How to Tamp – 5 Step Guide

Step 1 – Distribute the Coffee:

Tapping the portafilter on the grinder forks or with the palm of the hand, to create a more level spread of coffee

Step 2 – Position the Portafilter

Rest the portafilter on a steady surface whilst holding the handle

Step 3 – Hold the Tamper

Hold the tamper in your hand like a door handle, with the end of the handle in your palm and your fingers wrapped around the top of the base. Make sure the base of the tamper is dry; if it is wet, dry coffee will stick to it, creating a gap in the compressed coffee.

Step 4 – Press & Twist

Place the base of the tamper onto the ground coffee, keeping it level with the basket edge- you can feel this with the edge of your fingers, and apply firm pressure. Give the tamper a short twist, this will reduce the amount of loose grounds after tamping.
