A Custom Espresso Tamper Design: Perfect Fit for Your Machine. To create an ideal tamper for your espresso machine's portafilter, you'll need a wooden stick that fits snugly with an inner diameter of exactly 50mm. For optimal stability and to prevent wobbling, ensure the stick has a sturdy diameter of about 20mm. This size will provide a solid foundation for your tamper, making it easier to use and less prone to slipping. You can attach the wooden stick to the tamper using strong glue or incorporate a worm drive mechanism to secure it firmly in place. The latter option provides additional stability, which is especially useful when pressing down on the coffee grounds in the filter. The accompanying photo showcases a prototype with an inner diameter of 22mm and a handle diameter of about 20.5mm. This design offers a comfortable grip while allowing for precise control over the tamper's movement.
