This is an espresso knock box, a trapezoidal bin used to empty spent coffee grounds out of a portafilter basket. It holds an 800 ml capacity and includes a removable knock bar mounted on two side knobs. The bar lifts off for emptying and rinsing. The ABS body is a solid burnt sugar color. It is hand wash only and sized for a single portafilter at a time.
Features
- Removable knock bar lifts off its two side knobs so the bin can be emptied and rinsed without disassembling any screws
- Trapezoidal shape widens toward the top, giving extra clearance for a portafilter basket to swing and strike the bar
- Rubberized ends on the knock bar cushion the point of contact where the portafilter basket makes repeated impact
- Solid ABS plastic construction resists cracking from the daily knocking motion used to release the spent coffee puck
- Open top with no lid keeps the bin quick to access and quick to empty after each shot
- Matte burnt sugar finish on the exterior and interior walls shows minimal scuffing from daily counter use
