Gravity Espresso Distributor — Auto Height-Adjust | Propeller Fins | 3-Point Contact | Black, Grey & White | Distributor or Set | 51–58mm

Gravity Auto-Height. Propeller Fins. Three Colors.

The Gravity Espresso Distributor uses gravity rather than manual depth adjustment to find the correct working height in the basket. Set it on the coffee bed and it settles to the grounds surface under its own weight, then rotate to redistribute. The stainless steel propeller fins move grounds from the centre outward across the full basket face. Three-point contact against the basket rim keeps the distributor centred and level during rotation. Available in Black, Grey, and White — Distributor only or Distributor + Tamper set. Sizes: 51mm, 54mm, and 58mm. $54.90.

Features

• Gravity-adaptive height adjustment — place it on the coffee bed and it settles to the grounds surface under gravity before rotation. No depth ring to set, no guessing how far to press down. Adapts to any dose weight without manual adjustment.
• Stainless steel propeller fins — the rotating fin geometry redistributes grounds from the basket centre outward toward the basket wall. Fills voids and low spots across the full puck surface before tamping.
• Three-point contact system — three contact points against the basket rim keep the distributor centred and level during rotation. Prevents tilt that would redistribute grounds unevenly to one side.
• Full disassembly — the distributor head separates from the body for cleaning between uses.
• Precision oversize base diameters — the 54mm variant uses a 53.3mm actual base diameter; the 58mm variant uses a 58.5mm actual base diameter. Machined to sit close to the basket wall without binding.

Distributor Only vs. Distributor + Tamper

• Distributor only — the gravity distributor as a standalone tool. The right choice if you already have a calibrated tamper and want to add distribution to your puck prep workflow.
• Distributor + Tamper set — the distributor paired with a tamper. Verify with Lastaforest: what tamper is included in the set? Is it a spring-calibrated 30 lb tamper, a fixed tamper, or a different mechanism? What is the handle material and finish? Updating this spec is critical for buyers deciding between this set and the spring-calibrated tamper sets elsewhere in the catalog.

Gravity Distributor vs. Black Edition Gravity Distributor

Two gravity distributors in this catalog with the same mechanism. The Black Edition Gravity Distributor ($54.90) is available in Black only and is sold as a standalone distributor or as part of the Black Edition matched tamper sets. This Gravity Distributor ($54.90) is available in Black, Grey, and White — and adds a Distributor + Tamper set option at the same price point. If you want a non-black distributor or want the tamper bundled in, this is the one. If you’re building a full Black Edition matched set, the Black Edition line is the one.
