A distribution tool levels the grounds before you tamp. Coffee falls out of a grinder in clumps and mounds, and tamping a mound just produces a dense side and a loose side — which is where channelling starts. Normcore’s gravity distributor uses a 5-blade base that you rest on the bed and turn; its own weight does the work rather than you pressing down.
Anodised aluminium and stainless steel. The 57.5mm size is offered in the standard finish only — the Titanium PVD option is limited to the other sizes.
Why 57.5mm for a 57mm machine
The blades have to turn inside the basket, so the tool is always cut slightly under the nominal portafilter figure. Normcore offers 51, 53.3, 57.5, 58 and 58.5mm, and its “57mm Fits Lelit” collection states the products in it are “built to a 57mm portafilter diameter and fits Lelit 57 Group espresso machines” — the Lelit Anna in this database.
Use it before the LELIT57 tamper, and consider the 57.5mm puck screen on top of the puck afterwards.
