Happy Tamper

Espresso Should Make You Happy

Spring-loaded calibrated tampers are one of the hottest innovations in the puck prep space in recent years, improving on threaded puck-style tampers in a very ergonomic design. The Happy Tamper features an adjustable inner spring that allows the user to set tension between 6.5lbs-40lbs as desired, and an outer ring that utilizes the edges of the portafilter to ensure a perfectly flat tamp every time. Puck-style tampers also help relieve some of the physical stresses to your wrist that traditional tampers can cause over time. This tamper features a 58.55mm piston which is intended for oversized, non-ridged precision baskets like VST or Pullman. If your espresso machine features a 58mm group head, combine this tamper with a precision basket and you'll immediately notice an improvement in consistency and evenness of extraction in your espresso!
