The Story

Good extraction requires good tamping, and it doesn’t take many tamping mistakes to ruin an extraction. What we’ve realized is that there is no perfect solution out there for the simple act of tamping, a solution that is simple, reliable, error-proof and hopefully fun too.

Frustrated and motivated, we went on to design the HAPPY TAMPER.

The Experience

HAPPY TAMPER offers unmatched design, functionality and user experience.

With HAPPY TAMPER, you can expect peace of mind, comfort and result.

 

The Design

HAPPY TAMPER combines precision alignment and force calibration in a compact design.

Guided descend with filter top rim as datum reference.

HAPPY TAMPER allows baristas to adjust the tamping force, not the tamping depth. Tamping force is generated by the compression of the inner spring. Simply press all the way for consistent tamping force.

Premium material and finishing.

 

The Science

Espresso experts agree that consistent tamping force is the key to consistent extraction. Indeed, our experiments have confirmed that, with all other factors being equal, a variation in tamping force alone can change puck thickness, density and surface roughness.

The measurement below shows that tamping force control of HAPPY TAMPER is at least 5 times more robust compared to that of other high-end palm tampers. This means HAPPY TAMPER can tolerate 5 times as much variation in other factors and still delivers similar tamping force. 

For perspective, given a typical puck thickness of 1cm, an allowed variation of 0.01cm means other factors such as dose and distribution need to be controlled to within 1% accuracy in order to result in a consistent tamping force!

The Showdown

See why HAPPY TAMPER is the last tamper you’ll ever need.

The Pledge

We’ve designed the HAPPY TAMPER to be the last tamper any barista will ever need. Likewise, we believe there is value to be offered to any barista. 

After many rounds of prototyping and trial runs, we have successfully released our design and identified suitable production sources. Your support will help us take things to the next level.

We designed the HAPPY TAMPER with the intention to empower everyday baristas. Thank you for giving us an opportunity to do so. We look forward to serving you soon.
