This is a heavy tamper, certainly well made. If you had disposable income and want to make sure you are at 30 pounds, go for it. Otherwise just use a regular tamper and be consistent.
Its constant force eliminates one variable from the equation (time, temperature, pressure, etc.) of making espresso.
tamp pressure when preparing shots. I was definitely tamping too light prior to using this tool. For me, a good comparison would be the use of a torque wrench for securing a fastener in a critical use situation. Basically, a no
brainer. If you are using quality coffee in a good machine, all you have to do is dial in the grind size to reach a goal of a 2oz shot in 25 seconds. I use 18g of Lavazza Super Crema in my double shot portafilter. Be sure to level the coffee and
apply the 30# tamp. No more guessing! My results are absolutely fantastic! (Profitec Pro 500 PID)
I'm keeping my old tamper as a back-up only since I now have absolute confidence this tools works effectively.
Note: I would rate this 4.5 stars...docking .5 for the price tag. That said, who knows what it's worth? I already love it!
However, if you're like me and relatively new to home espresso, then this tamper is your best friend. I love espresso and jumped in blindly when I "impulse" bought an expensive machine and grinder, thinking after a few months of practice, I would be able to make a great latte. Well that wasn't quite the case so I took a class on making espresso (which I recommend to everyone) and they emphasized the importance to dialing in the grinder and packing the grinds evenly. However, my uncalibrated arm just wasn't up to the task of packing the grounds at 30lbs each time, making dialing in the grinder very difficult as well. This tamper takes the packing part out of the equation and makes it much easier to evaluate whether your grounds are ground too fine or coarse, saving time and headache and making the whole experience of trying new beans or playing with the other variables (like temperature, pressure, pre-infusion time, etc) that much more pleasurable.

The tamper itself is weighted nicely, a huge upgrade from the light weight Breville tamper.
The weighted pressure of 30 pounds doesn't really matter much, but it's the fact that it allows me to tamp consistently with the same pressure to make it easier for me to control the variables.
The cost is expensive, but is easily justified when you have a high quality home espresso machine.
