The Cafelat corner tamping mat is our unique and innovative solution for those baristas who like to tamp with the portafilter on the edge of the table. This is an idea Paul had a few years ago, but it took our designer Karina to really transform what could have been an ordinary-looking product into something that is cute and incredibly functional. The compact size is great for even the smallest barista workstations and the part that overhangs are small enough not to obscure doors or drawers that may be underneath.

When using the mat it is important to modify your technique to avoid any chance of injury, should the portafilter slip for any reason. When holding the portafilter up against the corner tamping mat, push the portafilter towards the counter away from you. With the tamper in your other hand tamp downwards as you normally would do. This technique ensures the portafilter remains fixed.
