Know before you buy
You should measure the inner diameter of your portafilter basket in millimeters. The Hypergrind kit is available in 51mm, 53mm, and 58mm sizes to match standard industry portafilter dimensions.
The dual-spring mechanism ensures you apply consistent pressure every time you tamp. It helps prevent uneven extraction by keeping the tamper perfectly level, reducing the risk of channeling.
Yes, the distributor features an adjustable depth setting. This allows you to customize the tool to match the specific dose of coffee you are using, ensuring the grounds are evenly leveled before you tamp.
To maintain the wood's finish, wipe the handles clean with a damp cloth after use and avoid submerging them in water or putting them in the dishwasher. Periodically applying a food-safe wood oil can help keep the walnut hydrated and looking its best.
The self-levelling feature is designed to work effectively within the specific diameter of the size you purchase. As long as you select the correct size for your portafilter, the mechanism will guide the tamper to sit flush against the basket rim for a level surface.
