Know before you buy
This tamper is specifically designed for the LELIT58 group and has a diameter of 58.55 mm. It will only provide an optimal fit if your portafilter basket is also compatible with this precise 58.55 mm measurement.
The tamper is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the wood, simply wipe the handle with a soft, damp cloth and dry it immediately; avoid soaking it in water or using harsh detergents.
A precise 58.55 mm diameter ensures a snug fit inside the portafilter basket, which minimizes coffee grounds left on the sidewalls. This helps prevent channeling and promotes a more even extraction for a better-tasting shot.
No, the stainless steel base is permanently attached to the Zebrano wood handle. This construction ensures a stable, wobble-free experience while tamping.
While the wood is durable, you may occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil to the handle to keep the grain looking vibrant and prevent the wood from drying out over time.
