These are the Two Best Tamper Under $50

[@brodybarnes1969]

You are right Hoon. I have them both and use them daily. My daughter wanted the MH3W to use for her machine. Thank you for letting us all know.

[@xxcrankflipxx716]

Great video! I would love to see normcore roll out thicker precision bases that can be bought alone to go on existing handles. I really don't see why the base can't be thick on a self leveler, it would make the push down just a hair easier and if precise then there should be a really clean basket wall too. Upgrade when you want without creating more waste could be a nice model for them to work from. Also giving the option to start affordable but swap specific parts later to upgrade if wanted.

I have a Normcore tamper and hope to know how it goes in next day or 2. Just got my Lagato Espresso Machine today from Espresso Outlet... Will unbox and try it tomorrow.😁😀😊

I have the 54mm MHW-3Bomber. I really like it, but it did come apart after a couple months. I was able to fix it, but I hold my breath every time I use it now.

[@wesley290]

Just bought myself a Normcore with a smooth base. Liked that it comes with 3 different strength springs, though I do like the Mhw-3bomber's clicking sound. Happy so far. Also got a mhw-3bomber puck screen, so spreading the love amongst these two brands.

[@Timokvei]

I've got this MHW tamper. Fits nice and tight in breville basket but loose in IMS Big Bang basket. Same woble as original BBE tamper in BBE basket.

Got a normcore high flow precision filter basket. 40 bucks compared to some of the others ie wafo / Weber / sworks / Pullman. Very happy with the results so far. Or at least I’ll say: my good shots are much better and my bad shots are much worse, haha. So I’m assuming once I’m adept at using it I’ll have consistently better coffee

[@JB12132]

Hello, can I ask, I have a Barista Pro I use a dosage of 16g in PF and that means I need the 54mm one, BUT will the Nomcore reach down that far to do what it needs to do? You use an 18g dosage and have no issues with it making contact with the coffee in the PF so before ordering wanted to check with you the Mighty Hoon. Cheers.

MHW3B also has a more rare 4 base kit option. It has a screw base adapter with 4 bases that screw on. This includes Ripple, Waffle, Flat and Convex in the kit. I had to get it on Ali.

[@BenjaminMedlock]

Do you have a link to the one you got on Ali?

[@-Vee_]

I have Normcore, love it. but I would consider IKAPE on this price range as well

[@kevinburola889]

I have the Ikape and there’s quite a bit of play in the shaft and the plate that it doesn’t tamp very level. This also causes grinding of the shaft . I can not recommend this product.

[@joaocarvalho1979]

Which IKAPE do u have? The transparent (V2) or the grey one (V3)? ​@@kevinburola889

[@darkram4]

where can I find that water mister??

[@krisweclawski140]

Hi! Can the 53.3mm Normcore v4 be used with a Sage funnel on Barista Pro? Thanks

[@orrinbelcher6593]

Very interesting, informative and fun review on tampers, nicely done

[@sjazzp]

I have the Pesado and recently I got a MHW3 Bomber, imho, the Pesado gives me better results, for some reason, I get channeling with the MH3 from time to time

[@mtpastor4546]

Once to own the right technique on traditional tamper, the traditional is a solid choice.

[@rskl3284]

I just got the mhw for £22 on their ali page cant wait for it to arrive

[@lucasmascio9405]

i seriously have no clue which to buy, i have the bomber but i was thinking abt returning it and getting the normcore walnut bc it looked a little cooler, which do yall like

[@drewdemaio4162]

I have the Bomber. Does the job and no complaints!

[@franciscodelatorre9336]

Is there one like that for La Pavoni pre M. 49.5?

[@smtandearthboundsuck8400]

I think the normcore 49.7mm works

[@smtandearthboundsuck8400]

At least it works with 49mm IMS double baskets very snugly

[@sehryn]

I want a spring loaded self levelling tamper with a textured face plate for use with Breville infuser. Is there a good but affordable 54m tamper with the features I like that you know of? Thanks

[@loughrey101]

MH3 Bomber is way better than the Normcore. It has more features and also has a titanium option. Normcore needs to catch up with a new version.

[@3rd-Wave_Rebel]

But MHW3bomber doesn’t have the 58.55mm. All of their product lineup are 58.35mm for some reason. Normcore has 58.55mm and also has the titanium coated tamper with the ripple base. I have one and it’s great! I’m waiting for my first MHW3bomber cyclone WDT.

[@sebastianklaus8006]

Is the Normcore Titanium coating going to wear off over time?

[@lucasmascio9405]

You are the reason shampoo has instructions

[@smtandearthboundsuck8400]

It's titanium lmao

[@Caxel108]

I wish mhw3 would make a flat base with titanium coating, but they only have rippled.

[@3rd-Wave_Rebel]

I got the ripple base for aesthetics. Flat base is flat out boring. Puns intended.

[@anhkietbui7166]

why do you prefer the flat one? Is it better for pressure?

[@Miciah-j1v]

Nice lelit bianca!!

[@mryoyo7741]

The spring inside normcore which one u prefer

[@vikeskie]

Barista Hustle is best value tamp hands down

[@1101naomi]

Which is better? Flat or ripple?

[@1101naomi]

And will 58.5 fit every 58mm basket?

[@3rd-Wave_Rebel]

@@1101naomiIt makes no difference but the ripple one is cooler looking than the traditional flat base.

[@mikeowen000]

Normcore FTW

[@MrMartyn1212]

Spring tamp is a spring tamp regardless of Brand and promo Can get the same thing £14 posted from china Cheers hoon

[@pantac4493]

Did you test them? I heard some don’t slide well or wobble

[@dejedejsson]

No, there is a significant difference,Bomber tamper works like a torque wrench, Normcore doesn't, it only provides a resistance, put both tampers against the table and tamp and you will understand the difference, even Hoons don't understand how Bomber works.

[@loughrey101]

They're not the same. Different springs, titanium coating, different pressure resistance etc. will give different results

[@MrMartyn1212]

A tamp tamps ,even manual one’s work very well ,point being you don’t have to pour £s in to a tamper it’s coffee hype ,but hey if anyone wants to buy a certain brand go for it my friend

[@dr7246]

Everyone is throwing a tamper tantrum
