Pullman Barista Tamper Handle Australian Oak - Pullman
Best ergonomic upgrade for baristas seeking a custom-fit wooden tamper.
This is the Pullman Barista Tamper Handle crafted from beautiful Australian Oak. Please note that this listing is for the handle only; the base must be purchased separately. Engineered for optimal, lifetime results, this handle is compatible with bases ranging from 49mm to 59mm. It allows for height customization using three included stackable spacers, providing 8 different height options across 15mm of adjustment. To maintain the wood, keep it dry and wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth, as it is pre-treated with Danish oil and absorbs natural skin oils during use. Avoid harsh chemicals or dishwashers for care.

Know before you buy
No, this listing is for the handle only. You will need to purchase a compatible Pullman tamper base separately to complete your setup.
This handle is compatible with all Pullman tamper bases ranging from 49mm to 59mm, including the 58.4mm size designed for VST baskets.
The handle includes three stackable spacers that allow you to customize the height across a 15mm range. You simply unscrew the handle from the base to add or remove spacers until you reach your preferred ergonomic fit.
Because the wood is pre-treated with Danish oil, you should avoid harsh chemicals and never put it in the dishwasher. Simply wipe it clean with a slightly damp cloth to maintain the finish and remove any buildup.
Yes, as a natural material, the Australian Oak will absorb natural oils from your hands during regular use, which will gradually develop a unique patina over the life of the handle.
