After a long search, finally a solution for those coffee grounds! Such a simple but incredibly useful item to get rid of coffee grounds after brewing your coffee. I can definitely recommend this!

Thank you once again to the YuppieChef team for the excellent service. I placed the order yesterday and the Knock Box arrived today. The size is just perfect for home use and the build quality is superb.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
It's a knock-out!

Review by John-Michael B. on 6 March 2013
We make nigh on 100 cups of coffee a day here at Yuppiechef HQ, and our knock box is still going strong. It is a sturdy design and the materials are durable; it definitely makes preparing your morning brew more convenient, especially when there is a queue of people behind you waiting to get their caffeine fix. This is a solid product which cannot be faulted.
I would recommend this product to a friend.

Review by Rowan M. on 23 April 2013, 14 days after purchase
Great for making espresso's at home. Initially not as big as I thought it would be but the smaller size wastes less space on the counter top and can hold more left over coffee grinds than expected! Love the build quality and it always gets a comment from those watching you pull a shot!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Nicely working

Review by Ingrid F. on 6 August 2013, 11 days after purchase
The box works very well but the coffee grounds may not be soaking wet, then it splashes all over the place.
I'm glad I bought it and would recommend it to every espresso lover.
Although the red one is really eye catching, I opted for a black one as coffee stains don't matter here.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Useful and attractive

Review by Kate H. on 15 November 2013, 2 months after purchase
As others have remarked, it is smaller than one would expect, which is great because it doesn't take up much space and fits easily into the top drawer of the dishwasher!
It has a nice, simple, tasteful design that'll fit in with any espresso machine imo. The non-slip base is excellent. I've found that it also functions well as a used tea-bag receptacle (after all, the compost heap benefits from both tea and coffee remains...)
If the coffee grounds are too wet, the knocking out can cause a bit of splatter, but not nearly as bad as I expected. And it appears to be seriously durable - don't expect it to come to any harm any time soon... Read more

Super Nifty Tool

Review by Renske B. on 8 April 2014, over 1 year after purchase
This product is one that amateur coffee-lovers (like me) probably don't think about at first. Luckily my friend who is a coffee-lover of note, recommended this product to me. This product is very handy and makes cleaning the portafilter so easy!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Strong little thing

Sturdy piece of kit. More than strong enough for home use.
Looks really cool on the counter too.

This knock box is a perfect size for the home barista - works well and is dishwasher proof. I was initially concerned that it may be too small - but on extensive use this weekend it proved it's capability. Now I love the size - plus it makes storage a breeze.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Essential for the home barista

Review by Talita H. on 28 November 2015, 23 days after purchase
When I bought this, I was a afraid it would be a little cheap plastic knock off (pun intended!) of the real thing. However, it's a strong melamine little treasure. Small enough for the apartment kitchen, and it comes with a nice little pamphlet to show how you can use your leftover grinds more environmentally friendly. Very very happy with it!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Great product

This little product works great and looks great next to my Delonghi eco310. The product is as described, making brewing coffee both quick and fun.

Don't know how we lived without it!

Review by MARGUERITE C. on 3 November 2016, over 1 year after purchase
This is a fantastic product - so much so that I bought this one for my cousin as he's always throwing the coffee grinds in the sink and upsetting his wife! We've had one of these for a year or so and it's brilliant. We're now able to easily empty the dregs into the garden or compost.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Great little knock box

Review by Eileen V. on 26 September 2018, 15 days after purchase
I was worried this would be too small when it arrived but it works surprisingly well and fits nicely onto my Rancilio espresso machine's drip tray. I liked the booklet with composting tips as well.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Perfect product

Review by Susan B. on 13 January 2019, 1 month after purchase
This knockbox is strong, durable and attractive. The dark colour means it doesn’t show dirt. A knockbox, as it’s name suggests, gets knocked and beaten all the time so it has to be able to withstand all that manhandling. The Dreamfarm Grindenstein knockbox does exactly that. A great buy!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Nifty addition to our coffee station

Review by Nicola A. on 23 July 2019, 13 days after purchase
It doesn't get 5 stars because it's a lot smaller than I expected and could be slightly bigger. It does hold quite a bit and takes up no space on the counter though, so almost perfect ;)
I would recommend this product to a friend.
The back walls are not high enough
Item reviewed: Black
Review by Chris M. on 27 November 2019, 15 days after purchase
If you are going to be using this with smaller home machines, you will find that the used coffee grinds in the Portafilter (the hangle thing you put the coffee in) is still very wet. This means that when you bang it out on the knock box it starts to splatter the wet grinds everywhere after the third or fourth hit. It makes a bit of a mess. I would prefer if the back and sidewalls of the knock box were higher to help stop this splattering all over the kitchen counter.
Other than that, it's rather nice to look at and seeing as there are not any other options, I would still buy it. Read more

just as described

Review by Rosemary M. on 29 December 2019, 16 days after purchase
Great addition to my coffee corner. The grounds fall easily into the box and it holds plenty of grounds ready to use in my garden. so much less messy than tipping them into the rubbish bin and eco friendly too.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Smaller than you think
Item reviewed: Black
Review by Johan B. on 15 June 2020
The quality is ok. the box is way smaller than expected and it is hard to empty your coffee into the box without making a mess around the box. It does not serve the purpose I bought it for.
I would not recommend this product to a friend.
Amazing product

Review by Gisela D. on 5 October 2020, 1 month after purchase
Bought it as a gift for my husband and he loves it. If you are still in doubt after reading all the positive reviews on this product - go visit the Dreamfarm website - the "about us" section. You will see what an awesome team they are and the products they make. So go ahead - buy this product. And I think the large is the right size, I don't think a smaller one will do.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
A neat, stylish solution.

This is a wonderful solution for those coffee dregs that end up everywhere.
Wish I had bought it earlier. I bought the large, it is not very big and any smaller would have been disappointing.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
The bar will come loose.

Review by Anonymous on 13 October 2023
So, I love the Dreamfarm thinking. Great company. But I've bought two Knock boxes now (the medium and the large) and I've encountered the same problem with both. Basically, after several months of repeated daily use, the central bar comes loose.
This happened on both knock boxes. I like the idea of trying to lessen the noise of banging the old coffee out, but they haven't perfected the mechanism. I've glued both back in but they come loose again.
I may be wrong but I haven't returned either because it happens months and months after the purchase date, not easily within a reasonable returnable time frame. Read more
