The docetta thingie is in fact both a crude tamper and a shower screen in one. Just use it like what the manual says - with the two-finger tamp and leave it in - it does work! However I did find that using a 'dedicated' tamper (below) pulls me a better extraction. I had quite a few 58.x tampers but unfortunately none of them fit....



It's an Aeropress piston if it's not clear what it is. :p

Oh my - in some basement in Germany/Taiwan/Netherlands somebody is reading this and kicking around a rubber tamper Kickstarter idea.

Flaccid Tamper Kickstarter. Why tamp when one can squish?

Here you go...just shot a video of the Faema Baby in action today, including the 'Flaccid' tamper (aka part-time bean doser) that works surprisingly well

Sweet looking..

Appreciate the filter and the editing...lol

Haha, no problem, you'll have to excuse my amateur editing skill.
