The Bloc Knock Box and Tamp Station

A walnut workstation combining a removable knock box, portafilter support, and tool wells.

Where to buy

The object

The Bloc consolidates tamping and puck disposal into a 190-by-140-millimeter hardwood body. A portafilter support spans the removable metal bin, while two shallow wells keep a tamper and distribution tool in reach.

Its compact footprint can organize a crowded espresso counter, though tool shapes and portafilter ears determine how securely each piece sits. The selected walnut version is a fixed station rather than a portable mat.
