MADBALL Spirographic Dyna Height Adjustable WDT Tool - 58mm

MADBALL - We refine the elegance of functionality

Introducing the MADBALL Dyna WDT Tool, a high-end spirographic espresso distribution device that takes your coffee experience to the next level. We've meticulously optimized every detail, from precisely engineered gear ratios and pin placements to a mechanism that effortlessly spins with the touch of a finger. Enhance your espresso ritual with unparalleled consistency in every extraction. Achieving perfectly fluffed and evenly distributed espresso baskets is just a few spins away.

Incorporating a quick geometry lesson, hypotrochoids and epitrochoids are curves formed by tracing a point attached to a circle rolling along the inside or outside of a fixed circle, respectively. Spirographs leverage this concept to craft mesmerizing geometric patterns.

The MADBALL Dyna WDT Tool employs 10x, 0.35mm diameter pins to trace numerous hypotrochoids and epitrochoids through the clumpy espresso in your 58mm portafilter basket. This mechanical motion swiftly distributes and fluffs the grounds, ensuring consistency regardless of the hour.

With a groundbreaking gear design, the MADBALL Dyna WDT Tool efficiently mixes, distributes, and fluffs the grounds in your portafilter in just four spins. Three distinct gears collaborate seamlessly for optimal performance. The big gear moves the pins back and forth across the basket, scrambling and mixing the grounds. The medium gear whirls around the entire basket, effortlessly slicing through any clumps in its path. The small gear pushes and pulls the grounds near the edge, ensuring complete basket coverage and impeccable distribution.

Additionally, the tool features an adjustable needle length, effortlessly customizable to fit virtually any 58mm portafilter basket. Simply rotate the adjustment ring to achieve a tailored fit for your preferred portafilter basket. Elevate your espresso game with the precision and innovation of the MADBALL Dyna WDT Tool.

Included is a practical stand with a needle brush, featuring an anti-slip pad underneath for enhanced stability. This thoughtful addition not only facilitates the storage of the tool and cleaning of the needles but also ensures a secure and slip-resistant placement on any surface.

The Weiss Distribution Technique (WDT) is a distribution method for espresso making. Using a fine needle or similar tool, by stirring the coffee while it sits in the portafilter. The stirring action breaks up any clumps, and evens out the density of coffee within the puck. The result is reduced channelling, and higher, more even extractions.

NOTE
While our instructional materials demonstrate one-finger rotation as a method of use, it's important to acknowledge that individual experiences may vary. The magnetic strength of the tool can be influenced by the diversity of portafilter and basket designs in the market, potentially affecting the ease of rotation. Therefore, we recommend exploring alternative techniques, such as the two-hand method or utilizing your thumb to stabilize the tool while rotating it with one finger, to achieve optimal results based on your specific setup.
