iKape V4 Palm Tamper 53.3mm Titanium Bottom: Walnut Handle
Get consistent, easy tamping with the iKape V4 Palm Tamper 53.3mm Titanium Bottom, Walnut Handle. Suits Breville 54 mm users and anyone chasing repeatable shots. Learn how it works below, then add to cart when ready.
Palm power for even extractions
Poor tamping causes channelling and uneven extractions. The IKAPE design places pressure under your palm, not your fingers, so you press straight and steady every time.
A titanium coated base reduces static and stick, while the walnut handle feels natural in hand. IKAPE keeps your puck tidy and your routine simple.
Set your dose and distribute, then place the tamper on the basket. Hold the walnut top in your palm and press down until the mechanism stops. The calibrated spring delivers about 30 pounds and forms a flat surface with concentric rings. Lock in and pull your shot.
