The Pesado Black/Iris Tamper is a precision tool designed for tamping coffee grounds evenly and effectively. With a 58.5mm diameter and a 90-degree edge, it maximises basket coverage and reduces the chance of channelling, leading to a more consistent extraction. The tamper features a modular handle made from luxury Iris wood, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and durability for serious coffee enthusiasts.
The PESADO 58.5 tamper has been created to perfect the coffee tamping procedure. Our tamper diameter is 58.5mm with a precision machined 90 degree edge to maximise basket coverage.
The sharp edges extend the effective tamping area and get full coverage of the basket, leaving no residue and maximising consistency. Reducing un-tamped grounds means reducing the chance of channelling, and increased consistency over the coffee puck will result in a more even extraction and a higher extraction yield.
These premium modular handles have been developed for those with luxury in mind. Enhance your coffee setup with the bright colours from the Iris wood.

The Pesado Black/Iris Tamper is designed for coffee enthusiasts and professionals who prioritise precision in their tamping process. Its 58.5mm diameter is ideal for most standard espresso baskets, making it suitable for both home baristas and café environments. If you are seeking to improve your coffee extraction consistency and reduce channelling, this tamper is an excellent choice.
The Pesado Black/Iris Tamper features a diameter of 58.5mm and a height of 91mm. It weighs 490g for the tamper base and 545g for the full tamper. The base is made from 316 grade stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. The handle is crafted from POM, a thermoplastic known for its high stiffness and low friction, while the modular timber end is made from birch wood that is vacuum dyed and coated for heat and water resistance.
The Pesado Black/Iris Tamper is compatible with most espresso machines that use a standard 58.5mm portafilter basket. This makes it versatile for use in various setups, whether at home or in commercial settings. However, it is advisable to check your specific portafilter size to ensure a proper fit.
To maintain the Pesado Black/Iris Tamper, clean it regularly to prevent coffee residue build-up. The stainless steel base can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. The wooden handle should be treated with care; avoid soaking it in water and use a soft cloth to clean it. Periodically check for any wear on the tamper and replace if necessary.
Compared to other tampers, the Pesado Black/Iris Tamper stands out due to its precision machining and ergonomic design. The 90-degree edge maximises basket coverage, which is not always found in standard tampers. This feature helps reduce channelling and improves extraction consistency. While many tampers are made from plastic or lower-grade metals, the Pesado's use of high-quality materials like 316 stainless steel and POM gives it a significant durability advantage.
The Pesado Black/Iris Tamper comes with a manufacturer's warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship. For support, customers can contact the retailer from whom they purchased the tamper. It is advisable to keep your purchase receipt for warranty claims. Additionally, Pesado offers customer service to assist with any inquiries regarding their products.
