Flat Base Stainless Steel Coffee Tamper Machine Espresso Tamper (Red)

Seems very well built, and total weight was 451g on my scale. Engraved "L Beans" on base. No rust/particles when I unscrewed the handle. The threaded hole in the base measured approx. 17mm diameter, not sure if this is a standard size in case someone wanted to put on a different handle. The base and handle were both non-magnetic, so it appears to be a machined stainless steel base and machined aluminum handle. I have the 58mm which fits my Pasquini Livia90 and Gaggia Classic baskets perfectly, and tamping is now much easier and more consistent than before. For the $22.99 price, this tamper is a bargain. I would not hesitate to show these to any home, or pro, barista!

Love the quality, wash-ability, and the look. Wish it was a deeper shade of red but this is the only red one I could find with this quality. Glad I have it. Very fancy look and feel. Not to mention that it does the job without much effort - very hefty in weight.

I had been using a 25 mm aluminum flat based tamp for years, but decided to buy this one on a whim. Boy, I can't believe what a difference a perfect weight and diameter makes. Now I don't have to guess about the proper pressure and each tamp is smooth and even. The espresso is definitely improved with just this little investment.

Perfect size for the older model Vev Vigano 6-Cup Stovetop Espresso Maker! Solid, well-made, comfortable handle grip.Definitely a quality tamper. (be sure you measure your espresso maker's basket width to ensure you get the right size tamper)

Not much to say; it works!
