MHW-3Bomber Silicone Bar Pad Tamping Mat 235 x 145mm | Flat, Black

MHW-3Bomber Silicone Bar Pad Tamping Mat

Lay this silicone tamping mat on your counter as a fixed place to tamp. Your portafilter stays where you put it and does not slide away while you tamp. The silicone also protects both your counter and your portafilter from scratches and damage.

This is the flat version, with no cut-outs or holes: a level mat of 235 x 145mm. It gives you room to set down your portafilter and rest your tamper or distribution tool. The mat is food-grade silicone and weighs around 310 grams. After use, a quick rinse under the tap is all it needs.

A good base sounds like a detail, but tamp on a slippery or hard counter and you notice it quickly: the portafilter shifts and you press at an angle. With a steady, level place to tamp, you keep your tamp straight and your puck even, and that is the basis for an even extraction.
