KeMar Coffee Tamper Stainless Steel – 50 mm Precision Tamper for Perfect Espresso
The secret to a perfect crema lies in the details: The KeMar KEM-117P Tamper is the essential tool for every barista. It ensures even compaction of the coffee grounds in the portafilter, guaranteeing optimal extraction without "channeling."
Solid Design for Optimal Pressure
A good tamper must feel heavy in the hand. With a weight of approx. 340 grams, the KeMar tamper allows for consistent and vertical pressure on the coffee grounds.
-
High-Quality Material: The base is made of solid SUS304 stainless steel. This is rust-proof, food-safe, and extremely durable.
-
Ergonomic Handle: The elegant aluminum handle is shaped to prevent wrist fatigue and provide maximum control during tamping.
Perfect Fit: 50 mm for 51 mm Portafilters
The KEM-117P Tamper was specially developed for the KeMar Barista Delicioso KEM-117, but it is universally suitable for all portafilter machines with a basket diameter of 50 mm to 51 mm.
-
Precise Edges: The flat bottom ensures a mirror-smooth surface of the coffee puck, allowing water to flow evenly through the grounds.
-
Hygienic & Easy to Clean: Thanks to the high-quality materials, the tamper is dishwasher-safe (however, we recommend hand cleaning for the aluminum handle to maintain its shine long-term).
Why the Right Tamper Makes All the Difference
Simple plastic tampers, often included with machines, do not allow for even pressure. With the KeMar stainless steel tamper, you prevent water from running too quickly through the grounds. The result: a full-bodied, aromatic espresso with a dense, golden-brown crema.
