MHW 3BOMBER Flash Tamper 2.0, Titan - 53mm

By tamping, the coffee grounds in the filter are compacted to achieve a firm and even coffee puck with a smooth and level surface.
Proper tamping prevents channeling and ensures an even extraction of all the coffee grounds. This allows all the flavor compounds from the coffee to be extracted.

This is the second generation of the Flash Tamper from MHW 3Bomber, and the base is additionally coated with black titanium.

The Flash Tamper 2.0 is a pressure-regulated tamper with a preset pressure of 13.6 kg. When the preset pressure is reached, a mechanical signal sounds as feedback, and the tamper releases the pressure. After several trials, MHW 3Bomber found that at a constant pressure of 13.6 kg, the extraction rate is nearly the same across different amounts of coffee grounds and various extraction times. The outer ring, which rests flat on the portafilter, ensures that the tamper is always pressed straight down. The tamper is simply placed on top and pressed down, with the spring pulling the base back up.

This tamper fits perfectly on 53 mm portafilters.
Through repeated tests, MHW 3Bomber determined that 53.35 mm is the perfect size for leveling tools and tampers. These fit precisely in 58 mm portafilters and reduce coffee ground waste.

The tamper has an ergonomic handle and feels good in the hand. Additionally, the base features concentric grooves, allowing more coffee grounds to come into contact with the water, leading to better extraction.

The entire tamper is made from high-quality materials. The handle is made of solid walnut wood, the middle part consists of an aluminum alloy, and the spring and base (titanium-coated) are made of stainless steel (SUS304).
The entire tamper is disassemblable and can therefore be easily cleaned.
