Knock box

Also known as knock box · bac à marc · caja de posos · Abklopfbehälter

What it is and what sets it apart: Not any bucket—the bar takes the hit without hurting the handle. Cleaner than trash-only.

What it’s for and how to use it: After the shot → firm knock → wipe → empty often.

Cup impact or benefit: Cleaner workflow; less stale coffee on the counter.

Technical notes: Firm bar; size for daily pucks. Don’t overfill.

Common mistakes: Knocking the group or counter. Leaving pucks for days.
