IKAPE Tamper And Distributor

You should select the size that matches the inner diameter of your portafilter basket. The IKAPE Black Edition is available in 51mm, 54mm, and 58mm, so check your machine's manual or measure your basket to ensure a precise fit.

No, the distributor features an innovative self-gravity system that automatically adjusts to your coffee dose. This eliminates the need for manual depth settings and ensures a consistent, level bed of grounds every time.

The ripple base is designed to improve water flow through the coffee puck. By creating small channels in the surface of the grounds, it helps prevent channeling and promotes a more even extraction.

The tamper is factory-calibrated to provide a consistent 30 pounds of force, which is the industry standard for optimal extraction. This setting is fixed to ensure you achieve the same results with every shot without needing to guess your pressure.

The tool features a modular design that allows you to disassemble the components for thorough cleaning. Wipe the natural wood handle with a dry cloth and hand-wash the stainless steel and aluminum parts with mild soap and water, ensuring they are completely dry before reassembly.

The clover base is engineered to move coffee grounds more efficiently across the basket, resulting in a more uniform density. This shape helps redistribute the grounds evenly, reducing the risk of uneven extraction compared to a traditional flat base.
