- Is the Grindenstein big enough for daily home use?
- Yes for one or two espresso drinks a day. It holds about 445 ml of pucks, so heavier use means emptying it more often.
- Does the knock bar damage the portafilter?
- The steel bar is coated in Santoprene rubber, which cushions the impact and is gentler on the basket than a bare metal bar.
- Can it go in the dishwasher?
- Yes. It is top-rack dishwasher safe, and the body can also be rinsed by hand.
- How does it compare with larger knock boxes?
- It is smaller and lighter than cafe-style boxes, so it saves counter space but holds fewer pucks. It also costs more than basic plastic bins.
- What is it made of?
- A BPA-free ABS plastic body with a Santoprene rubber-coated steel knock bar and a rubber base.
- Does it come with a lid or spare parts?
- It is a single-piece bin with no lid. The knock bar is fixed, so there are no loose parts to lose.
- Where is the Dreamfarm Grindenstein Knock Box cheapest?
- At Sabavi Home, for $29.49, as of our latest check.
