Solis Tamper type 1030

A tamper is an indispensable tool for the perfect espresso. Tamping helps to ensure an even extraction. Have you ever thought about what happens if the coffee powder is not properly pressed into the portafilter? There is a good chance that the water will run through the filter very quickly. This leads to under-extraction and a watery coffee. Correct tamping ensures an even flow of water through the coffee powder. Balanced extraction is crucial to get the best flavour out of your coffee. This solid and durable tamper has a weight of 360 g, so you don't have to apply too much tamper pressure. Its flat underside provides a perfectly even surface. With a diameter of 53.4 mm, the tamper is suitable for 54 mm portafilters and filter inserts, with which many home espresso machines are equipped.
