* Espresso Coffee Tamper
* Solid FDA 304 18-8 food grade stainless steel
* 49 mm diameter (small camper styles)
* 51 mm diameter (home machines)
* 53 mm diameter (home machines)
* 57 mm diameter (commercial machines)
These tampers weigh 10.5 oz. so with handle, it could be almost a lb., recommended for efficient tamping. The 49 mm, 51 mm and 53 mm will fit all home espresso machines while the 57mm is for commercial or larger espresso machines. The tamper comes with a 1″ set screw that is 3/8″ x 16 tpi. so you can use any of my mandrels to turn the handle as you would a bottle stopper or bottle opener. The bevel on the top of all the coffee tampers is 1 1/4″ diameter.
*note: if you do craft shows, buy 6 or 8 set screws, attach them to finished handles and get 2 or 3 tampers and let the customers choose their own handle. This saves you money, makes the customer feel they are getting a “custom” item. Here is a card you can use with your tampers: Espresso.Tamper
**note: the handles shown are not included, they are just to show examples of handles you can make. Michael Armstrong made the 3 resin tampers. John Dreese makes his using beautiful stones.

Very nice and exact size as described. I really wanted to gift my son this handmade tamper. I received several items and I was impressed with the quality.
Green Water Craftsman –
Exceptional quality. These have a nice weight to them, and and the fit is perfect.

I purchased the 57mm tamper to make a gift for my nephew. This was the perfect fit for the basket of his machine. He loves the weight of the tamper, as well as its looks. Once again – quality products from Ruth Niles enable me to make quality items to sell and give as gifts. I highly recommend this product.

The 49mm was the exact match for our DeLonghi – COM532M. The machining/polishing was superb. The heft and polish make it feel like a truly professional tool. I combined it with a bright Inlace Acrylester handle and everybody wants to hold and use it. A former barista has said that it was better than the one he used.
Note: measure carefully, the baskets are slanted and the tamper will not reach the bottom.
Jesse Horn, OK –
It was perfect and worked out great. Thank you for an amazing product.
Jim Hendry –
Smallest tamper is too large for my basket. Well made and enjoyed making the handle but disappointing when it won’t fit. Just a mm too big!
Ken Sandahl –

I am very happy with the quality of the pieces I am getting.
Hope you consider making a smaller espresso tamper even though there are so many sizes.

I’ve bought a range of the stoppers bases and the tamper. I think all are first rate and superior to the normal imported ones that one typically, finds.
I’m thrilled to be able to support small business and indeed, one not very far away.

I personally think you have maintained the best quality kits of everyone in your field. I think most of the other kit manufactures only care only about maximum profit. I feel you take pride in making QUALITY products and quality counts in my book.
