IKAPE 53.3mm Espresso Tamper ☕
Product description
This calibrated spring loaded tamper solves uneven puck density and inconsistent shots, offering steadier pressure for better extraction. It works with bottomless portafilters and targets users aiming for repeatable results, using a measured mechanism to reduce common tamping errors. 🎯
Key features
The tool brings a consistent approach to tamping by combining a threaded stainless steel base with a retractable, spring loaded design. It helps create a flat, concentric ring surface in the puck that favors even water flow and extraction, which many baristas associate with improved flavor balance. The base is food safe and rust resistant, and the handle feel supports controlled downward motion for repeatable tamping. ☕
Who it’s for
It’s a great fit if you are a home or professional barista who wants consistent puck compression and repeatable results, you use a bottomless or standard portafilter, and you value a durable tool that resists corrosion. You may want to skip it if you need a tamper for a nonstandard basket size not listed or if you prefer a non spring-loaded manual model for a different tamping workflow.
Tech specs
- Format: 53.3 mm
- Material: Stainless steel

The product description highlights a patent note and sizing guidance for choosing 53 mm versus 54 mm models, and a one year after-sales option is mentioned by the seller. The overall tone focuses on feature to benefit description and notes that consistent pressure helps reduce extraction variability, according to the manufacturer. ⚙️
