Pesado Clump Crusher - Riga

Pesado Wooden WDT Clump Crusher — Riga

The Pesado Wooden Clump Crusher is a WDT distribution tool that breaks up clumps, fluffs the puck and evens out density before tamping — for smoother, more consistent shots. Its eight 45mm needles reach deep into the coffee bed to redistribute grounds without over-disturbing the puck, reducing channelling and improving flow uniformity for higher, more repeatable extractions.

The removable birch wood leva end comes in Pesado's signature Riga finish — vacuum-dyed and sealed with a heat- and water-resistant wax for lasting durability. Each needle is individually replaceable, so you can swap one rather than the whole tool, and it's designed to match Pesado's wooden portafilter and tamper sets.
