Normcore Tamperbase Waffle 58.5 mm
A new base, a new feeling. You screw the waffle base onto your spring-loaded Normcore tamper, press – and the base imprints a fine waffle pattern into the puck, which creates a more even path for the water.
An interchangeable waffle pattern tamper base, suitable for the V4 series spring-loaded Normcore tamper.
What makes the waffle base special
Instead of a flat surface, the waffle base imprints a subtle 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 waffle, ripple, or flat base is a matter of taste, and this is just our view, one of many.

Roastery Tip
A structured base helps guide the water more calmly through the bed. For dense, sweet espresso, we like to reach for 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.
