About the manufacturer
Metallurgica Motta has been manufacturing kitchen equipment and professional products in stainless steel since 1967. Their combination of high quality, reliable function, and clear Italian design has made the brand appreciated in bars and cafés worldwide. We think this is clearly evident here: the tool feels solid in the hand and is made for daily use.
One thing to keep in mind is that this is a distribution tool, not a replacement for tamping. For best results, it should be used as a step before tamping, especially if you want an even puck and more stable extraction.
