Coffee Parts Professional 58.3mm Gold Flat Tamper

Also known as a coffee press, the coffee tamper may look like one of the simplest coffee accessories, however it is one of the most important in the espresso making process, used to evenly tamp the ground coffee in the filter basket in the aim to create an even distribution of coffee grounds and reduce paths of least resistance called channeling. In many cases the simple coffee tamp is a barista's pride and joy as well as an extension of their personality.

58.3mm is the size recommended for VST and IMS filter baskets, which are aftermarket high end espresso accessories which we recommend upgrading too. These baskets for a range of coffee machines including La Marzocco, Synesso, Kees van der Westen, San Remo, Rocket, etc

This 58.3mm coffee tamper was designed to be simple yet ergonomically designed to be used in the busiest of speciality coffee cafes and beautiful home coffee machine setups of home baristas. It weights just over 500 grams which is the industry standard, has a stainless base to withstand damage from usage and an aluminium handle to allow the weight to be balanced. The radius of the base was also chosen to maximise surface area when tamping without compromising the strength of the base edge.
