Why is it important to have a quality tamper?
A hand tamper is an essential tool for proper espresso preparation as it ensures the ground coffee is evenly packed in the lever, which is key to achieving consistent water flow and extraction. A quality tamper, such as those made by Motta, ECM, or Lelit, allows perfect control over the pressure during the frothing process.
How do you choose the right tamper for your coffee machine?
When choosing a tamper, it is important to ensure that it is compatible with your coffee machine. For example, tampers from Rocket Espresso, Ascaso or Lelit are designed for specific models such as the Rocket Espresso Appartamento or Ascaso Steel UNO PID. On our e-shop, you can filter tamper pads by compatibility with your coffee machine, making it easier to choose.
What tamper materials are available and what is the difference between them?
Tamper pads are available in different materials such as wood, stainless steel or anodized aluminium. Stainless steel is very durable and easy to maintain, while the wooden handles give a sleek and comfortable grip. Aluminum tamper grips are lighter and ergonomic, which baristas who work with more drinks will appreciate.
Are special tamper pads available for specific coffee machines?
Yes, many tampers are designed to fit specific models of coffee machines. For example, tamper brands such as Ascaso, Lelit, or Rocket Espresso are specifically tailored for their coffee makers, ensuring optimal performance and comfortable use. You can filter your selection by the tamper compatible with your coffee machine.
