the Knock Box™ 10

The rubber base grips my counter so well that the whole box stays put even with a solid whack. The knock bar handles the heavy portafilter without any give, and cleanup takes seconds since the bar pops off for a quick rinse.

I've gone through three cheap knock boxes in two years, and this one finally feels solid enough to last. The bar is genuinely durable and the rubber base keeps it from sliding around when I slam the portafilter down. Cleanup is just a quick rinse, which beats digging soggy grounds out of a drawer.

The removable knock bar is a lifesaver—I can toss it in the sink after a busy morning of shots without wrestling the whole box. It’s solid enough that my portafilter doesn’t bounce, and the coffee puck drops out clean every single time.
