Compressore White Espresso Tamper FAQs
Q: What makes kino wood special?
A: Kino wood is known for its durability, rich red hue, and fine texture, making it an elegant and practical choice for a daily-use tamper.
Q: What's the difference between flat and convex bases?
A: A flat base gives even pressure across the entire puck, while a convex base slightly compresses the edges inward, which some baristas prefer for reducing channeling. It comes down to personal preference and your espresso setup.
Q: Will my handle look exactly like the photos?
A: Not exactly—each kino wood handle has its own natural grain and color variations, so every tamper is one of a kind.
Q: Is this tamper suitable for commercial environments?
A: Absolutely. The Compressore is built to meet professional standards, whether you're in a busy café or home bar.
Q: Is the wood sustainably harvested?
A: Yes—all of our wood is FSC-certified, meaning it comes from forests managed for long-term environmental and social benefit.
