KNODOS Echo 58.5mm Espresso Tamper for VST & IMS Baskets – Calibrated 30lb Click, Self-Leveling Precision Maple

The KNODOS Echo is a calibrated, spring-loaded 58.5mm espresso tamper with audible click feedback and a light maple handle, machined for VST and IMS precision baskets. Press until it clicks, lift, and pull your shot — the same firm, even tamp every time, with no force gauge and no guesswork. A precision flat stainless base, a dual spring system (30lb fitted + 20lb spare), and a solid maple grip.

Made for 58.5mm Precision Baskets

This 58.5mm tamper drops into VST baskets, IMS Competition baskets and specialty OEM 58.5mm portafilter baskets. It is not for standard 58mm OEM baskets, where it seats too tight — for those, choose the 58mm Echo with its 58.3mm base.

One Click, One Pressure

A 30lb calibrated spring sets the force and clicks the instant you reach it, so every tamp from this calibrated tamper 58.5mm lands identical — no gauge to read, no over-tamping, and no long learning curve.

Levels Itself

As a self-leveling tamper, the flat, balanced face settles square against the basket on its own, packing the bed uniformly to cut channeling and lift the crema higher.

Two Springs, Your Pressure

The 30lb spring comes fitted and a 20lb spare rides in the box for lighter or more delicate roasts. The change is hand-tight in under a minute — no driver, no fuss — and the click stays crisp at both settings.

Light Fine-Grain Maple Handle

A solid maple grip — hand-finished and smooth, with a pale, creamy tone and a tight, even grain that stays hard in the hand — pairs with a polished stainless base. Warm in the palm and bright on the counter.
