Know before you buy
This tamper is designed for standard 58mm commercial-style baskets. The 58.4mm diameter is specifically engineered to provide a tighter fit in precision baskets, reducing the amount of coffee left on the sidewalls compared to a standard 58mm tamper.
Yes, the handle features an ergonomic design intended to reduce strain during repetitive tamping. Its shape allows for a secure, natural grip that helps maintain consistent pressure throughout the day.
The tamper features a durable 304 stainless steel base, which is food-safe and resistant to corrosion. The handle is crafted from anodized aluminum, providing a lightweight yet sturdy feel that balances the weight of the base.
