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.

Incidentally, the MK III also looks great with its matt gold finish.

Titanium nitride is a ceramic compound of titanium and nitrogen, which is ideally suited for materials with high loads due to its outstanding material properties. 

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

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

Of course, the usual BigStep properties are also retained with the MK III:

• 58,55 mm ( +/- 0,02mm)
• patented step for exact tamping without vacuum
• no channeling
• high-quality, food-safe 440C stainless steel
• hand-friendly compression zone (cone)
• Hygienic and biologically harmless, absolutely food-safe
• perfect with Pullman 876 Filtration Baskets

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

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

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

Danger: 

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