Lelit Tamper

This tamper is specifically engineered for the LELIT58 group with a 58.55 mm base. While it may physically fit other 58 mm baskets, it is optimized for the precision tolerances of Lelit equipment and may not provide the same fit for third-party portafilters.

The tamper is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the finish of the maple wood, wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid submerging it in water or using harsh detergents.

The 58.55 mm diameter is designed to provide a tighter fit within the basket, which helps minimize the amount of coffee grounds left on the sidewalls. This ensures a more consistent puck density and reduces the risk of channeling during extraction.

Yes, the stainless steel base provides a solid, weighted feel that helps you apply consistent pressure. Combined with the ergonomic maple handle, it allows for a stable and level tamp, which is essential for even water distribution.

Maple is a dense, durable hardwood that holds up well to the heat and humidity of a coffee station. As long as you keep the handle dry and avoid soaking it, it will maintain its integrity and aesthetic appeal for years.
