Model B Espresso Tamp for Breville

The Upgrade Your Breville Deserves

Breville machines provide a fantastic gateway into the world of espresso, but their potential is often limited by the included accessories. The stock tamp, in particular, leaves a small but critical gap around the edge of the coffee bed - a primary cause of uneven extraction and channeling. We endorse the Model B tamp because it is the single most impactful upgrade a Breville owner can make. It is a handcrafted tool, specifically designed to solve this problem and allow you to pull consistently delicious shots that honor the quality of the coffee you are brewing.

Precision Where It Matters Most: The 53.3mm Base

The secret to this tamp's effectiveness is its precise engineering. The 53.3mm diameter is not an arbitrary size; it is the exact dimension required to fit Breville's 54mm portafilter baskets perfectly from edge to edge. This perfect fit ensures the entire surface of the coffee is compressed with uniform density, forcing water to flow evenly through the puck. The result is a more balanced extraction that minimizes the sourness associated with channeling. Furthermore, the base features a perfectly sharp edge, which helps prevent suction and grounds disturbance when you remove the tamp.

Handcrafted for a Superior Feel

This tool is a pleasure to use. The first thing you will notice is the satisfying weight - at 3.7 ounces, it has the heft and balance needed for a level tamp without requiring excessive pressure. The handle, constructed from alternating layers of beautiful American hardwood, is both durable and comfortable in the hand. As a thoughtful and practical detail, a magnetic insert allows the Model B to be stored conveniently in the Breville machine's default tamp holder. It is a tool that not only elevates your espresso but also the entire ritual of making it.
