Is Normcore tamper good?
Straight to the Point. Our favorite spring-loaded espresso tamper is the extremely consistent and sturdy Normcore V4 Coffee Tamper. We liked the Crema Coffee Products Distributor/Leveler & Hand Tamper as a palm version; it has a built-in leveler and tamps pucks consistently. Tamping is a key part of making that great shot of espresso, and a quality tamper can contribute to your success. Too much tamping pressure can result in a bitter cup and too little pressure can result in a watery shot. There won’t be enough resistance in the grounds to impede the flow of the water.
What’s the opposite of normcore?
If you didn’t know, now you do: The opposite of normcore is weirdcore, an aesthetic to describe the unique, funky, and odd! Normcore moves away from being cool and opts for a lack of individuality.
