The Tamper
The most repetitive motion behind bar deserves better. The Tamper’s 58.4mm diameter fits a VST basket exactly while the unique double flange not only eliminates the frustrating vacuum effect but also helps keep you vertical.
Forever Materials
Made with military-spec type III hard anodized aluminium and a 304 stainless steel flat base, the Barista Hustle Tamper is durable but lightweight to minimize fatigue.
58.40mm
The right diameter for modern espresso baskets. We even specified a sharp corner radius to make sure you’re not missing out on any tamping surface area.
Replace the Base
A tamper’s lifespan is bound to include a few run-ins with the floor, so the base is easily and affordably replaceable.
Keep it Safe
Don’t worry about knocks and scrapes in shipping or en route to a bar shift; all tampers come in a custom foam zipper case.
