Normcore Ribbed Tamper Base 58.5 mm
Fine grooves instead of a smooth surface. You screw the ribbed base onto your spring-loaded Normcore tamper, press – and the base leaves a slight ripple pattern in the puck, which opens up a more even path for the water.
A replaceable ribbed tamper base, suitable for the spring-loaded Normcore Tamper of the V4 series.
What makes the ribbed base special
Instead of a flat surface, the ribbed base imprints a slight texture into the coffee bed. This indentation allows for controlled water flow and more even saturation of the coffee grounds – which reduces the risk of donut extraction. The base is made of food-grade 304 stainless steel and can be swapped on the spring-loaded Normcore Tamper. Whether you prefer a ribbed, a waffle, or a flat base is a matter of taste, and that's just our view, one of many.

Roastery Tip
A textured base helps guide the water more calmly through the bed. For dense, sweet espresso, we like to use Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight. If you like it full and round without any acidity, stick with Very Nutty; for a fruity experience, Wild Peach goes into the grinder. This is our recommendation, one of many, and every bean you like is the right one.
