MOTTA Tamper flat "NONSTICK black" 58 mm – Stainless steel flat base, made in Italy
Matte black, no distracting shine – and a non-stick base from which coffee grounds release particularly cleanly. Simple and functional.
The "NONSTICK" flat tamper in black with a non-stick stainless steel base.
What makes this tamper special
The flat stainless steel base presses the coffee grounds evenly, so that the water flows through the puck consistently instead of finding a quick path. The high rim of about two centimeters sits centered on the 58mm portafilter without slipping when pressing, and the handle can be unscrewed for cleaning. The tamper is made in Italy – Metallurgica Motta has been building such tools since 1967.
Even compression is the basis for consistent extraction – and that in turn for a drink that tastes good. What look you hold in your hand is a matter of taste: the function is the same for all variants, you choose the design. Nobody needs a specific pattern – one wants it. Our opinion is one of many.

Frequently asked questions
What portafilter size does the tamper fit?
For 58mm portafilters. The high rim sits centered and does not slip when pressing.
What are the benefits of the non-stick base?
Moist coffee grounds release more easily from the coated base, keeping the tamper cleaner. The handle can be unscrewed for cleaning.
Flat or convex – what's the difference?
A flat base tamps the grounds evenly, a convex base tamps them more towards the center. There is no right or wrong – many prefer the flat base for even compression. Ultimately, what matters is that the cup tastes good.
Can I see the tamper in person before buying?
Yes, absolutely. You can experience it live in our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b). Online, we deliver within 2–4 business days, throughout Switzerland and to Liechtenstein.
Tip from our coffee roastery
A well-tamped puck deserves full-bodied beans. Our Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight offer chocolate and nut notes. For maximum body without acidity, try Very Nutty, for a fruity experience, Wild Peach. This is our recommendation – one of many.
