About this deal

Not a great deal to say about this really, a fairly standard looking tamper with a wooden handle and stainless steel base. I'm not sure if the weight is correct, it says 399g which would make it particularly heavy weight! The Matow Dual Tamper and Distributor is perfect for those wanting a single tool for the distributor and tamping steps in their espresso making. This 2 in 1, combines a tamper and distributor into a single tool, which is super convenient and will save you money. You can also get dual sided tampers, which look like a tiny dumbbell, with different size tampers on either side. The design is simple yet expertly crafted with a weighty base and ergonomic handle it makes tamping super easy.

These are height adjustable which simply means that you can remove the silver ring to make the handle slightly shorter. It weighs 354g, and it seems like quite a lot of tamper for the money. This draws more flavour from the coffee beans, helps create espresso crema and results in a more balanced and flavoured espresso coffee. It is an industry standard with a size of 49 mm as an industry machine, including home espresso machines that use a 49 mm portafilter. It assures users of durability as it comes with a base made out of stainless steel that is food-safe, long-lasting, and durable.

One thing I would say, is that I really don't like plastic tampers – and that there should be a rule against brands calling a scoop with a flat bottom, a tamper. A lot of domestic espresso machines come with these flat bottomed scoops which supposedly double as tampers, and these are about as useful as something really not all that useful. This one is has a similar shaped handle to the Edesia tamper above, but a slightly more standard shaped base – and comes with a tamper mat, for the tamper to sit in.

The tampers have a base made from 304 grade stainless steel and feature a quality aluminium or wood handle. In addition, the handle has been designed to ensure a comfortable and strong grip. That is the Rattleware Round Handle tamper is a reliable and sturdy tamper built to last and deliver consistent pressure for a perfect espresso.Many people think that a good quality coffee tamper is a ‘nice to have.’ While it is true that a good coffee tamper won’t automatically improve your espressos, it is an essential tool for the serious home barista. Another Lelit tamper, and this one is all stainless steel, yet at 250g apparently lighter than the one above which has an Aluminium handle, which amplifies my suspicions that this tamper does not have an auto shut off… 😉

For something in the mid price range now we have the Normcore V4 58mm espresso coffee tamper. This is a well designed spring loaded tamper crafted from solid materials and designed to ensure you achieve a consistent tamp on every occasion. But anyway – if you buy the Bambino or any espresso machine which comes with a plastic tamper, I'd highly recommend buying a proper tamper (and you'll need a 53mm tamper for the Bambino). I’m not saying this to scare you. Learning to make a good espresso is a skill that takes time to learn. Still, it is achievable to anyone who commits to learning. The Rhino coffee tamper has a weighted stainless steel base that screws into an aluminium handle. The no-nonsense design and solid structure results in an espresso presser that you can trust every day. Distribution means exactly what it sounds like it means, the even distribution of the coffee in the basket. There are obviously masses of particles of ground coffee beans in a portafilter basket, in fact, I've counted them and there are approximately… haha, you didn't fall for that did you? ;-).True spring powered tampers use an actuator that allows a spring to uncoil at some given force (typically from 15 pounds force to say 30). Examples would be Force tamper, and Bravo tamper. What is calibrated tamp? Cadwalader, Z. (2019, January 23). Barista Wrist Leads All Restaurant-Related Injuries in Time Lost. Retrieved from https://sprudge.com/barista-wrist-leads-all-restaurant-related-injuries-in-time-lost-139783.html So while having the best espresso distribution tool is a great idea, it is not used in place of a coffee tamper. In fact, generally in a coffee tamper kit – you’ll get both. The Rhino collection of tampers come with all the features you need to ensure consistently even and compact coffee grounds to set you up for the perfectly extracted espresso. Tamping is a really important part of the coffee making process because if you don’t tamp, you’ve basically got a loose pile of grounds in your portafilter, which doesn’t make for a great coffee.
