Frequently asked questions
What are the two rings on the tamping mat for?
They centre frequently used tools such as a tamper or Blind Shaker, so they have a fixed place and you can set them down without looking.
How big is the Weber Leather Tamping Mat?
245 mm wide, 180 mm deep and 4 mm thick.
Which colours are available?
Brown and black. Weber Workshops calls the colours Natural and Onyx.
How do I care for the leather mat?
Weber Workshops gives no care instructions on its product page. Coffee grounds and crumbs can be wiped off dry.
Can I see the product before buying?
Our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) display a large selection, but not every product is on site at all times. Write to us in advance at [email protected].
Tip from the roastery: A firm surface helps you tamp straight down from above. For espresso we recommend Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, both dense, round and chocolatey. If you want maximum body, choose Very Nutty. And if you'd like to discover something fruity, you'll find it in Wild Peach. That's our recommendation, one of many.
