ECM Tamper

This tamper has a 58mm diameter, which is the industry standard for most professional-grade espresso machines, including E61 group heads. We recommend checking your specific portafilter basket size, as some home machines use smaller diameters like 53mm or 54mm.

A flat base is the most versatile option for standard portafilter baskets. It provides a uniform, level surface across the entire coffee bed, which is the most effective way to prevent channeling and ensure even water distribution during extraction.

Yes, the handle is crafted from bakelite and features an ergonomic shape designed to fit naturally in your palm. Its weight and balance make it comfortable to use, even if you are pulling multiple shots back-to-back.

At nearly 400 grams, this tamper is substantial enough to do much of the heavy lifting for you. The added mass helps you achieve a consistent, level tamp with less physical effort, allowing the tool's weight to help compress the coffee grounds evenly.

The polished stainless steel base is very easy to maintain. Simply wipe it down with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove any coffee residue, and it will remain in excellent condition.
