Avanti Knock Box - Black

Purpose: The knock box is used to conveniently and hygienically dispose of used coffee grounds, also known as "pucks," after brewing espresso shots. It's an essential tool for espresso preparation, providing a designated space to discard the spent coffee grounds.

Material: Knock boxes are typically made of durable materials such as stainless steel or plastic. Stainless steel models are sturdy and easy to clean, while plastic models may be more lightweight and affordable.

Design: The knock box features a sturdy container with a bar or rod across the top. After brewing espresso, the portafilter (the handle containing the coffee grounds) is gently tapped against the bar, releasing the puck of used coffee grounds into the container below.

Size: Knock boxes come in various sizes to accommodate different volumes of coffee grounds. The size you choose depends on the capacity of your espresso machine and how often you brew espresso.

Non-slip Base: Many knock boxes have a non-slip base to prevent them from moving around on your countertop or espresso bar during use.

Ease of Cleaning: A removable bar or rod and an easily detachable container make it easy to empty and clean the knock box when necessary.

Versatility: While primarily used for espresso preparation, knock boxes can also be used to dispose of coffee grounds from other brewing methods, such as French press or drip coffee.
