Espresso Tampers

Our Coffee Barn

 Importing Espresso Tampers

We have started to Import Espresso Tampers directly from a manufacturer in China.  This first order is a test market order, if sales are good we will buy them in larger quantities. Please Inquire if you would like to buy them in larger quantities (5 or 10 of each color and size), if we get enough inquiries we will place a larger order, turnaround time is about 30 days from us wiring the money to our receipt of tampers.

Here is a short description and some pictures of the sample tamper we ordered.  I loved the way it felt in my hand while I used it, and the American curve seemed to pull a pretty good shot too!

 

   

Espresso Tampers, Flat Bottom and American Curved Bases

Polished Aluminum, Rosewood, Black, Red and Blue Handles

Notice the convex curve of the base in the bottom right picture, this is what we are calling the American Curve. Here is a closeup view, that is a glass topped counter it is setting on.

The pictures seen here are of the sample tamper we ordered before we placed our full order. We are Importing these tampers directly from China, our first order is kind of small, but if the tampers sell well we will buy them in larger quantities. We are hoping for the full order to arrive by Sept 15 2009.

About this Coffee:

I found this farm or should I say they found me, during my Email announcement of our Hawaii Molokai Peaberry one of our customers replied back that they acually own a coffee farm in Hawaii! Samples were requested and my extended family enjoyed it very much during the 2008 Christmas season, so I placed an order with Kaipo at Makapueo Farms Estate. We are buying direct from the farm so they get the full profit they deserve for their hard work and you get to enjoy some 100% pure Hawaii Kona coffee!

From the Makapueo Farms:

Aloha from all of us at Makapueo Farms, where we take great pride in raising and processing only the finest coffee beans. We do this to be sure that every cup of coffee that you have is that of the finest quality possible.

We may be a bit biased, but we’ve tasted a lot of very good Hawaiian coffee. From our farms in Hawaii, coffee is more than just a hot morning beverage, it’s a life experience. Welcome to the “Finest Gourmet Coffee In The World.”

Mahalo,

Kaipo

About this Coffee:

This coffee was produced with the help of Slow Food International. The Slow Food movement aims to support small-scale producers who preserve crop varieties, agricultural practices, and food traditions. A Presidium, or an organized group of producers, was created in the Huehuetenango region of Guatemala with the help of Slow Food. Today, the Presidium consists of 170 small growers who are organized through local cooperatives in three different communities: San Pedro Necta, La Libertad, and Todos Santos Cuchumatán.
The Presidium producers work to protect both the health of the local environment and the well-being of the producers and their families. In addition, producers are committed to maintaining and improving the quality of the coffee they produce, and educational workshops and technical training help to give producers a better understanding of the factors that affect the quality of coffee.

Wow! Awesome. Thank you.

Wow!  Awesome.  Thank you.  We’re redoing our kitchen and everything is boxed and the place is a wreck.  That said, our coffee pot and grinder are plugged in on the screened porch and we have access to our Coffee Barn beans!  Kind of nice to sit on the porch and enjoy a nice cup in the AM.
Have a good afternoon.

Best Thing Since Sliced Bread

Thank you, Barb. 

I appreciate the credit but you didn’t have to do that.
Your usual shipping procedure is just fine w/ me.  I don’t often panic, but being w/o GOOD coffee beans will send me there fast.  I share my ‘stash’ w/my 80 year old mother.  We both think your product is the best thing since sliced bread…or ground beans, as it were!
Thank you again, both for the great coffee we enjoy daily, and the great service you’ve given us.

Sincerely,
Chris

Great customer service!

Thanks, Barb.  The package arrived in great shape today.  Great customer service!
