omgogoStainless Steel Coffee Tamper 51mm Barista Espresso Base Coffee Bean Press

Fits perfect. Feels nice in hand. Great quality. Would recommend. Espresso comes out better now that I have correct tamper!

Nice tamper (53 mm) all around for the Starbucks Barista espresso maker. Very nice weight in hand and well-machined. The black on the handle matches the black of my machine and appears to be unscratchable so far.Note: if you are using the stock pressurized portafilter, this is still nice to have but not essential.If you have an unpressurized portafilter, this will be more of a game changer, yielding even tamping and better shots. (A bottomless portafilter will give you an even better indication of tamping technique; you can see the shot coming through the bottom, beautiful when done properly!).Bottom line: I highly recommend this for those who want to go beyond the plastic tamper or who are seeking to squeeze every last bit of quality out of their Starbucks Barista without upgrading to a new machine (and/or grinder).

At this price I was impressed at the machining. The beveled edges , brushed surfaces and bottom surfacing are all done well. There are a few minor quality nicks less than 1/4 mm and not visible to the eye. The aluminum handle has a modern look, and matches well with the grey & black aesthetic of the Gaggia Pro classic. Diameter tolerance is very good, fitting into the portafilter with about 0.5mm clearance all around.I recommend unthreading the handle and adding a dollop of silicon (food safe) grease to the threads. This will prevent moisture from collecting between the steel base & the aluminum handle during cleaning. After using wipe the tamper with a moist cloth to keep clean.This is an easy recommendation for anyone owning a 58mm portafilter like Gaggia Pro classic or other commercial grade espresso machines.

Inexpensive and does a good job. It has a good weight to it, and fits well in the hand when tamping.

This tamper works great with my espresso maker. Fitment is perfect and feels super heavy duty. Just don’t drop it on your toes !

I bought the 51mm tamper for my De’Longhi ECP3220 & EC680 and I’m very happy with the product. It fits perfectly. Good quality and ergonomic design. Would recommend!!!

This tamper is absolutely perfect. The weight is just right it feels weighty and sturdy. This was a perfect way to up my espresso game. Now my shots are coming out even and smooth. The polish on this is great and it may have a anti static treatment as none of the grinds stick to the metal surface. An added bonus is the height of the tamping surface before it tapers to the handle portion. It allows me to tamp evenly with the top of the portafilter and be more consistent. I use this with my Gaggia Classic 58mm portafilter basket. Get this tamper you will not be disappointed!

I bought the La Pavoni Millenium 52mm basket for my Breville 800esxl, and I needed a tamper, the 51mm fit almost perfectly. The actual tamper feels nice in the hand, it has some weight but it's not too heavy. The handle is hollow and screws into the base, but it feels really secure, the finish on the handle makes it feel more premium than the price makes you believe.
