58 mm Aluminum Reg Barber Tamper – Espresso Supply 21420-58



An awesome tamper for the home barista!! :-)

What can I say??


I really LOVE this tamper!! I love the build quality and heft for the price, (I ended up getting the stainless steel base for mine). I like that I don’t have to work nearly as hard to tamp my espresso puck anymore and I can get a superior tamp EVERY TIME!! :-)


This, (along with my new grinder), has made my espresso making much more of a joy. I can get awesome crema and a reliable puck every time. I also like the build quality and reliability of this tamper. I had a tamper before that was so light and not very well made, and, WOW, what a difference build quality makes!!! :-D


The only downside was that I paid almost $75 for this seemingly simple piece of equipment. That sounds like a lot, until you consider that these are handmade by a small workshop, and they do very high quality craftsmanship. I think I am more than willing to pay for that. I don’t know what you think, but I think it’s worth $75 for the amount of work that…
