MHW-3BOMBER Espresso Tamper

A calibrated tamper ensures you apply the exact same amount of pressure to every puck, removing human error from the equation. This consistency is essential for achieving a balanced extraction and preventing channeling.

The tamper base is designed to sit flush against the rim of your portafilter basket. This alignment forces the tamper to stay perfectly horizontal, preventing slanted pucks that lead to uneven water flow.

The flat base is the industry standard for a smooth, uniform puck surface. The ripple base is designed to increase surface area and improve water distribution, which some baristas prefer for specific roast profiles.

The tamper features stepless height adjustment that accommodates up to 13mm, making it versatile enough to handle various basket depths. It is designed to work effectively regardless of the amount of coffee grounds used.

You must measure the internal diameter of your portafilter basket, not the outside. Common sizes include 51mm, 54mm, and 58mm, so check your machine's manual or measure your basket accurately before selecting your size.

The internal spring system is designed for durability and automatic resetting, requiring no regular maintenance. Simply wipe the stainless steel base clean with a dry cloth after each use to keep it in optimal condition.
