Krups 027-70 Replacement Espresso Carafe, White Review

Krups 027-70 Replacement Espresso Carafe, White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Have a model 963 in white. The replacement carafe isn't *quite* the same--the handle is slightly different and it's a bit larger, so that the original lid doesn't snap in firmly. Make sure you keep your lid, as this one does NOT come with the lid! All in all, a good replacement. I am pleased.

Cheap (pricewise) product. Thermometer works as described, but had to spend some time adjusting the clip to fit the relatively thin-walled frothing cup. Easy to read display with a marked zone on the dial.

At first I felt that this knock box was too expensive and put off ordering it. But, having used it for several weeks, I see that it is worth the price. It is a very sturdy and well designed piece of equipment. I bought Terry's tamper and it fits very nicely in the base. It really improved my espresso-making experience.

There was no picture provided on this tamper when I bought it on Amazon so I trusted that they were all basically designed the same, but this one is rounded on the bottom which would make it hard to evenly tamp the coffee grounds, also it was a bit small.

Dreamfarm Charcoal Black Grindenstein Review

Dreamfarm Charcoal Black Grindenstein
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's just what we needed. After a major bill to a plumber who told us that coffee grounds collect like sand and clog pipes, we decided that $30 for a knock box was money well invested.
As many have said, the box is too small for commercial use but it's perfect for home and it even fits under the pour spout on the espresso machine for storage. The rubber feet and squat design hold it steady on the counter. The bar is wide, sturdy and rubber coated so it's not likely to dent your filter unit. And the low cut front edge insures that you don't accidentally hit the handle or your finger on the edge.
I think $30 is too high of a mark-up, but nothing cheaper looked nearly as functional. If ours was stolen by a coffe loving burglar (I don't expect it will break) I would buy another immediately.

Clear Espresso Hand Tamper/ Coffee Tamp - 58mm - Acrylic & Stainless Review

Clear Espresso Hand Tamper/ Coffee Tamp - 58mm - Acrylic and Stainless
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I owned the red-colored convex variation of this tamper.
I was initially happy with this tamper, but after a little bit over 3 months of use it broke apart as I was tampering coffee. An e-mail exchange with the retailer revealed that this is a know issue with this model of the tamper -- the tamper breaks if dropped. I have to agree that I probably dropped the tamper a couple of times during the time I used it because it rolls away so easily...
My expectation for any kitchen gadget/tool is that it should be sturdy enough not to break apart even if it felt from the counter. There are plenty of kitchen tools made of plastic that don't break so easily.
If you are not prepared to baby your espresso tamper, then do yourself a favor and get a more robust product.

I did not believe that a good tamper can make a big difference to the quality of espresso untill I tried this one. I purchased size 53 mm for my starbucks barista machine. It looks very nice. The stainless steel is a mirror like finish. The wood handle is a perfect size and finish. It fits exactly the portafilter of my machine. When I use it I can prepare amazing esprsesso each time. Highly recommended.

Dreamfarm Steel Wool Silver Grindenstein Review

An excellent product. Sturdy design, easy to clean, and fits perfectly under my espresso maker's group head.
My only complaints are THE PRICE. Seriously, $30+ for a plastic cup?
Also the noise. Dreamfarm's website reads, "Thick and durable rubber sleeve protects the group handle, absorbs the striking force and makes it quiet to use."
I have to laugh at this. Knocking grounds out of my group head sounds like I'm hammering a grand piano with a 5 pound sledge. My neighbor even asked what all the banging was in the morning.
Sorry Dreamfarm. The Grindenstein's patented shape AMPLIFIES sound. Try it out yourselves sometime.
By far the best option on the market though. Go ahead and get one.

This is a good knock box if there is only one person in the house drinking espresso. Perfect for someone like myself who only has a double shot every morning. It holds about 8 double shot "pucks" comfortably. The color in this picture is accurate. The red definately stands out on the counter!

Red 49mm Espresso Tamper Stainless Steel Coffee Review

Red 49mm Espresso Tamper Stainless Steel Coffee
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have a DeLonghi EC155 and the inside diameter of the portafilter basket is 51mm. Many larger machines have 53 or 58mm baskets so these larger tampers won't work with the EC155. I couldn't find any 50 or 51mm sizes, so I ordered this 49mm size. It works perfectly, no problems whatsoever. Much more convenient than using the attached plastic tamper on the machine. The problem with that is that you must push the basket UP to compress the coffee while holding your other hand on top of the machine to hold it down. Much, much easier to just push down with this tamper. Also, this is a substantial tool, made of 18/8 Stainless Steel and weighs in at almost a half-pound (7.5 oz or 212 g). Unlike aluminum alloys, this will not discolor in the dishwasher.

Rattleware 8-by-6-Inch Packing Mat Review

Solid mat holds up to heavy tamping pressure, protecting counter surfaces. Dimensions are accurate (6 x 8), but photo shows a mat with different dimensions. When new, the mat had a heavy (and offensive) rubber smell. Multiple washings have reduced the odor, and hopefully that reduction will continue.... The odor kept me from giving the product 5 stars.

I gave it 3 stars for sturdiness, but it barely holds 32 oz, let alone 33. At just under 32 of water it's spilling over. When I opened the box and saw how tiny it was I took out my 32 oz measuring cup to test its true capacity.

RSVP Modern Espresso Knockout Box Review

RSVP Modern Espresso Knockout Box
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
You might think "flimsy and undersized" when you see this, but it's actually a very practical knockout box for an ordinary home kitchen. The heavy rubber base is a critical piece that you'd probably overlook in picking up a larger industrial knockout box, and it really is a great sound-deadening part of it. But here's the rub: that rubber sheath around the metal bar begins to come apart after six months or so, and not only ceases to keep you from banging directly on the metal bar, but decomposes into a mass of grimey rubber that partly coats the bar and partly just falls into the box. So whatya do? Take the bar down to your local hardware store and ask for a short length of rubber house to cover it. They'll help you get the right diameter. I bought 3" of handsome blue airhose (heavy rubber under blue rubber with nylon mesh to strengthen it) for $0.35 and it's been a dream.

Rattleware 5-Inch Easy Steam S10 Review

Rattleware 5-Inch Easy Steam S10
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have owned this product now for about 4 months and it has been a great help to me in frothing milk for cappuccinos and lattes. I am a fairly serious cappucino junkie, Expobar machine, Mazzer mini grinder.
This product works best on my 20oz frothing pitcher, which I use most to prepare coffee drinks for 2-3 people. The clip holds well and it can be used unattended during the start of the steam process.
But, when I try to use it on my 12oz pitcher, it does not attach well because of the large clip on this thermometer. So it is less useful on this size.
In all, I love the analog display and the color coded areas. It very quickly gives you an assessment of how close you are to frothing (+140) temperature without having to read the display too closely.
Not perfect, but a good product.
