Materials & Craftsmanship

This tamper exemplifies the Creamia Lab commitment to purposeful design and premium materials. The base is forged from SUS304 stainless steel, renowned for its corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability—essential for daily use in demanding environments. The handle is precision-machined from aluminum alloy, offering both strength and lightweight balance. Topping it off, a warm walnut wood cover adds a touch of natural elegance and unique character to every piece. Please note: due to the natural variation in walnut wood, each tamper cover may display slight differences in color and grain, making your tool truly one of a kind.

How to Use for Consistent Espresso Results

• Step 1: Distribute your coffee grounds evenly in the portafilter using your preferred WDT tool or distribution method.
• Step 2: Select the appropriate tamper size for your portafilter basket (51mm, 53.35mm, or 58.35mm).
• Step 3: Hold the tamper by the ergonomic handle and position it on top of the coffee bed.
• Step 4: Apply downward pressure; the dual spring mechanism will compress and guide the tamper to a level, consistent depth (approx. 23mm).
• Step 5: Release the tamper—the spring will automatically rebound, ready for your next shot.

This process ensures a flat, even tamp every time, which is critical for achieving balanced extraction and full-bodied espresso flavor.
