Espresso Tamper

HIC Espresso Tamper

• HIC's Dual-Sided Espresso Tamper compresses ground espresso coffee into a puck that's level and dense for a richer, more flavorful espresso brew
• Made from heavyweight aluminum; resists damage caused by the naturally occurring acids found in coffee; strong and durable
• Compress ground espresso into a dense, evenly dispersed puck through which pressurized water flows more slowly for a richer, flavorful extraction
• Creates a necessary gap between the top of the grounds and the machine so the dampened grounds don't swell and clog the water disbursement screen
• Dual ends (50-millimeters and 55-millimeters) fit most portafilter baskets; 4-ounce weight for effortless tamping; hand wash in warm, soapy water
