Improve espresso consistency and extraction with the IKAPE V3 Espresso Rotary Springback WDT Distribution Tool (Mantis V3) — a 2025 upgraded coffee distribution tool designed for effortless clump breaking and even coffee bed preparation. Featuring a press-and-auto-rebound spinning mechanism, this innovative WDT tool requires only a gentle press to rotate and distribute grounds evenly, reducing effort while improving workflow precision.

Designed by IKAPE, the V3 delivers professional puck preparation for both beginners and experienced baristas.

Press-and-Rebound Rotary Distribution Technology

Unlike traditional rotary WDT tools (V1 and V2), the V3 introduces a springback spinning mechanism that automatically rotates when pressed.

• Gentle press activates spinning motion
• Breaks up clumps quickly and evenly
• Faster and more consistent distribution
• Reduced wrist fatigue during repeated use

This design simplifies puck preparation while improving extraction uniformity.

Ultra-Fine Precision Needles with Planetary Layout

The V3 uses ultra-thin 0.25mm needles arranged in a scientifically optimised planetary pattern for effective distribution.

• 58mm version: 9 needles
• 51mm and 54mm versions: 8 needles
• Dense and balanced rotation coverage
• Minimises channeling and improves flow consistency

The updated needle plate design improves durability and performance.

Adjustable Depth for Different Baskets

The needle depth is fully adjustable to suit various basket sizes and doses.

• Compatible with 16g to 22g baskets (58mm)
• Easy adjustment via central tightening nut
• Suitable for different coffee machines and workflows

This flexibility ensures optimal distribution across different setups.

Magnetic Dosing Funnel Integration

The included split magnetic dosing funnel can be used independently or attached to the WDT tool.

• Prevents grounds from spilling during distribution
• Improves workflow cleanliness
• Ensures accurate dosing and minimal waste

Storage Base Included

A dedicated storage base keeps your coffee station organised while protecting the needles when not in use.
