Description

iKape V3 Calibrated Coffee Tamper 51mm: Black

The iKape V3 Calibrated Coffee Tamper 51mm, Black, helps you press a level puck with steady pressure. Great for home baristas chasing reliable extractions. Learn how it works below, then add it to your cart when ready.

Stop channeling, start consistent shots

Uneven density and clumps can send water down the path of least resistance. That means thin shots and messy pucks. The IKAPE V3 applies even pressure to compress grounds into a uniform coffee puck so water flows through evenly.

The calibrated main spring is set to 30 pounds, while a second spring keeps the tamper balanced. In daily use this means steady pressing, fewer variables, and a calmer workflow.

Place your filled 51mm basket on a flat surface. Set the tamper on the grounds and press straight down until the spring stops. The dual spring system delivers about 30 pounds every time. Lift, check the level surface, lock in, and pull your shot.
