SubminimalFlick WDT Espresso Distribution Tool - Stirrer Tool for Barista-Grade Precision Brewing - Barista Tamper with Retractable Needles - Coffee and Espresso Machine Parts and Accessories

This a really good product for any budding home barista.It is really easy to use and is very solid and well built for the price. It is functional and just the right weight without been too heavy/light.It has really improved my puck preparation and my espresso massively! I also really like the little storage/magnet which comes with both adhesive pads and magnets for flexibility.Highly recommend.

This really is a fantastic WDT... I'm serious about espresso at home and your set up is weak without a good WDT. The Subminimal Flick has a lovely weight to it. The design is just awesome, the button press to release the needles and the flick action to retract them is so cool. The needle depth is brilliant, it can reach to the bottom of the basket with ease and it doesn't flex when breaking up the coffee grounds which is nice as some can feel a bit weak when in use.This isn't just a gadget with a unique selling point in the flick action. This is a great value for money tool that you absolutely need in your home if you're serious about espresso.I'll be recommending this to anyone that asks about my workflow.

The Flick is absolutely brilliant! For sure the best WDT tool I’ve used. The needles are distributed in a way that both breaks down the clumps in the portafilter but also spread the grounds evenly. I love the magnet it comes with too; it’s currently attached to the side of my machine. I’d highly recommend!

Not only is this tool strong and productive, but it’s beyond satisfying and fun to use. The magnetic aspect makes it handy to put it nearby and easy to grab. I’m very happy and would highly recommend this WDT tool for any coffee nerd looking to improve their brewing equipment.

By far the best WDT tool I’ve owned, I’ve had plenty over the years but this thing is really well engendered, really nice to work with and doesn’t have the typical needles sticking out at all times that retract easily, love it

Pros: looks good, build quality is great, extra set of needles, space saver designCons: there’s no needle in the centre which makes the process longer. Needle thickness is 0.5 which is less flexible and not the best 0.35-.4 works the best, needle material is not stainless steel. Coffee would stick to the needles and when you retract it would add to cleaning time.

Really well made. Really solid and the flick back has a really satisfying click and feel.I have used other WDT tools and this is by far the most enjoyable!

Really well designed, handy little magnet to hang it up
