Hey coffee lover,
As you find yourself falling deeper down the espresso rabbit hole, you'll come to realize the importance of the right accessories. Once you've got the best grinder, the best espresso machine, and the best coffee beans, improving your shots even further is all about the little details.
One of the most important details? The tamper. Getting that perfectly flat and compact puck of ground coffee is absolutely crucial for achieving a delicious and well-extracted shot.
But with literally hundreds of available tampers on the market, how are you supposed to choose? Why are some so expensive? Is there even any difference between them?
The short answer is yes. There are different types of tampers, and one of them is probably the right type for you.
Regular, calibrated, and palm tampers all have their pros and cons, and we've broken them down in this easy-to-follow guide. So read on, and then get ready to take your espresso to the next level!
