„Available from Newco Coffee and vendors. The Reg Barber Espresso Tamper: When you are ready to put your plastic toys away, it is time to bring out the RB Tamper. There is only one RB, it is handmade and there are no substitutes. Now do not cry to me that it is 40$ or so!“

„Having used the Reg Barber tamper for what seems like years, it was a bit of a surprise to go back to a fresh perspective. The Dezco spring loaded tamper is a one of a kind item. Perhaps not for everyone, it was certainly worth a good look. “

„My own hardware consists of: a Pasquini Livia 90, Pasquini Moka 90 grinder, a digital scale with a tare function, a bathroom scale, three Reg Barber stainless steel tampers, a 3X basket from Pasquini, and an extra portafilter with a blind filter to backflush between shots. My espresso blend of choice is Josuma's Malabar Gold.“

„Coming out of nowhere, the Presso Tamper out of Sweden has virtually tied the long standing and time tested Reg Barber Tamper , with scores of 1.7 for the Reg, and 1.75 for the Presso. What's especially notable about this is that the designers of the Presso claim to have not physically tested and examined other tampers when designing this model, and when you see a Presso model, you can see a lot of subtle originality in the design. The only minor complaint about this tamper is that it needs more weight. I think if it had that extra weight, it would have vaulted into first place overall.“

„You cant go wrong with one from Reg Barber, jut do a google search on his name and tampers and you should hit his site. There are different handle shapes and sizes so you should find it easy to find a good one. but you'll need to measure the inside of you PF, probably a good idea to use a vernier gauge to get a good accurate reading.“

„The shape of the pellet has already been formed, and the finishing tamp confirms this impression. With the tamper held as before, press on the pellet with exactly thirty pounds of pressure. It is useful to tamp on a bathroom scale until you become comfortable with the amount of force necessary to achieve the appropriate pressure. After tamping turn the tamper 720° to polish the surface.“
