Our Signature handle made Reg famous. The choice of many world barista champions and countless competitors, its ergonomic design fits perfectly in your hand. This helps you find just the right tamping pressure to produce a level, evenly distributed coffee bed.
Western "Big Leaf" Maple is a hardwood species native to the pacific northwest. Less dense than it's Eastern "Hard" Maple cousin, this tamper is lighter but has a beautiful, soft color palette that can range from a pale to warm, honey color.
All our wood handles are artisan-crafted by Reg himself, and finished by hand using Reg's proprietary mixture of food-safe natural finishes. They develop a soft, satin patina with use.
Note:
Please note that this listing is for a handle only. Handles and bases must be specified individually to create a complete tamper. We'll assemble it for you before shipping.
