Winner of Coffee Geek’s 2006 Editor Choice Award for the Best Training Tool category, the Espro Calibrated Tamper features world class construction. This unique tamper automatically clicks when 30 pounds of force has been exerted onto it, alerting you when you have reached the proper amount of tamp pressure for espresso extraction. These tampers have flat, stainless-steel bases and are available in 53 as well as 58mm sizes.
Like so many have said, consistent tamp is critical to great espresso, and the calibrated tamper is most arguably the most effective way to deliver such consistency. You really can't get it wrong, a simple tool that is worth its weight in gold in the pursuit of great espresso and coffee bliss....

Really want to try this Espro, just haven't convinced myself yet on the price. Can anyone share their experience with this tamper?

mjackson ♦ Ralph,
I love this tamper. I think of it as a tool for a science experiment. It makes sure you tamp the same way every time. It will help you in your consistency and will let you control one more factor. I have used them and wish we had them in the cafes I ran as it was amazing how differently everyone tamped. This really helps and I think you will love it.
