Tamping compacts the coffee powder in the sieve to produce a firm and uniform coffee cake with a smooth and even surface.
Proper tamping prevents the channel effect and ensures even extraction of the entire coffee grounds. This releases all the aromatic compounds from the coffee.
This is the second generation of the Flash Tamper from MHW 3Bomber, additionally the base is coated with black titanium.
The Flash Tamper 2.0 is a pressure-controlled tamper with a preset pressure of 13.6 kg. When the preset pressure is reached, a mechanical signal sounds as feedback, and the tamper releases the pressure again. After several tests, MHW 3Bomber found that at a constant pressure of 13.6 kg, the extraction rate is almost the same for different powder quantities and different extraction times. The outer ring, which rests flat on the portafilter, ensures that the tamper is always pressed vertically downwards. The tamper is simply placed on the base and pressed down; the spring pulls the base back up.
This tamper fits perfectly on 51 mm portafilters.
The tamper has an ergonomic handle and fits comfortably in the hand. The base also features concentric grooves, allowing more coffee grounds to come into contact with the water, resulting in better extraction.
The entire tamper is made of high-quality materials. The handle is made of solid walnut, the middle section is made of an aluminum alloy, and the spring and base (titanium-coated) are made of stainless steel (SUS304).
The entire tamper can be disassembled and is therefore easy to clean.
