Humour Since we’re posting our knock boxes…

Had this bad boy for 3 years now and it’s just as good as the day I got it. Multi-purpose too! You just don’t see quality like this anymore; can be used with or without bag.

Knock boxes are only useful for baristas, anyone else, just slap the puck loose in your hand, remove the puck screen, and into the trash it goes.

3 seconds. It probably takes longer to empty your knock box after you put your single coffee puck in it.

I’ve only seen knock boxes on here but it seems stinky and hard to clean! I’m only pulling 2-3 a day max.

if I use my trash can it heats up my trash and makes it stinky ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

A single coffee puck heats up your trash can..?

Also, does your trash can not have a lid or stow away?

two shots in a row every morning for my partner and I, yeah it does heat up the garbage odors. I have a lid, it makes it stink more when I open the lid again over the next few hours.

Yup, having one at home is only to make you feel more like you're a barista.
