WDT
The Weiss Distribution Technique was developed to distribute coffee grinds through our the brew bed.
To quote Barista Hustle: “The WDT is named for John Weiss, who developed the technique back in 2005 as a way to compensate for grinders, especially smaller home grinders, that produced excessive clumps. The WDT became well-known among home baristas, and has been written about extensively in the years since.”
The Normcore WDT
We had been looking for a WDT tool, not just to improve our espresso but also our pour over and auto-drip brew bed.
What we like:
- Size is perfect
- Pins are sturdy
- Easy to use
- Magnetic bottom so you can attach to coffee machine
- Spare pins included
What we are not keen on:
- Price (it is a little steep)
- Pins can bend when you remove from box, so be careful.
