Coffee Tamper MOTTA 57 mm — brown handle, flat base, stainless steel

The MOTTA 57 mm coffee tamper with a flat base and brown handle is a compact tool designed for compressing ground coffee in single-group portafilters. Made with a stainless steel base and an ergonomically shaped brown handle, this tamper provides a stable contact surface and uniform pressure across the coffee puck. It is intended for use by professional baristas and home users seeking consistent tamping for reliable espresso extraction.

Advantages

The stainless steel flat base delivers an even, level tamp across the entire 57 mm coffee bed, reducing channeling and promoting balanced extraction. The brown handle is shaped for a secure grip and allows steady, controlled pressure during tamping. The compact size and durable construction make the tamper suitable for frequent use and easy to store with single-group portafilters.

Suitable for

• Single-group portafilters with a 57 mm basket diameter
• Home espresso machines and compact commercial groupheads
• Baristas and coffee enthusiasts who require consistent puck preparation
• Tamping before espresso extraction to improve shot consistency

Key specifications

• Base diameter: 57 mm (flat base)
• Base material: stainless steel for durability and even surface
• Handle color and material: brown ergonomic handle (material: resin/wood composite feel)
• Design: compact, single-piece base with attached handle for stable tamping

How to use

Fill the portafilter basket with the desired dose of ground coffee and distribute the grounds evenly. Hold the MOTTA 57 mm tamper by the brown handle with your dominant hand, position the flat stainless steel base level on the coffee surface, and apply steady, vertical pressure until the puck is compact and uniform. Remove the tamper and proceed to brew the espresso. Regular, controlled tamping pressure helps achieve consistent extraction and shot quality.

Usage recommendations

Use the tamper with a properly sized 57 mm basket to ensure a flush fit. Apply consistent pressure each time and keep the base clean and dry to maintain even contact. If your portafilter has a recessed or convex basket, adjust distribution techniques to achieve a level surface before tamping. Store the tamper in a dry place away from direct heat.
