BT Wedge Espresso Preparation Distribution Tool
The End of Espresso Guesswork In our experience, the single greatest cause of inconsistent espresso is not grind size or tamping pressure - it is the uneven distribution of grounds in the portafilter. This invisible variable leads to channeling, the primary culprit behind sour, underwhelming shots. We endorse the BT Wedge because it was conceived by a working barista to solve this exact problem and perfected through collaboration with master craftspeople. It provides a simple, repeatable foundation for a perfect extraction, ensuring the hard work of the entire supply chain is fully honored in the final cup. The Genius of the Wedge Design Unlike flat tools that simply level the surface, the BT Wedge's proprietary shape is engineered to groom the entire bed of coffee. As you spin the tool, the wedge gently and consistently moves grounds to fill any voids or low-density areas within the puck. This action creates uniform density from top to bottom, which is the key to preventing channeling
