Palming in Consistency, Every Shot
The IKAPE V4 uses a new palm-press method with a larger contact area, so it feels easier to reach the same 30 pounds of pressure. In daily use, this means smoother prep and fewer wonky pucks from edge to edge.
With IKAPE’s built in dual springs set to 30 pounds, the tamper guides your press and supports repeatable extractions without second guessing your force.
Set your dose, level your bed, then place the tamper on the basket. Press straight down with your palm until the spring bottoms out, then release. The outer support block keeps the base true, leaving a consistent, flat coffee bed ready for espresso.
