About this deal

The no-nonsense design and solid structure results in an espresso presser that you can trust every day. This is the WDT tool I usually use in conjunction with the above if I'm using a two-tooled approach.

These are height adjustable which simply means that you can remove the silver ring to make the handle slightly shorter. The latest machine from them, though, the Bambino – the base level of the Bambino Plus, comes with a plastic tamper! Another calibrated tamper, which possibly isn't actually calibrated as such, but has a stiff spring which is designed to help your tamping to be more consistent. Once the goods have been received back and checked, as per our terms and conditions, we will issue a full refund or exchange on receipt. You can adjust the force by incrementing the tamper by 1kg at a time, simply dial in the espresso and set the tamp adjusting accordingly.They had all the parts I needed and offered excellent advice including ensuring I tested things first before simply spending the money to replacing a part that may not be necessary. In theory you could use a thinner pronged tool for both, but I find the thinner needles are a bit too flimsy for deeper WDT, they end up bending, and when they do this I think you potentially end up messing up the higher areas with the bending prongs while distributing the deeper areas.

If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag.Your elbow, maybe – or perhaps even your chin if you're that way inclined, although I think most people would probably opt to use the palm of their hand. And with all of the coffees including the new increased range, I spent a lot of time tasting lots of different coffees via various brewing methods, as well as cupping. It's fair to say that improving your espresso machine is another component to this, but I'm holding back on that advice in the post simply because I think most people who're looking for the best coffee tamper, will be people who've literally just bought an espresso machine. As a barista, especially if you’re working on a busy bar getting slammed there is nothing worse than a below-par espresso tamper.

This means that Etsy or anyone using our Services cannot take part in transactions that involve designated people, places, or items that originate from certain places, as determined by agencies like OFAC, in addition to trade restrictions imposed by related laws and regulations. com, Pattern by Etsy, our mobile apps, and other services as our “Services”), you are responsible for complying with this policy, regardless of your location. As I've just mentioned, another surprisingly underrated (and obvious, you'd think, but it seems not) way to improve your espresso quality is to improve on the quality of the coffee you're using.

I’m Tom and I have been working in the coffee industry for over 10 years, starting my journey as a barista in Australia, working on coffee farms in South America and roasting coffee in The UK. Note: Light reflection and different displays may cause the color of the item in the picture a little different from the real thing. Loads of people have developed the technique and made it their own, and the majority of people these days use some form of multi-pronged pointy implement, and these are generally known as “WDT tools”. Watch this space, as I'll create a separate review post for WDT tools in the future and link to it from here.

Maybe you have massive sausage fingers and need a tamper handle the size of a rolling pin, or maybe you have slightly more dainty hands? I know, I've covered quite a bit more than purely coffee tampers in this post – but I've done this simply because many people know they need a proper tamper to improve their espresso, but don't realize that there other very simple ways that you can also up your espresso game. Very strange looking sea-dwelling critter which is allegedly a fish, although I've often wondered if they're actually lobsters in disguise, and which I suspect are possibly capable of bike riding. Thanks to the edge support, this high-quality and beautiful tamper always lies horizontally and cleanly on your sieve.

I've tried other thinner tools, including one that I paid about fifty quid for, and this is my favourite among the ones I've tried. But, I'll take a deep breath, and very calmly state that “tamper” is the noun, the thing that you tamp with. Sorry to say but I feel this wasted my time as you don’t actually present any kind of factual basis for your top list apart from reading the ad copy which anyone can do. Portafilter simply means filter holder, by the way – and if you're asking “well why don't you refer to it as a filter holder?
