The coffee grounds are always flat and even for a great extraction. Seems sturdy enough, I have been using it quite often for about a year and no issues or complains at all. Easy to clean, on a day to day usually just a soft brush to dust off the coffee es enough with a better clean about once per month. Review: Great quality for the price. Doesn’t fit Breville Bambino stock basket. - Bought this for my breville bambino and just word to the wise. The breville bambino portafilter is tapered and this will NOT fit the stock portafilter basket (not even the double shot one). I just so happened to buy a naked bottom portafilter at the same time so I use that instead. Make sure your basket is not tapered at all. I like that it comes with extra springs in case they wear out, so that’s nice. The whole thing does feel nice a sturdy in my hand, nice and heavy. It has a metal cap you’re supposed to store it in, but I wish that was rubber instead. Also I think that it maybe could tamp a liiiiitle bit “deeper”. I’m worried that if I use a deeper basket or if I just use less coffee (I currently do 18g in, 40 out), it may not be able to tamp all the way. But you’re not technically supposed to do that with espresso baskets anyway but just a thought in case you always brew single shots (like 9g). ## Features - Why Normcore Spring-loaded Tamper?

Just squeeze the spring, between your fingers, You should, Really easily, fell the difference, in resistance. **Q: Is the 58.5mm works with ECM synchronika portafilter ?** A: Yes **Q: Does the tamping base move downward into the basket as pressure is applied, or is it fixed to the leveling guide?** A: The tamping disc is moving separately and it is suspended by the load spring which is interchangeable. And the leveling guide disc sits on a separate spring which is softer. **Q: Should this make a click like a torque wrench once proper pressure is applied? Mine doesn't with any spring** A: NO, pressing down all the way to the base just applies full spring pressure to the pick.
