• All tamper handles are made of highly polished
aluminium, designed for maximum comfort, durability and perfect
tamping of your coffee.
• Bases are available in polished,
food grade Aluminium or Stainless Steel, and come in 58mm and 53mm
widths. Most have a curved base, although there is a flat base also
available in the 58mm aluminium style.
• The two part design allows easy cleaning
combined with maximum functionality
How to choose the tamper combination that's ideal
for you:
• Handle size and shape? – really a decision based
on hand size and visual appeal: smaller hands = short handles, larger
hands = long handles, some prefer the round design for easier grip,
its really your choice.
• Base size? – measure the inside diameter of your
filter basket, then select the base size that is slightly smaller
than this. Approximate conversions are 53mm = 2.09 inches, 58mm
= 2.28 inches
• Aluminium or stainless steel base? – some prefer
the stainless base due to the heavier weight, but The Coffee Stain’s
aluminium bases have been designed to provide the required weight for perfect tamping.
The decision is based on visual appeal and personal preference.
• Flat or curved base? – depends on your preference
– some say the flat base creates a more even dispersion of
water through the coffee, some prefer the curved base because they
feel it helps prevent channeling due to a more even spread of grounds
around the edge of the basket.
