Description
During our extensive testing, we discovered an important consideration with dual-purpose tamper-levellers: the distribution surface becomes your tamping platform when using the tamper function, which isn’t ideal for comfort.
Our team found that if you’re comfortable with a lighter tamping technique after distribution, these combination tools work brilliantly. However, for those who prefer applying significant pressure during tamping, we’d suggest considering separate tools for optimal comfort and control.
Key Features:
- Professional-grade flat stainless steel tamper
- Precision-engineered four-spoke distribution tool
- Premium food-grade 304 stainless steel construction
- Clear, precise depth adjustment markers
From a practical standpoint, we appreciate how this 2-in-1 design helps save both money and counter space, whilst reducing the number of tools you need to keep track of in your coffee corner.
Through our testing sessions, we noticed that many coffee enthusiasts are perfectly happy applying gentle pressure after using the distribution tool. If that matches your technique, this combination tool could be perfect for you. However, our more experienced baristas pointed out that the spoke design isn’t the most ergonomic surface for palm pressure during tamping.
Speaking from personal experience within our team, those of us with wrist or shoulder sensitivity actually prefer a lighter tamping technique, making this tool quite suitable. It really comes down to your individual preferences and brewing style – though we must admit, “different tampers for different baristas” doesn’t quite have the same ring as the original saying!
