This solid silicone tamping pad is 3mm thick and protects your work surface from unwanted damage caused by the portafilter. The outer edge is 6mm thick, so the coffee grounds do not slip off the mat and your worktop stays clean. There is a round recess in one corner for your tamper. The silicone is food safe.
The tamping mat protects your table from the sharp spouts of your portafilter. It protects the edge of the table, which is often used by baristas for tamping. The tamper mat also protects the table from the hard tamper. It is, so to speak, a cushioning work surface and serves as a gentle buffer for barista fans.
As the first seller to offer a silicone tamper mat in Germany, [JoeFrex] has been proving the durability of its barista mats for almost 10 years now, both in private households and in the catering industry. We have always had many coffee enthusiasts/baristas or cafés who use our non-slip tamping mat on a daily basis and consider it an integral part of their "barista equipment".
The barista mat is easily washable under the tap, which means dirt can be removed in less than 1 minute and you don't have to worry about dirty work surfaces. The Espresso Mat ensures a tidy, tidy & professional “look”.
The tamper mat has been very popular for many years because the non-slip silicone maintains a grip on any surface and thus ensures intensive and precise work. Thanks to its simple and classic design, the Barista Mat visually fits into any kitchen style and is therefore a real eye-catcher next to your Italian espresso machine.
This tamping mat is indispensable for many of our customers, both in the private sector and in the catering sector, as it is a solution that ensures quick and effective work in their barista corner. It is a cost-effective alternative to our tamping stations that allows baristas in cafés to compress the ground coffee in the portafilter so that the table does not get damaged by the hard portafilter. The compressed coffee grounds can then be put into the espresso dispenser and you can move on to the next step in the espresso workflow without any problems. Our goal was to create a product that effectively supports you in your coffee preparation, so that with a simple barista tool, you can achieve uncomplicated coffee results like the barista professionals and don't have to worry about messing with the table or portafilter.
The integrated tamper stand, which is embedded in the non-slip silicone, was designed so that your tamper has a permanent place in your barista corner and you have a tidy and tidy workplace in order to be able to achieve even better results when preparing espresso in the future.
