Here’s the description of the tamper from the Espresso Parts website  which retails for $54:

The 30EP5_BLACK espresso tamp handle is precision machine milled from solid aluminum. When attached to the heavier stainless steel base the lighter weight aluminum handle provides a proper mass ratio between the two which results in an exceptional feeling of balance.

The handles are beautifully anodized with a silky matte finish in the specified color allowing long lasting durability and grandeur. This is one of the nicest most natural feeling handles on the market. Fits all Espresso Parts coffee/espresso tamp piston bases.

Weighing in at 1lbs 1oz including a stainless steel tamper piston. The 30EP5_BLACK handle has the heft and feel that many professional barista today are looking for.

Espresso Parts’ tamper pistons are professionally machine milled stainless steel, and are available in your choice of a flat or convex tamp piston in the following stock sizes: 58mm and 57mm.

That’s a great prize all on its own! But guess what? Yep, there’s even more! There’s the SCAA swag bag, and in that (among other treats) is the new Custom Shop Scout Book where you can make plans to trick out all of your favorite equipment!
