Its compact footprint fits well on crowded countertops or under espresso machines.

• Training and demonstration stations where frequent knock-offs occur

Key specifications

• Material: stainless steel body for durability and easy cleaning
• Design: compact, countertop-friendly size suitable for limited spaces

How to use

Position the knock box on a stable countertop near the espresso machine. After pulling a shot, strike the portafilter against the knock bar to dislodge the spent puck into the container. Periodically lift out and discard the accumulated grounds into waste or compost, and rinse or wash the container as needed to remove residues and odor. Ensure the unit is dry before placing it back into regular use.

Usage recommendations

For best results, empty the container at regular intervals to prevent buildup and maintain hygienic conditions.
