WDT tool

Also known as WDT tool · WDT needle tool · herramienta WDT · aiguille WDT · distribución con agujas

What it is and what sets it apart: The physical tool; the method is covered under WDT (parameters). Differs from palm levelers—needles break deep clumps.

What it’s for and how to use it: After grind (with funnel): gentle circles/verticals → level → tamp. Clean between tines.

Cup impact or benefit: Less channeling, steadier sweetness. Clear feedback on bottomless.

Technical notes: Fine needles (e.g. 0.3–0.4 mm). Spinning bases help, not required.

Common mistakes: Thick fork “as WDT”. Replacing tamp with needles only. Confusing with filter swirl.
