Pullman Breville 54mm Tamp Base We've made it simpler for you to choose your tamper. For more handle options please order your Breville BigStep base and Handle separately. Breville machines give a great extraction but why not step up your parameters with a bigger base to cover more of the coffee bed? The Pullman Breville BigStep base has been designed to tamp the maximum amount of coffee without jamming or creating a vacuum using the standard Breville double single walled filter basket. The benefit is reduced channelling. (Which can be seen using our NAKED Portafilter) It has also been designed to be lighter in weight than the Barista model and also thinner. If you have no experience with dosing and dialling in your coffee, using the thinner base of the BigStep can help you with this.Coffee needs space (headroom) to expand with the addition of water. A quick guide is the amount of coffee in the filter basket is to measure the distance between the bed of compressed coffee to the top of the filter basket. This should be as close as possible to the thickness of the tamper. The BigStep at full tamping depth should be at the top of the basket. You might need to adjust your grinder to get this number dialed in to your taste and recipe preference.Example:If the top of the tamper goes below the top of the filter basket then add more coffee, if the top of the tamper is higher than the top of the filter basket then remove some coffee. All you need to do is unpack and you are tamper ready! With the Patented BigStep base, your Breville machine will deliver even more flavour as it's time to take your coffee to the next level. With the perfect balance you see with every Pullman Barista tamper, you'll get a lifetime of service and great extractions from this tool of the trade. Comes complete with 3 spacers to give you the perfect height and comfortable grip.
