Search Results for ‘tampers’

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie here and looking for some recommendations on a decent tamper and thoughts on a distribution tool? I have searched all previous posts, but they are either a few years old or don't have enough suggestions for me. I find it difficult to consistently tamp and my small...

I'm selling two nearly new VST baskets (7g and 15g), boxed, for £15 pounds each. The 7g VST is surprisingly good for a single, by the way. [sold] I've got a 58mm OE Dosing Funnel, for £15, including postage. [sold] I've also also got two Motta tampers - a 58mm (black wooden handle), a 58.4mm...

I would be really grateful if as many of you as possible could have a go at this questionnaire. Since technology really isn't my thing, I have fingers crossed that it works okay. I have checked with Glenn and have the thumbs up for posting, so just need as many as possible to have a bash...

I have a number of items that I am not getting any use from so have decided to move them on to clear up some space, all items are used but in great condition below is a list of the items with the price next to them, I will put a separate post up with a photo of each item. Tampers: 1...

Is it a natural progression to develop an urge to keep wanting to buy new tampers even though the ones you have are sufficient?? I cant seem to help myself......

Looks very much out of stock everywhere, unsurprisingly given the price. Any recommendations for alternative tampers to fit a VST 18g basket (and not to break the bank)?

Very very very newbie asking a ridiculous question so I apologise now………. :rolleyes: My wife has just bought me a Daulit Espressivo machine for me to have a go at making coffee for the first time, in fact it hasn't even arrived yet from the shop yet so I'm still restless and...

Ok Hi All, I'm looking for some feedback from anyone who has a tamper which has a pressure stop at 30lbs. Has it made a difference to your coffee making for the extra cost of buying one? Is it worth it? I have just bought scales and they have made a massive difference. My shots are really...

I use different machines a fair bit with friends, at both works, at home and sometimes a small amount of training but there seems to be no one site that lists all of the main machines and their respective basket sizes. I have taken the liberty of up-loading a list of basket sizes from the...

You guys seem to know your coffee machines pretty well and all the gear that goes with it. I'm almost afraid to ask what might sound like a basic maybe even silly question. But hell it's Christmas so you'll probably go easy on me. Two questions really. The first is about steam wands, the second...

Hi all, I'm playing around with an idea at the moment of getting some tampers made and the handles would be customizable. The basic idea would be the base would remain the same (53/58mm etc) and the handle could be multi coloured, say 4-5 different colours. I'm thinking from a business point...

Ok guys and girls. I got a new Gaggia Classic. I'm using the plastic enclosed tamper. It looks cheap but is there any advantage to getting a 'real' one other than looking cooler? I mean, will that cup really taste any better? Let's hear your responses! Thanks.

Coffee Creations are having a clear out, and you could bag your self a bargain. http://tinyurl.com/9b39n9
