Tamping compresses the ground coffee, slowing the rate at which the espresso is extracted, liberating the full flavour of the coffee. Coffee prepared without tamping will tend to be watery, have a straw like flavour, and will lack crema. How to choose the right Tamper size? When choosing a tamper, it is important to select one with the diameter appropriate for your machine. If your tamper is too small for the basket, certain areas in your ‘puk’ will experience higher pressure than others, which will result in uneven extraction and a very unpleasant cup. There are two options : 1.To measure the baskit. This option is we do not recommende this option, because it needs an equipment this appropriate accuracy and skills to use it. 2. Find machine specification that describes the exact brand model or to contact the manufacturer of the coffee machine for that information. Please do not order the tamper/ base if you are not sure about the size! Thanks for viewing this item.

Well made part
Fantastic part. I made a 3/8-16 attachment for a custom remade cutoff of a signature tool I make for work with carbon fiber, burdseye maple, and african blackwood as the handle. It's a thing of beauty with this at the business end. The bottom surface is flat and nicely ground to an smooth machined finish. My only complaint is that the top side is fairly roughly machined as if the cutting tool was dull or running at the wrong feed rate or something. It's smooth to the touch and shouldn't cause cleaning issues, but it just drops it from a 5 star appearance. I confess I'm splitting hairs, but I expect most coffee geeks tend to do that. Seriously, don't hesitate to pick this if you're making an espresso tamper from scratch.

Works fine. Not sure why it's sold separately from the handle.

This Tamper fits the Rok espresso great. You need to provide your own handle
This Tamper fits the Rok espresso great. You need to provide your own handle. I found a long lag bolt that I had hanging around and it fit the threads.
