Cafelat currently has 3 different tamping mats to offer – the flat, our own unique corner mat and splat mat. Tamping mats are an essential must-have accessory for every barista, be it in a busy commercial setting or at home.

Sure you can buy a flat square of rubber in any hardware shop that would achieve a lot of the aims of our Cafelat mats, but more often than not these are smelly old bits of rubber that look awful. Our mats have been tested by us over the past 12 months for durability, have no odour or taste and thanks to Karina they look amazing.

Corner Mat ​

Picture
The Cafelat corner tamping mat is our unique and innovative solution for those baristas who like to tamp with the portafilter on the edge of the table. This is an idea Paul had a few years ago, but it took our designer Karina to really transform what could have been an ordinary looking product into something that is cute and incredibly functional. The compact size is great for even the smallest barista workstations and the part that overhangs is small enough not to obscure doors or drawers that may be underneath.
 
When using the mat it is important to modify your technique to avoid any chance of injury, should the portafilter slip for any reason. When holding the portafilter up against the corner tamping mat, push the portafilter in towards the counter away from you. With the tamper in the other hand tamp downwards as you normally would do. This technique ensures the portafilter remains fixed.

Small Flat Mat

Flat tamping mats are a must-have accessory for every barista workstation. In busy coffee bars they give baristas much needed cushioning when tamping hundreds if not thousands of times per day and for the home baristas they prevent the wrath of a spouse when they discover the scratches made by the portafilters on expensive kitchen counters! 
Our attractive mat may also be pushed up against a grinder or even underneath the forks so that they can act as a tray to collect stray grinds from those messy dosers.
