Why NORMCORE Spring-loaded Tamper?Level Tamping - The ingenious design of leveling plate ensures your tamping level every time by resting on top of the filter basket as you press down on ground coffee.Consistent Pressure - The amount of pressure you apply is simply controlled by a pre-calibrated spring inside the tamper itself.

Review: Game Changing Tamping - The Normcore v4 Tamper is a game-changing evolution from traditional tampers in several ways. First, it auto-levels to your filter basket. This solves the most common mistake of uneven tamping of coffee grounds. Second, it has a calibrated spring to ensure you are always applying the correct pressure. Sure, there is the Force Tamper selling for 4x the cost of this one which does it for you with a pop, but that might be overkill for a home barista who makes a few drinks a day. This tamper allows you to get similar results manually and with repeatability. Anyone who makes espresso knows how important it is to eliminate unnecessary variables on the road to great coffee. I use this tamper many times every day and cannot recommend it highly enough. **Post-Prime Day Update** Although I stand behind what I wrote above concerning the Normcore V4 Tamper, someone recommended I try a similar tamper from another desertcart company, MHW-3BOMBER. I found I preferred that tamper over the Normcore for the following reasons: 1. It is a knockoff of the Force Tamper, which means you don't have to press too hard and hear/feel a click when tamping is done. Considering the Force Tamper is $200 and the MHW-3Bomber is a fourth of that price, it's a really good deal for that functionality. 2. The Normcore Tamper has a flat base whereas the MHW-3Bomber has a beautiful rounded ridge pattern, which looks like it might help distribute the grounds a little bit. Again, it's like what is offered on the Force Tamper. Otherwise, they are very similar. Both offer self-leveling while tamping. I will keep the MHW-3Bomber tamper, because it doesn't require as much downforce as the Normcore, which can help avoid any repetitive injury while making several shots.
Review: If you are not a barista, you need this tool - So I recently made the decision to get into the hobby of home espresso and because I am a professional cook and apparently love to struggle. I decided on getting into the flair espresso ecosystem. What I love about flair is that it is extremely manual in nature. What that gives me is the ability to learn a new skill in the kitchen which I love but ultimately being so manual it gives me the most control over the end product which as a professional I find essential. Anyways, this isn't a flair review but all of this will help you understand why I feel the way I do about this tamper. So I have had the flair for a little over a month now, it's my first espresso machine ever and I have pulled roughly an entire bags worth of shots with it. In the month I have owned this, I feel like I have developed a consistent and efficient work flow, I feel like my form and understanding are to a point where I should be able to pull good shots but in reality, my shots couldn't be more inconsistent. It became very clear to me after a couple dozen shots that the only thing I'm inconsistent at is the tamp. The flair pro 2 comes with a decent tamper. It's not terrible. But it's not great either. It's kinda small and I think if you aren't already a pro at making espresso, you are going to struggle with it and I definitely do struggle with it. It didn't seem to matter what my grind setting would be, coarse or super fine, some of my shots would go through with little to no resistance and some I couldn't even get to pull at all. I found myself randomly trying different things, super hard tamps, super light tamps, wild swings on my grinder and it all felt just super random and I was just flailing in the dark. As a pro this was unacceptable for me. So I decided to address my tamping issue and get the normcore distributor and this spring tamper. The two things I struggle most with the flair tamper is getting level bed and getting a consistent tamp pressure. The distributor works great and I have written a review of that too. This tamper has solved the problem I have. Like 100% solved it and it did it instantly. I received the tamper about an hour ago and immediately pulled a shot with it. What I got was an 18g shot pulled in 25 seconds with zero channeling. I then made a small adjustment to my grinder and pulled a second shot. That 18g shot pulled in 34 seconds, no channeling and was basically perfect. I now feel like I have complete control over the flair and I couldn't be more excited. I'm already shopping for some specialty light roasts and other expensive beans as I am no longer worried about wasting a ton of beans trying to dial in shots. If you are a novice to espresso, a spring tamper is essential and normcore seems to make the most premium versions of these tools. If your story is similar to mine and you can't see consistent results, buy this now. It will instantly fix your issue.
