Lelit Tamper

This tamper is specifically designed for LELIT58 group heads and features a 58.55 mm diameter. It is intended for use with Lelit machines that utilize the 58mm professional standard; please verify your specific machine model's portafilter size before purchasing.

The slightly larger 58.55 mm diameter is engineered to provide a tighter fit within the filter basket compared to a standard 58 mm tamper. This helps reduce the amount of loose coffee grounds left on the sidewalls of the basket, leading to a more consistent extraction.

The wooden handle is shaped for ergonomics, providing a natural, secure grip that makes it easier to apply consistent pressure. Beyond comfort, the weight and texture of the wood offer a tactile feedback that helps you feel when the coffee bed is level.

No, the base is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, which is highly resistant to both heat and corrosion. It is designed to withstand the daily moisture and temperature changes inherent in espresso preparation without degrading over time.

Yes, by ensuring a perfectly level and even compression of your coffee grounds, this tamper minimizes the risk of channeling. A uniform puck allows water to flow through the coffee bed evenly, which is essential for achieving a balanced, full-bodied shot.
