Bialetti Kitty Nera 2 cup Tamp

thingiverse

It's claimed that you shouldn't tamp the Bialetti, but personally I've discovered with the Kitty Nera that a light tamp can produce significantly better coffee with crema. This particular coffee tamper is designed for the Bialetti Kitty Nera two-cup model. It may also fit other two-cup models such as the Moka. The tamper measures 42.8 millimeters in diameter, allowing you to confirm its suitability with your basket. Printed with four perimeters for added strength, I divided the printing process into two phases (S3D) and used five millimeters of eighty percent grid infill on the base to give it a substantial weighty foundation. Above that, only fifteen percent grid infill is necessary as the perimeters already provide most of the rigidity. In all honesty, fifteen percent throughout would also be perfectly acceptable.
