The Grounds Control is our premium solution for professional baristas at home barista enthusiasts. The two smaller sizes are intended for serious home-espresso setups, while the largest is designed for commercial equipment.
Handmade in Ireland from 1.5mm 304 stainless steel, the housing provides a broad, rigid platform for heavy grinders and espresso machines. Choose the correct size and every foot will sit fully supported on top.
Our reinforced, rubber-covered Triangular Knock Bar softens each strike into a dull, controlled thud, with an estimated working life of 250,000 knocks before the bar needs replacing. Heavy-duty stainless-steel brackets keep it securely in place.
The drawer moves on fixed, CNC-machined low-friction rails. These control sideways movement and prevent steel-on-steel contact, giving the Grounds Control a smooth, quiet action without the rattling and clunking common in looser drawers.
Top perforations allow steam to escape as the pucks cool, reducing the moisture buildup that leads to mould. The drawer pulls out completely when it is time to empty or clean it.
Embedded rubber feet help keep the unit planted and absorb some of the impact from knocking. A solid walnut handle finishes the drawer and gives it a warmer, less industrial appearance.
Please check the overall dimensions and the position of your equipment’s feet before choosing a size. The two smaller Grounds Control models suit most domestic installations; the largest should normally be reserved for commercial equipment. Full measurements and load capacities are shown in our Will My Grinder Fit? section.
The two smaller Grounds Control models are backed by the Outlast Your Grinder Guarantee when purchased directly from our website for domestic use: if the drawer doesn’t outlast the grinder you own today, we’ll replace it, free.*
