„Dose ground espresso into the portafilter until the coffee is level with the top level of the portafilter basket. With your left hand (if you are right handed), hold the tamper down steady. With a tamper in your right hand, pack the coffee down into the portafilter with all your strength. I use a technique called NSEW when packing espresso.“

„Consider them an essential, crucial even, part of the whole ritual of making espresso. I had a favourite - it was the Presso Tamper from Xpressivo ... but they no longer make the old style tamper - they've modified it, and while many prefer the new model, I liked the old model better. I liked it so much that recently, I brought it to Seattle and when I accidentally left it there, I was in near hysterics!“

„If its rim is damaged, it will not create a firm coffee surface pack or tamp. The divots will allow water to penetrate the espresso grounds faster than the coffee in the filter basket that is evenly and firmly tamped. Yes, it is true, you can have an overextracted and underextracted espresso from the same portafilter. A good tamper should be durable, it should fit comfortably in the palm of the hand and it should perfectly fit the diameter of the portafilter.“
