PUQ | PUQ Prep Navigator
The PUQ Navigator eliminates clumps and ensures even coffee distribution with a single touch. Designed for efficiency and precision, it enhances workflow while preserving barista control—delivering repeatable, high-quality extractions in every setting, from high-volume cafés to competition stages.
The PUQ Navigator: Distribution Redefined
The PUQ Navigator is a game-changer in coffee preparation, delivering precision, consistency, and efficiency to coffee distribution. Designed to eliminate clumps and ensure an even coffee bed, it allows baristas to focus on flavor, not flaws. With one-touch operation, the Navigator removes variability in distribution, giving baristas complete control over every shot.
Why Distribution Matters
Every espresso shot starts long before extraction. Uneven coffee distribution leads to channeling, under-extraction, and wasted potential. Traditional manual WDT (Weiss Distribution Technique) tools rely on barista skill, leading to inconsistencies. The Navigator redefines distribution, ensuring even density, minimal clumping, and precision at every dose.
By eliminating variables in puck preparation, the Navigator creates the ideal conditions for balanced extractions, improving flavor clarity, body, and consistency. This makes it an essential tool for baristas, roasters, and competition setups alike.
From Competition to Café: Proven Performance
Since its debut, the Navigator has been embraced by baristas at all levels. At the 2024 World Barista Championship, Dutch competitor Zjevaun Lemar Janga showcased its capabilities in his routine, securing a top-10 finish. The ability to standardize and refine distribution has made it an essential tool for professionals looking to improve workflow, consistency, and extraction quality.
Whether its at home, in high-volume cafés, competition settings, or specialty coffee bars, the Navigator brings repeatability and control to espresso preparation—helping baristas master their craft without compromise.
