This station is designed to accommodate 51mm, 54mm, and 58mm portafilters (approx. 2 in, 2.1 in, and 2.3 in), which covers the vast majority of home and prosumer espresso machines. Simply select the size that matches your portafilter when ordering. The ergonomic cradle holds each size securely so you can focus on applying even, consistent pressure every time.

You can choose from Sapele Wood (rich reddish-brown tone), Vertical Sapele (same species with a striking vertical grain pattern), Walnut/Beech (a beautiful two-tone combination), or Beech Wood (a lighter, classic finish). All four options are dense hardwoods that resist moisture and daily wear, so the choice really comes down to which grain and color best matches your coffee bar aesthetic.

Absolutely. Each station is crafted from solid hardwood, not veneered particleboard or cheap composites. Sapele, walnut, and beech are all known for their density and moisture resistance, which makes them ideal for a space that regularly encounters coffee grounds and minor spills. With basic care, like wiping it down after use, this station will hold up beautifully through years of daily pulling.

The slide-out drawer is sized perfectly for the small accessories that tend to clutter a coffee bar. Most home baristas use it to stash their WDT tool, dosing funnel, extra filter baskets, or cleaning brushes. It keeps everything organized and within arm's reach during your workflow, so you're never hunting for tools mid-shot. Think of it as a compact command center for your puck prep essentials.

Caring for your tamping station is simple. After each session, wipe it down with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove any coffee residue. Avoid soaking the wood or using harsh chemical cleaners. Every few months, you can apply a thin coat of food-safe mineral oil or wood wax to nourish the grain and maintain that rich, natural luster. Store it away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Absolutely. Every espresso machine, grinder, and accessory is packed with the same precision we put into designing them. We use reinforced boxes and protective cushioning specifically tested for coffee equipment—because a damaged tamper or chipped machine housing isn't acceptable.

In the rare event your portafilter, grinder, or machine arrives damaged, our support team will sort it immediately with a replacement or full refund. No runaround.
