Tamper BigStep MK III I Wenge

BigStep Base MK III: the high-end tamper with an even better surface

The further development of the patented world champion tamper with the golden titanium nitride coating: even harder, more resistant, more durable.

By the way, the MK III also looks great with its matt gold surface.

Titanium nitride is a ceramic compound made of titanium and nitrogen, which is ideal for materials subject to high loads due to its outstanding material properties.

• Highest hardness (2450 HV)
• Best adhesion resistance
• Inert against acids and alkalis
• Maximum temperature resistance due to extremely high melting point (2950°C)
• Not thermally conductive
• Hygienic, biologically harmless, absolutely food safe

The insensitivity of the TIN coating to corrosive influences, even in critical environments, significantly increases the service life of the coated material. The surface of your BigStep MKIII tamper also has a 2-10x longer lifespan than uncoated steel.

Of course, the usual BigStep properties remain with the MK III:

• 58.55mm (+/- 0.02mm)
• Patented step for precise tamping without vacuum
• no channeling
• high-quality, food-safe 440C stainless steel
• hand-friendly compression zone (cone)
• Hygienic, biologically harmless, absolutely food safe
• perfect with Pullman 876 Filtration Baskets

The BigStep is the non-plus-ultra among tampers and it is not for nothing that it has won countless titles in barista and latte art championships. With a diameter of 58.55 mm and extremely low tolerances of +/- 0.02 mm, the Big-Step fits exactly into the precision sieves made specifically for the Pullman system and thus avoids any channeling from the outset.

The result is an extremely even puck that is optimally compressed even at the edges of the screen. Extremely high-quality 440C stainless steel for freedom from wear and the best material properties.
Patented 'Step' ensures that despite the extreme fit of the tamper base to the sieve, no vacuum is created when lifting after tamping.

The BigStep Base MK III comes with a golden 5mm spacer. For more individual adjustments, we have spacers in different widths, colors and materials in the accessories category.

Danger:
Pullman cannot control the wide range of different inside diameters across many brands and weight ratings of precision screens.
Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the BigStep is compatible with screens from third-party manufacturers.
We therefore strongly recommend purchasing Pullman Filtration Baskets. These are perfectly adapted to the BigStep base and checked by hand.

Pullman Barista Handle - WENGE

Wenge (Millettia laurentii), a medium-sized tree up to 15m high that produces dark brown to purplish-black, mostly straight-grained wood with an interesting grain.

The wood is hard, heavy and weatherproof and is often used in furniture construction, musical instruments and wood turning work.

Easy to clean with a damp cloth.
An individual engraving contrasts well on the dark wood.

Our hardwood handles are very popular and provide a great contrast to stainless steel machines and work surfaces.
