Espresso Tamper 50 & 60 Mm Sizes Cast Alloy Hand Coffee Reviews
| 51 of 55 people found the following review helpful  Tamps well, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Espresso Tamper 50 & 60 Mm Sizes Cast Alloy Hand Coffee I have a DeLonghi EC155 and the smaller size fits very nicely for tamping. It is able to hold over 50 lbs of pressure with no problem. I used the tamping method from Good Eats, where you put 50lbs of pressure, then twist. 34 of 36 people found the following review helpful  Does what it's supposed to do, By A. D. Sian (Glendale, CA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Espresso Tamper 50 & 60 Mm Sizes Cast Alloy Hand Coffee I have looked everywhere for a tamper that would fit Saeco Aroma for a sensible price, but 53mm tampers were either too expensive or just unavailable. Although this one doesn't fit properly, the small end of it covers about 90% of the basket. Overall, I'm happy with it. It's a temporary solution. Tamper brand or construction is not a huge variable in the resulting quality of an espresso shot. You might at well use something out of the hardware store as long as it tamps the loose grounds well enough. This is why I am skeptical of tampers that cost 50-100 dollars. If RSVP Terry tamper fits your basket's proportions you should consider it. 140 of 173 people found the following review helpful  Not a tamper for you if you want the best tasting espresso., By This review is from: Espresso Tamper 50 & 60 Mm Sizes Cast Alloy Hand Coffee Yes, 1 star! I would go less if I could. While yes, this could be a step up from the cheapo plastic tamps that arrive with your machine, it is a very small step, and in some cases a step backwards. I invite you to consider saving up a little longer and getting a better tamper. The "Rosewood" brand tampers are a knockoff of the industry standard Reg Barber, and are just over $20 here on Amazon. They are proof that you don't need to spend $70 if you are a home user that is not pulling hundreds of shots a day.You really do need a tamper that is sized to properly fit your porta-filter, or your pulls WILL suffer. Measure the inside of the filter and buy accordingly. The pressurized water will go the path of least resistance, and if you tamper is too small, you will over extract the outside edge and under extract the middle. The result is a shot with little to no body and bitter. Did I mention bitter? A good tamper makes a HUGE difference. Being flat on both ends... Read more |
