Double-Headed Espresso Tamper and Distributor by MATOW
The 51mm Palm Tamper side creates a perfectly flat tamp surface every time, therefore creating a consistent puck density.
With it’s height adjustable collar you can adjust your tamp depth so that you tamp perfectly for your desired coffee dose.
HERES HOW IT WORKS:
STEP 1 - Load your portafilter basket with the desired amount of freshly ground coffee.
STEP 2 - Retract the distributor side to its shallowest depth, and place the distributor on your portafilter, blade side down.
STEP 3 - Gently spin the distributor until your coffee grounds have been evenly distributed and leveled. If the distributor does not reach the coffee, adjust the depth accordingly. Note: you do not want to be applying heavy pressure to the grounds at this stage -- only enough to level the coffee in the basket.
STEP 4 - Flip the distributor over and extend the tamper (flat side) to its maximum height. Tamp your grounds to your desired pressure.
STEP 5 - For consistent tamping every time, adjust the tamper depth so it matches the depth of the tamp you created in Step 4.
