Normcore Needle Distributor Tool V3 - Planetary Version

Advanced Distribution. Maximum Uniformity.

The Normcore V3 Planetary Version redefines espresso puck preparation with a unique planetary stirring mechanism. Featuring 15 fine needles divided into 5 independently rotating groups, the tool combines both rotation and orbital motion to reach every corner of the coffee bed.

As the tool presses down, each group of needles rotates while orbiting the basket, creating a complex, multidirectional stirring pattern. This ensures deeper, more even distribution—breaking up clumps more thoroughly and reducing edge buildup for a smoother, denser puck.

Engineered for users who demand precision and uniformity, the V3 Planetary model is ideal for those chasing the perfect shot, whether at home or in a professional setting.
