Know before you buy
No, this tamper is specifically engineered with a 45.5mm base to fit the unique basket size of the Flair Pro and Pro 2. It will not provide a proper fit for standard 58mm or 54mm portafilters.
When you apply enough downward force to reach the calibrated pressure, the internal mechanism triggers an audible 'click.' This sound confirms that you have achieved the target pressure, ensuring consistent tamping every time.
Yes, the tamper is designed for easy spring replacement, allowing you to customize the tamping pressure based on your specific coffee bean roast or extraction preference.
Yes, the tamper features a built-in leveling mechanism that helps keep the base parallel to the coffee bed. This prevents 'channeling' caused by tilted tamping, which is a common reason for uneven espresso extraction.
The handle is ergonomically shaped to fit naturally in the palm, reducing wrist strain during repetitive use. The combination of wood and metal provides a balanced weight that feels stable and comfortable in the hand.
