Stop clumps and uneven extractions
Clumping and bumpy puck tops cause channelling and thin shots. The Breville Distribution Duo 54mm solves this by combining adjustable WDT pins to de-clump and a three-blade distribution face to create a flat, consistent surface for precise tamping.
How It Works
Set the 8 removable pins angled or straight, then stir through the basket to break up clumps and spread grounds evenly.
Place the distribution face on the basket and rotate in either direction to level the surface.
Adjust the tool height to suit your dose and basket depth for consistent headspace to the shower screen.
Tamp on a stable base, pull the shot, and enjoy balanced extraction.

Maintenance & Best Practices

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is the Breville Distribution Duo the same as the Breville 2-in-1 distribution tool?
Yes, Breville the 2-in-1 Distribution Tool 54mm is commonly referred to as the Breville Distribution Duo 54mm. Both names describe the same 54mm distribution tool with pins and a levelling face for Breville machines.
-
Will it fit my 54mm Breville espresso machine portafilter?
It is designed for 54mm Breville portafilters. If your machine uses a 54mm basket, this tool is compatible. Measure your basket if unsure before purchase.
-
How should I set the pins, angled or straight?
Both work. Straight pins provide gentle stirring, angled pins move grounds more aggressively. Start straight for light roasts and finer grinds, then test angled if you still see signs of channelling.
-
What should I look for in a Breville Distribution Duo review?
Focus on distribution consistency, pin durability, the feel of the walnut grip, ease of height adjustment, and whether levelling improves shot balance. Reviews that include side-by-side puck and shot comparisons are most useful.
-
Do I still need a separate WDT tool with this distribution tool?
No, the eight adjustable pins provide WDT-style de-clumping. You can still browse dedicated WDT tools if you prefer a separate stirrer for your routine.
