mando WDT™ features a perfect gear design that mixes, distributes, and aerates the coffee grounds in your portafilter in just three spins. Four separate gears come together in an optimized fashion.
