Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What portafilter size does the Tough Tamper 58.5mm fit?
A: The Tough Tamper is designed for standard 58mm portafilters. The 58.5mm base diameter provides a precise, snug fit that maximizes edge-to-edge puck compression, commonly used with machines from brands like Breville, La Marzocco, ECM, and many others.
