I have that knock box! It is indeed great.
This is my fave - Artpresso group brush. Such a simple idea to combine a brush, short flat headed screwdriver and mirror.
Makes cleaning/inspecting the LM group/screen an absolute breeeze.

Cuprajake they look good actually. I’ve got some smart weight scales, fairly similar in the sense they won’t die. I soaked them yesterday, the LCD had water in it. Just put them on the warming tray for 30 mins and all is well!
Ernie1 now that actually looks quite awesome. Going to have to get one of those 🙂
caffeinated-carp indeed. Link please!!
Mine, for now, is my Sworks funnel. A joy to use, and even just hold.

I bought two of their walnut tamper stands to make the US shipping worthwhile but I just noticed there’s a few UK retailers now:
caffeinated-carp yes, see my post on it.
Has anyone used the Espazzola grouphead cleaner? Any good?

I use the pallo coffee tool.
We probably all have a few accessories we use and don’t think about much so here’s one I always use, the simple cellulose sponge. I cut them into 3” x 2” sort of size and wrap the others in cling film and change every few days, they last for ages and so no unpleasant cloth hanging around and I don’t need bigger.
You know the sort of sponges, packet of 4 for £1 or so from most supermarkets like this example https://www.wilko.com/en-uk/wilko-cellulose-sponge-wipes-4-pack/p/0269792

I have a knock off one.
One of the few knock offs I own.
I works well enough to use occasionally on the Bianca but not well enough to buy the real one.
I have a Pallo as well and it gets used for deep cleans.
I did make a back flusher out of an old PF and a double action pneumatic cylinder (sort of like this https://www.google.com/aclk?sa=l&ai=DChcSEwiop53bkcf-AhVUVisKHacpBbEYABBLGgJzZg&sig=AOD64_1h1raZnY98n-3ucPJs3H8Zn3MkCw&adurl&ctype=5&ved=2ahUKEwjy95Lbkcf-AhX7odgFHTEnAb4Quxd6BQgBELcE )
It is really satisfying flushing 100mls back through an E61 after cleaning.
Amberale Sounds like Weber took the same approach…
Amberale hah that’s awesome, and yeh does look like the weber one. i must admit i do like the look/function of the weber, very cool
I have a Chinese knock off and the original one. Strangely rhe knock off seems to work better.
