## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why would one want or need a tamper**
A: Espresso needs to be packed firmly in the portafilter basket and a tamper is great for this because it fits nicely inside the portafilter. When I got my espresso machine, I forgot to buy a tamper too and I was left trying to tamp the espresso puck with other objects, but a tamper does this much more evenly than trying to use a makeshift tamper. Tamping is one of the necessary steps to great espresso shots!

**Q: What are the diameters of the top and the bottom?**
A: It is cheap. It just works. I put calibers on mine yesterday and got 50.3 mm and 55.7 mm. It is cheap. Don't expect precision for 6 usd.

**Q: This item says it's dishwasher safe, but it came out dull and tarnished. Is there a way I can polish it and prevent that from happening in the future?**
A: It is aluminum, which doesn't do well in the dishwasher. Polish it up best you can, try a green scotch brite, and don't put it in the dishwasher again. I just wipe mine off with a paper towel or cloth and that's enough . It doesn't really require that much washing.

**Q: where is it place?**
A: To press the coffee in the espresso coffee holder. Pressing the coffee helps increase the pressure running through the coffee into the carafe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Coffee press
*by A***O on November 18, 2025*

Works perfect for my coffee!! Good quality

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tamper
*by I***T on August 18, 2009*

Used over a year: great value, works, and aluminum body matches my coffee machine. The smaller disk of the tamper presses the coffee grounds and the other disk is the handle (I suppose it could be reversed if you have a larger basket filter). Tamper fits most porta-filters but you can modify it if your basket is smaller (instructions below). Easily pushes commonly recommended 30 lb. pressure; in fact it can take my entire body weight which all tampers can't do. Simple to clean; a quick wash/rinse with no worry of rust or extra time cleaning crevices or caring for fancy wood handles. Other tampers are more expensive. Why spend the extra money? When tamping, place the setup on a sturdy, non-slippery surface, some people place it on a paper towel. You can experiment to get the right feel of the proper weight by pressing down on a bathroom scale. While tamping, use a screwdriver-rotating motion about 1/4 turn, lift up, then twist in the OPPOSITE direction to prevent the grounds from clinging to the disk. (Modification instructions) If the tamper is a little too big for your filter basket, you can file the outside edge of the tamper disc with a hardware metal file and fine sandpaper. File the tamper by rotating the outer edge of the puck over the file to make an evenly round reduction. Stop once in awhile and put the disc in the filter to see how far the puck goes down; the basket filter may be slightly shaped like a cone. You don't need to fit the disc down to the bottom because the grinds don't compress to the bottom. Stop filing about 1/4 inch past the level to where you usually would fill coffee, to account for coffee compression. Use fine sandpaper to smooth the edge and wash. If you file it manually, it'll take maybe 1/2 hour while you watch TV. There are online coffee aficionados who can give you further hints to a perfect espresso like Coffeegeek or you can google it. It's true about the size of coffee grounds will affect tamping so you can experiment. Italian ground is much smaller than American ground. Enjoy!
