  1. Yknow i dont think coffee tamping is gonna be the thing messing up my wrist when i’m raw dawging heavy bags with muh bare fists.

    I do believe, if anything kills my wrists. It’d be that.

  2. It just means you can't tamp too hard but certainly you can tamp not hard enough

    *Continue tamping with my whole body weight

  3. Amusingly, I found this video right above another of your videos, entitled "you can't tamp too hard".

  4. We make a little circle around the top and then push to even it out and to make sure the tamp is good.
    I love how terrible I am at explaining my job.

  5. If you tamp too hard you’ll break the space/time continuum and create a black hole.

  6. what is w the like. complaining negative nancies constantly in this guy’s comments. are you guys hate following or something?? you know you can just leave, you don’t have to antagonize other people 😂

  7. It's bullshit. You can't tamp too hard!!!
    Once max density is reached, you can't reach max-density-max-max rolling eyes

  8. And as always, our understanding of coffee keeps evolving. According to some of th studies produced by Lance Hedrick and friends, this video is correct, however, tamping multiple times in a row can lead to longer shot times with similar shot extraction, enabling more opportunities for tweaking like grinding coarser

  9. I got problems in my index finger's joint from tamping hard with the distributor fan daily. It's healing now that I stopped the habit but yeah I won't be doing that again.

  10. Focus on ur technique. Press with the elbow pointing hard. Wrist never got hurt between being a barista for 2 years. This is bullshit

  11. Dude if you get sore wrists making your coffee, just know I’m offering you first when we go back to natural selection

  12. This is not true, you should focus on it being level obviously but one has nothing to do with the other, you really can't tell when it stops moving down.. you must push pretty hard until it does..

  13. silly caption makes it sound like tamping hard is detrimental to puck prep but it's "oh you'll hurt your wrist" lol total clickbait

  14. I worked as a barista for several years 20 years ago. Had terrible repetitive motion syndrome that resulted in an L&I case, reduced work hours, and a ton of physical therapy.

  15. And the grind size also contributes more in brewing. Needs trial and error to get exact right tamping and grind size m
