EQUIPMENT · TESTED IN THE BARS

Equipment we actually use

No shelf-filler. Everything here is on the counter in at least one of our bars: hand grinders, pour-over brewers, scales, filter papers and the lever machines we keep coming back to.

Ask us what to buy

By brew method

Espresso at home

From a lever machine to a simple pressurised basket — we stock what we can service and explain.

Filter and pour-over

Drippers, papers and hand grinders that get you a clean cup without a barista course.

Grind

A grinder is the upgrade that changes more than the machine. Buy the grinder first, thank us later.

On the go

Eco cups, travel presses and the drip bags for when there is no equipment at all.

SOURCE, ROAST, BREW — Episode 2: Wouter Strietman

In our SOURCE, ROAST, BREW series we talk to the people building the gear we use. Episode 2 is Wouter Strietman, who explains the CT2 lever espresso machine: why a spring-loaded lever gives you a different shot than a pump, and why he ships one machine at a time.

Not sure what you need?

Tell us what you drink now and how much of it. We will suggest the shortest path to a better cup — and we will tell you when the answer is 'nothing new'.
