Same shot. Every morning.
Almost every bad home espresso is the same fault: water finding a fast path through an uneven puck. These four tools attack that fault in sequence — catch the grounds, break the clumps, level the bed, spread the water.
What's in the box
- WDT Distribution Tool — fine needles that break up grinder clumps
- Magnetic Dosing Ring — keeps the dose in the basket, not on the counter
- Palm Tamper — walnut dome, tamps level by design
- Puck Screen — spreads the water jet, keeps the group head clean
What this fixes, and what it doesn't
It fixes channeling — sour-and-bitter-at-once shots, wildly different times from the same grind setting, a wet crater in the used puck.
It does not fix stale beans, a grinder that can't hold a setting, or an unstable machine. No tool can. If your beans are three months old, buy fresh coffee before you buy any of this.
Sizing
Pick your basket size. 53mm fits Sage and Breville machines sold as 54mm — the basket itself measures about 53.3mm. Not sure? See the fit guide.
Bought separately this is €79.80. Covered by the CremaKit warranty.
60seconds
The routine
The 60-second routine
Most sour or bitter shots come from uneven puck prep, not from your machine or your beans. Four quick steps fix it.
- 1Dose
Grind straight into the portafilter. The magnetic dosing ring keeps it off the counter.
- 2Stir
Break up every clump with the WDT tool for an even bed of coffee.
- 3Tamp
The palm tamper rests on the rim and presses perfectly level, every time.
- 4Screen & brew
Drop in the puck screen for even water flow, then pull your shot.

All FAQsWhich size do I need?
Most De'Longhi machines use 51mm, Sage / Breville use 54mm, and Gaggia Classic, Rancilio Silvia and E61 machines use 58mm. Our fit guide lists every common machine.
What's the difference between the kits?
The Starter Kit has a click-stop spring tamper and cleaning brushes. The Espresso Prep Kit is our full workflow with a weighted palm tamper, tamping mat and shot glass. The Latte Art Set is for milk drinks and fits every machine.
How much is shipping?
Tracked shipping is free on orders over €50. Smaller orders pay a flat €4.95. Delivery takes 5–8 business days to the UK, 6–10 to Canada and 8–15 to Australia, always tracked.
Do I really need all these tools?
No, but together they fix the most common problems: clumps, uneven tamping and channelling. That's why they're sold as a kit. You can also buy each tool on its own.
Can I return or exchange?
Yes. You have 30 days from delivery to return unused items or swap to another size. See returns & exchanges.
