MHW Flash Constant Pressure Tamper 51mm Walnut/Black Titanium Plated - Threaded / Rippled base
The MHW Flash Constant Pressure Tamper 2.0 (51mm, Walnut/Black Titanium Plated and Rippled base) offers stable, consistent tamping force with a beautiful finish and smart spring-loaded internals. It's engineered for accuracy, comfort, and long-term durability.
Consistent Pressure, Elegant Design
This tamper ensures a repeatable 30lb tamp with every press, thanks to its patented three-spring system. The titanium-plated SUS304 base resists corrosion and wear while delivering a luxurious matte finish. It’s designed to maintain consistent extraction quality — especially ideal for those focused on espresso repeatability and control.
How It Works
- Step 1: Place the tamper on the coffee bed inside the portafilter.
- Step 2: Press down gently until you hear a sound cue — this indicates the pressure has been reached.
- Step 3: The tamper automatically resets thanks to the rebound mechanism. No manual adjustment is needed.
- Step 4: Brew your espresso with confidence, knowing you’ve tamped with consistent force.
