The flat stainless steel base ensures a homogeneous pressure distribution across the entire puck surface \u2013 the foundation of a balanced espresso extraction without channeling.<\/p>\n<p>Ergonomic handle, optimal weight, premium stainless steel base: the Flat Pro unites function and design at the highest level.

A clean, level compaction is crucial so that the brew water flows evenly through the coffee puck and the full range of aromas is extracted.<\/p>\n<p>The quality of the tamper determines the repeatability of your results: material, weight, base diameter, and shape determine how consistently you can pull espresso shot after espresso shot.<\/p>\n<h2>Highlights of the Bohnito Flat Pro<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Flat stainless steel base<\/strong> for even pressure distribution and maximum contact with the puck<\/li>\n<li><strong>High weight<\/strong> for controlled tamping without effort<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optimal balance<\/strong> for clean, level seating<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ergonomic handle<\/strong> in an elegant Onyx Black finish<\/li>\n<li><strong>Designed in Germany<\/strong> \u2013 precision manufacturing to high quality standards<\/li>\n<li><strong>Also available in Graphite Grey &amp; Arctic Silver<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Who is the Flat Pro Tamper made for?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Home baristas who demand consistency<\/strong> \u2013 anyone who wants repeatable espresso results at home<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ambitious baristas &amp; brew bars<\/strong> \u2013 for demanding specialty coffees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Caf\u00e9s with high daily throughput<\/strong> \u2013 durable and ergonomic in continuous use<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Tamping step by step<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Dose the coffee grounds into the portafilter and distribute them evenly with the <a href=\"\/product\/bohnito-spin-pro-wdt-black\/\">WDT tool<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Place the tamper vertically \u2013 the base rests flush across the entire surface of the coffee grounds<\/li>\n<li>Compact with even pressure (~15\u201320 kg) \u2013 making sure the movement goes straight down<\/li>\n<li>Lift the tamper and insert the portafilter<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about the espresso tamper<\/h2>\n<h3>Which tamper is best?<\/h3>\n<p>The best tamper is the one whose base diameter matches your portafilter basket exactly and that is precisely manufactured. What matters: material quality (stainless steel rather than aluminum for the base), an ergonomic handle, optimal weight, and a flat or slightly convex base. The Bohnito Flat Pro meets all of these criteria.<\/p>\n<h3>How hard should you tamp?<\/h3>\n<p>The ideal pressure is around 15\u201320 kg \u2013 it has been shown that the specific pressure matters less than <em>consistency<\/em>. More important than force: seat the tamper level, compact cleanly, and work repeatably. A well-weighted tamper like the Flat Pro helps you reach the same pressure every time.<\/p>\n<h3>What tamper size do I need?<\/h3>\n<p>The tamper diameter must match the portafilter basket. Common sizes are 51 mm (single-boiler machines), 53 mm, and 58 mm (the standard for professional and high-end portafilters). When in doubt: measure the inner diameter of your basket and choose a tamper about 0.2 mm smaller.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I tamp correctly?<\/h3>\n<p>Place the tamper vertically and compact downward with even pressure, without tilting. Before tamping, fluff the coffee grounds with a <a href=\"\/product\/bohnito-spin-pro-wdt-black\/\">WDT tool<\/a> to break up clumps. Then insert the portafilter immediately and brew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bohnito Flat Pro Tamper Black is a professional precision tamper for even compaction and stable espresso extraction.<br \/>\nThe flat stainless steel base combined with optimal balance enables controlled, level tamping \u2013 repeatable and reliable in daily use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1018,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[42],"product_cat":[59,63,67],"product_tag":[69,70],"class_list":["post-1086","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-bohnito","product_cat-espresso","product_cat-espresso-tools","product_cat-tamping-systems","product_tag-barista-equipment","product_tag-barista-station","first","instock","downloadable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/1086","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1086"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1018"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1086"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=1086"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=1086"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bohnito-coffee.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=1086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
