Consistent tamping. Better espresso.
The Normcore V5 Spring-Loaded Tamper is engineered to deliver repeatable, level tamping with every shot. Featuring a precision-machined titanium PVD-coated stainless steel base, a self-leveling guide, and interchangeable calibrated springs, it removes the guesswork from puck preparation and helps produce consistently balanced espresso extractions.
Spring-Loaded Precision
The integrated spring mechanism provides consistent tamping pressure every time, reducing user variability and helping improve shot repeatability.
Self-Leveling Design
A leveling collar keeps the tamper perfectly square to the basket, minimizing uneven tamping and reducing the risk of channeling.
Titanium PVD-Coated Base
The precision stainless steel base features a durable titanium PVD coating that resists scratches, improves durability, and gives the tamper a premium finish.
Customizable Tamping Pressure
Three interchangeable springs allow you to select your preferred tamping force, making the V5 suitable for beginners and experienced home baristas alike.
