IKAPE Coffee Distributor, Silver (Various Sizes)

The silver edition of the Ikape gravity-fed distribution tool brings a sleek, modern aesthetic to your coffee setup.

While functionally identical to its black counterpart, this silver variant offers a brilliant finish that many of our team members find particularly striking on stainless steel espresso machines.

For those considering a complete setup, Ikape offers both their gravity-fed distribution tools and calibrated palm tampers in matching silver or black finishes.

Whether you prefer a coordinated look with matching tools or fancy mixing silver and black for a distinctive style, the choice is yours.

Description

After extensive testing in our coffee lab, this gravity-fed distributor stood out for its brilliantly simple design.

Unlike traditional adjustable distributors that require constant fine-tuning, this model’s spokes simply drop down until they meet the coffee bed—no fiddling required.

Key Specifications:

  • Four-spoke distribution design
  • Premium 304 stainless steel spokes
  • Durable aluminium body construction
  • Compatible with 49mm, 51mm, 54mm and 58mm portafilters
  • Gravity-guided levelling system

Having tested countless distribution tools, we particularly fancy the gravity-fed approach. While the coffee community debates the merits of gravity versus adjustable systems, our team appreciates the straightforward convenience of gravity-fed models.

Let’s address the elephant in the room: are distribution tools essential? In our professional opinion, not strictly. While they excel at creating an even coffee bed—something achievable through various methods—they offer a practical solution that many baristas find valuable.

During our morning coffee rituals at the Caffeinated Gear lab, we’ve found ourselves reaching for distribution tools not just for their practical benefits, but for the pure satisfaction they bring to the process. When time permits, we thoroughly enjoy incorporating every tool in our arsenal. Strip away all the fancy equipment and yes, most coffee drinkers mightn’t detect significant changes in their cup. But we firmly believe espresso making transcends mere taste—it’s about the complete experience. If that philosophy doesn’t align with your approach, that’s perfectly fine—this tool might not be for you.
