Distribution approach
Shaking is intended to reduce clumps that can create dense areas and uneven water flow. The exit shape and bell release create a centre mound, placing more coffee toward the centre of the puck. Shaking is also intended to reduce the effect of fines by forcing them into pores in the larger grounds.
