This tamper is specifically designed for use with La Pavoni espresso coffee machines and grinders, where a 49 mm portafilter is required. Its primary function is to create an even and consistent compression of the coffee grounds in the portafilter. A properly compressed coffee puck is essential for optimal water flow during the brewing process, which contributes to a more balanced and complete espresso experience. This espresso accessory supports precision in brewing and is a functional La Pavoni accessory for enthusiasts who want to optimise their home brewing.
