Know before you buy
This tamper is designed for standard 58mm portafilter baskets. It is compatible with most professional-grade machines, but you should verify your specific basket diameter before purchasing to ensure a precise fit.
The tamper includes three stackable spacers that allow you to adjust the handle height across a 15mm range. By adding or removing these, you can customize the grip to suit your hand size and tamping technique for better ergonomics.
The True Tamp rings are integrated into the base to provide a visual guide, helping you ensure the tamper remains perfectly level during the press. This consistency is key to preventing channeling and achieving an even extraction.
The handle is not dishwasher safe and should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking it in water or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the wood finish over time.
Yes, by giving the tamper a slight spin after your initial press, you can smooth out the surface of the coffee puck. This helps seal the grounds and promotes a more uniform water flow through the bed during brewing.
