MHW-3BOMBER Tampermatte – non-slip silicone surface for tamping
The portafilter sits securely, nothing slips, and while you tamp the grounds, the spout looks freely out over the edge. Splashes and crumbs stay on the soft surface, and at the end you just wipe them away. A small mat that keeps the tamping moment calm and clean.
A hard-wearing silicone mat as a firm, gentle spot for every tamp.
What makes a good tamping mat
When you tamp, you press down with weight – and that's where a surface that doesn't slip and absorbs the pressure helps. The silicone mat gives the portafilter a stable footing, protects the counter from pressure marks and the spout from scratches. At the same time, it catches loose grounds that fall during distribution and tamping.
The soft, grippy silicone rinses off or wipes clean quickly after your shot – an unassuming piece that keeps your espresso corner tidier. Our opinion is one of many.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need a tamping mat for?
It gives the portafilter a non-slip, stable footing while tamping, protects the counter and spout, and catches loose grounds. That makes the motion calmer and cleaner.
How do I clean the mat?
Just rinse it or wipe it with a cloth. The silicone is low-maintenance and dries quickly.
Does the mat fit any portafilter?
Yes. The mat is independent of basket size – it serves as a surface where you set down the portafilter and tamp.
Can I see the mat in person before buying?
Very much so. In our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zürich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) you can experience it live. Online, we deliver in 2–4 business days, across Switzerland and to Liechtenstein.
Tip from our roastery
A clean, calm tamp really pays off with rich-bodied, sweet roasts. Our Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight taste round and forgive a lot. For maximum body without any acidity, the Very Nutty, for a fruity experience, the Wild Peach. That's our recommendation – one of many.
