The Timemore PUCKS Set is a masterclass in workflow engineering. Designed for the serious home barista, this 3-in-1 toolkit focuses on the most critical part of espresso making: Puck Preparation. By streamlining the distribution and tamping process, PUCKS ensures that every shot you pull is balanced, sweet, and free from channeling. The Trio of Precision The set includes three meticulously crafted tools that work in harmony to prepare a professional-grade coffee bed in seconds: 1. Orbital WDT Tool (The Fluffer): Equipped with eight ultra-fine 0.3mm stainless steel needles, this tool obliterates clumps and redistributes grounds deep within the basket. It features a magnetic base for tidy storage and effortless access. 2. Gravity Distributor (The Leveler): Featuring a unique “snowflake” blade design, this distributor uses its own weight to self-adjust to the height of your coffee bed. No more fiddling with depth settings, just set it on your portafilter and spin for a perfectly flat surface. 3. Calibrated Tamper (The Finisher): Eliminate the guesswork of manual tamping. This tamper applies exactly 30 lbs of pressure and provides a distinct tactile “click” once reached, ensuring 100% repeatability shot after shot. Key Features & Design Perfect 58.4mm Fit: Precision-sized to fit standard 58mm baskets (VST, Pullman, IMS, etc.) with minimal edge gap to prevent “side-channeling.” Magnetic Integration: Each tool is designed with magnetic contact points, allowing them to snap into place on the included silicone mat or their respective stands, keeping your espresso bar organized and clutter-free. High-End Aesthetics: Available in a sleek Matte Black Aluminum or a refined Natural Wood finish, blending industrial precision with organic warmth. Ergonomic Handling: The mushroom-shaped grips and weighted shafts are designed to reduce wrist strain, making them a favorite for high-volume home use or professional café settings. Technical Specifications Component Details Diameter 58.4 mm (Optimized for 58mm baskets) Materials SUS420 Stainless Steel, Aluminum Alloy / Hardwood Tamp Pressure Pre-calibrated to 30 lbs with audible feedback WDT Needles 8x 0.3mm needles (includes 8x replacements) Espresso is brewed under roughly 9 bars of pressure (130 PSI). At that force, water is “lazy”—it will find the path of least resistance. If your puck has a clump or an uneven surface, the water will “channel” through that spot, leading to bitter and sour flavors in the same cup. The Timemore PUCKS Set removes the human error from this equation, giving you a perfect puck, every single time. In the box: Orbital WDT Tool, Gravity Distributor, Calibrated Tamper, 3-Piece Triangular Silicone Mat, Replacement Needles, Adjustment Tool.
