Motta Leveler 58.5mm

Why do we sell the Motta Leveling Tool?
If you always carry out the steps for preparing espresso exactly as Michel Aeschbacher shows in our home barista courses or the YouTube videos, you don't actually need a leveling tool.
But who can really say that about themselves?
A leveling tool helps to eliminate a major source of error when operating a portafilter machine - the distribution of the coffee grounds in the portafilter. The leveler ensures that the distribution is even, thus reducing the risk of channeling.
That's why we sell this leveling tool.
We also like the fact that Motta produces this useful little helper in Italy and it did not have to be shipped halfway around the world.
