Know before you buy
The knock box provides a dedicated, mess-free station to dispose of spent coffee pucks immediately after pulling an espresso shot. It prevents the need to walk to a trash bin and helps keep your coffee preparation area clean.
Yes, the 105mm diameter is compact and ideal for home kitchens where counter space is limited. It is large enough to hold several pucks before needing to be emptied, making it a practical choice for daily use.
Stainless steel is highly resistant to the repeated impact of knocking a portafilter against the bar. Unlike plastic alternatives, this material will not crack or degrade over time, ensuring a long lifespan even with heavy daily use.
While the stainless steel provides a sturdy weight, it is recommended to place the unit on a stable surface. The design is intended to remain stationary during the force of a knock, though adding a small silicone mat underneath can provide extra grip if your counter is particularly slick.
