Premium Materials & Artisan Craftsmanship

Every component of the Flash Tamper 2.0 is selected for durability and tactile satisfaction. The base is crafted from SUS304 stainless steel, renowned for its corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning—ideal for daily use in demanding environments. The handle is made from natural walnut, offering a warm, organic feel and visually striking grain patterns. An aluminum alloy core ensures the tamper remains lightweight yet robust. Please note: each walnut handle is unique, with natural variations, tree scars, and mineral lines that add character without affecting performance.

How to Use & Workflow Tips

Using the Flash Tamper 2.0 is intuitive and rewarding. Simply load your portafilter with ground coffee, position the tamper, and press down until you hear the distinct “click”—your 30 lbs of pressure is perfectly applied. For those seeking a lighter tamp, swap in the included 15 lb spring following the straightforward disassembly and installation steps:

• Disassemble components from right to left.
• Remove the internal pin and replace the spring.
• Reassemble, ensuring all parts are securely in place.
• Test for correct pressure and sound feedback before use.
