Four tools in one diameter
This IKAPE tamper and distributor kit brings the four puck-prep tools together in one size: a funnel to grind into, a distributor to level with, a tamper to compress with and a mat to work on. The tamper is the V4 calibrated palm tamper; IKAPE's other four-part set is built around the V3 tamper.
What is in the set
- V4 calibrated palm tamper: spring-loaded calibration inside the body and a scale on the outside. IKAPE states that every puck is compressed with the same pressure.
- V1 gravity distributor: it uses gravity to adapt to the height of the coffee, so you do not set it by hand for each dose. You rotate it to level the bed.
- V3 magnetic dosing funnel: a non-embedded funnel that holds to the basket magnetically and leaves more room in the basket. IKAPE states that it prevents grounds from spilling while you grind and stir.
- Silicone tamping mat: food-grade silicone and non-slip. IKAPE states that it protects the portafilter and the worktop from scratches and knocks, and gives the tools a place to stand.
Choose the right size
- De'Longhi Dedica (EC685 / EC885) and other compact 51 mm machines.51 mm
- Sage / Breville machines with 54 mm baskets, including Barista Express, Barista Pro, Barista Touch and Bambino Plus.53.3 mm
- 58.35 mm: standard 58 mm baskets on E61 group machines, Gaggia Classic, Rancilio Silvia, Lelit, ECM, Profitec and La Marzocco.
How to use it
- Put the mat down and stand the portafilter on it.
- Snap the funnel onto the basket, grind the dose into it and stir if you use a WDT tool.
- Take the funnel off and rest the distributor on the rim, turning it until the bed is flat.
- Tamp straight down until the spring releases, then lift the tamper off without twisting.
Materials and care
IKAPE names food-grade silicone for the mat. The tools come in black or silver.
Wash the mat in warm water and dry it flat. Wipe the metal tools with a damp cloth and do not soak them, because the tamper holds a spring inside its body. Brush the funnel out while the grounds are dry, and keep all four tools dry between sessions.
