Brilliant little gadget
I was getting poor-ish coffee from my Sage Barista Touch previously but this gadget is amazing - great flavour, rich coffee with an even pour. Not really sure how to use it properly - I do it anti-clockwise a few turns to distribute and then clockwise a few turns to flatten out. Very quick light tamp afterwards and bobs your uncle. Really improves the coffee taste. It's nicely weighty too - feels good in the hand.

Quality distributor
This product has enhanced my espresso making instantly, the ease of distribution of the ground beans in the portafilter has pleased me, overall the improvement in the consistency of my espresso tamping is the feature that makes this a recommended product for any home barista

Very Good!
Always thought tampering coffee was the way however after using this on a finer grind seems very consistent. It’s easily adjustable and once set, just a little press and a few spins leaves a the coffee perfectly flat and smooth.. Love it!

Worth every penny
Bought this as an upgrade to the Sage supplied coffee tamper. Have to say what an upgrade. Sage take note. for such an expensive coffee maker the Tamper needs much improvement.

Good quality
Absolute bargain compared to others out there. Very heavy and has a quality feel about it. Distributes the coffee well and fits sage barista express.

Great quality, helped level up my espresso making.
Great quality, really heavy and accurately machined stainless steel, used with the 54mm Sage Duo Temp Pro portafilter. It’s instantly made a difference to the espresso i’m making by adding another level of consistency alongside weighing and timing of each shot.

Easy tamping
I was getting a wee bit tired of the process when making several espressos on my barista express.This can be adjusted using the levelling tool provided with the BE as a guide.Fits the BE portafilter perfectly.It's definitely improved my consistency with the coffee and speed.I'm not an expert, nor am I aiming for superior coffee, I just want good coffee and fast. This helps me get to that goal.I would recommend, fairy pricey but in the end I've found myself using my BE and drinking coffee at home more now.

Best money you can spend on espresso
Beware negative reviews. The first one listed for me was from early 2019. I'm not disputing the reviewer's experience at all, but what matters is what the product is now, not what it was then. This espresso distributor is PERFECT! We bought a new espresso machine last Christmas and have been steadily upping our game in search of perfection (read consistency). We use a digital scale and measure our espresso load to the tenth of a gram. Our grinder costs more than our espresso machine. I absolutely know we're "perfect" in our grind and the load. The espresso machine does an excellent job. The one variable we were inconsistent with was the tamp. Our machine has a manometer (pressure gauge) and we'd be all over the map from 7 bars to 14 bars. It usually wasn't that bad, but sometimes it was. I want to get 9-10 bars every time, and we just weren't achieving that. In fairness, my wife comes closer than I do, but it varies for her as well. We put a digital bathroom scale on our kitchen counter (its actually cool looking and it stays there!). That helped us with our tamping, and we consistently tamp at 30 pounds. But after 8 months of this, we concluded that we just weren't getting the espresso powder consistently distributed, so sometimes we'd get channeling, sometimes not.I don't know why I waited so long to buy this. As soon as it arrived, I was blown away at how well made it is. You'd never know I price-shopped! This is worthy of sitting next to a $3,000 espresso machine (not that I'll ever experience that). The workmanship is first class. It's heavy and does its job extremely well. We tap the portafilter a little and use our finger to somewhat level out the coffee, then use the distributor. You'll have to play around a few days with the adjustment of the distributor; it lets you loosen the top, then screw out the distributor section to extend or retract it to the right depth. Only a little experimenting will let you find the right height. And you HAVE to be completely consistent on the grind and quantity of espresso you load into the portafilter; otherwise there will be no way for the distributor to be consistent!I could tell the first day this was a big improvement, and it got better the next couple days as I got the correct depth set on the distributor. Now I'm seeing much more consistency in our pressure, and therefore in the quality of the espresso we're pulling.Just make sure you're loading a consistent amount of espresso in the portafilter before you distribute and tamp or you'll never achieve consistency.Oh, and this should be obvious, but make sure you order the correct diameter distributor; they come in three sizes. My Solis Barista Perfetta Plus uses a standard 54mm portafilter, so the 53 mm Apexstone distributor was perfect (well, I suppose a 53.9 mm might be even more perfect, but you really don't want to cut it that close! My tamper is also 53mm.)In short, if you're making espresso, this will be the best $15 you will ever spend. I buy a lot from Amazon and most of the time I don't bother to post a review, but this distributor blows me away so much, ESPECIALLY for the low price, that I had to give it its due and recommend it to you.

Super zu gebrauchen
Das Produkt ist ein muss für jeden "kleinen" Barista. Wobei auchin einigen Videoclips so ein Teil von den Profis verwendet wird.Einfach zu benutzen und wirklich empfehlenswert.

Good
I can’t compare to other styles because I haven’t use a different distributor but this one fills all my needs. It’s sturdy, not that heavy and adjustable. It easily levels my coffee grounds so I can get a better tamper.
