JoeFrex Knock Base

The convex shape helps distribute coffee grounds more evenly across the portafilter basket. By creating a slight indentation, it encourages water to flow through the coffee bed more uniformly, which can lead to a more balanced and consistent extraction.

Yes, the silicone ring is designed to withstand frequent tapping while protecting your portafilter from scratches or dings. It is a robust material that balances durability with the gentle impact needed for your equipment.

Yes, this accessory is dishwasher safe. The removable bar design makes it particularly easy to clean, ensuring you can keep your coffee station hygienic without much effort.

The Base Knock features an M8 thread and is specifically designed for compatibility with Joe Frex handles. If you are using a different brand of handle, you will need to verify that it uses the same M8 threading standard.

Tapping your portafilter directly on a hard surface can damage the basket or the handle over time. This tool provides a dedicated, cushioned surface that protects your gear while ensuring you get a level, settled bed of grounds before you tamp.
