Puqpress M5 – modular automatic tamper for large grinders
Insert the portafilter, wait about a second, move on to the machine: the Puqpress M5 compresses the coffee bed automatically and evenly. As a module, it sits directly beneath the grinder and keeps grinding and tamping together as a compact unit.
The M5 is designed to sit beneath the Mahlkönig E80S. With the optional M5-Bracket, the module can also be used for other grinders of similar size. An evenly tamped puck helps every extraction – our opinion is one of many.
