which tamper tool fits the 32 oz container?

Order the mini-tamper from Vitamix.com. Amazon does not sell the mini-tamper. I have noticed that some people recommend using the longer tamper that comes with the tall 64 oz. container, because that particular tamper has a step that in theory will prevent it from reaching the blades in the shorter 32 oz. container. Unfortunately, there have been too many instances of that tamper being pushed vigorously enough to cause it to go past the step and hit the blades of the 32 oz. container, which destroys the end of the tamper. It's not worth the risk... just get the correct tamper for the job, the mini-tamper.

I ordered the vitamix with the 64oz container and the 32 oz separately. It comes with it's own tamper.

I had to order the tamper tool separately from Vitamix, but it may be available through Amazon. If you purchase the Vitamix and order the 32oz container, the tamper for the 64oz will be too wide for the 32oz container. Hope this helps!

I don't use a tamper, but I think the tampers are a standard size. The machine comes with a coffee scoop that has a tamper on one end. I have a Silver starbucks tamper/scoop that we received as a wedding gift, and it also fits this machine.

Any old filter wrench will fit. However I don't think you can get a filter pliers into that space.

The tamper that comes with the EC50 is plastic, flemsy and worthless. Ordering a real tamper today.*update: After using one of the popular 49mm tampers on this site, I find it to be too small. You really want a good fit and yes even that 1mm gives to bad tamping since the sides won't be consistent with the rest of your pod. Thing is there doesn't seem to be many choices in the 50mm variety, on this site at least.

I bought a 22" long screwdriver set locally for under $5 (at a discount tool supplier that sells "Pittsburgh" branded tools) and used that. I didn't have another screwdriver long enough in my 20+ years tool collection.

I purchased a tamper....but other than the fact that it was the correct [smaller diameter] size! I can offer no additional info than it has some weight. The tamper included with the machine is at best a toy...TOTALLY inadequate for the role of a tamper. DO NOT go for a $6 combo tamper @ one of the chain kitchen stores... Search the web/Amazon for the correct size/weight

You do not want to use a tamper with this container. It throws the mix upward and does a good job without a tamper. It does leave some larger particles in the lower corners of the container which can be incorporated using a spoon for further grinding (of course, while the motor is not running).

I have a 49MM espresso tamper. Amazon sells them with red or blue inserts. They fit perfectly. Remember to give it a twist as you remove it after tamping. That keeps the ground coffee from sticking to the metal tamper.

Not sure. I suggest you review your user manual for the Breville machine, or look it up on the internet, to determine what size tamper works best with your particular model. You may also want to e-mail Rattleware and ask them the question. Good luck.

My tamper measures: 12 3/4 inches the entire length but only 9 1/2 inches from where it stops on the lid and extends into the blender. My container is 68 oz.

Tucker, do what I did. Measure the diameter of the filter basket on your machine with a ruler that has a metric side. Once you determine the width of your basket in millimeters, compare that to the width of this tamper, which is 51mm per the product description. You certainly don't want a tamper that won't fit into the basket. You also don't want a tamper that is too small (not close to the width of the basket) as you will end up shoving the grounds all around in your filter basket. That's the problem I had trying to use my old, smaller tamper with my new machine with a wider basket.

This is a "Wet Blade" assembly that will work on either 64 or 32 oz containers, but WILL NOT work on a 48 oz container. I believe the containers fit all the various Vita Mix bases (mine is a 5200), but I'm not positive about that. If you do get this blade assembly, I would highly recommend that you also purchase the blade removal wrench as it makes the job very easy! I hope this info was helpful!

I have the 16 oz. size flask. Cannot answer honestly about the 32oz size. Don't think it will work, but that's a guess since I don't have the 32oz. size

No, it does not come with tamper. I do still use the tamper from original vitamix container although it is not a perfect fit.

I don't know, I have the older 64 oz container. Definitely worth a call to Vitamix to find out.
