When K Bean Coffee Machines started up I soon noticed a problem. Premium “branded” accessories were too pricey and bargain basement accessories weren’t good enough. So began my quest for premium accessories without the premium price tag.

My range now includes the amazing K Bean Precision Tamper along with a number of other K Bean Coffee Tools. These are amazing value. You will notice that many are far less than half the price of similar accessories on the market.

The Platinum Kit includes:

• K Bean Coffee Beans Single origin coffee beans from Kaffa, Ethiopia, the birthplace of Coffee Arabica. 250g. To learn about my Ethiopian coffee beans Click Here

• K Bean Barista Jug  This is the best milk jug that you will find. It’s thick and solid, it's shape is great for milk texturing, and it's spout is perfect for pouring latté art.

• K Bean Coffee Machine Cleaner This cleaner dissolves coffee oils with ease so it is perfect for cleaning your portafilters, baskets, shower screens and for back-flushing your coffee machine’s group.

• K Bean Wallchart A mini wallchart with my home barista espresso workflow. Sit this beside your machine and follow the simple steps to get amazing coffee.

• K Bean Barista Cloth This barista cloth will keep your coffee station and your coffee machine nice and clean. I use this microfibre cloth to absorb drips as I remove the portafilter, to wipe the basket dry before I dose, to protect the bench when I tamp down, to absorb drips as I remove the portafilter and knock out the puck, and finally, to wipe down the coffee machine and the drip tray.

• K Bean Precision Distributor This adjustable tool, weighing in at 375g, improves the quality and repeatability of espresso extractions by distributing grinds evenly from the center to the edges of the basket and also, by creating a flat puck to tamp onto. Improvements to extractions when using a double basket are significant. When using a single basket the improvements are remarkable.

• K Bean Precision Tamper Simply the best hand crafted tampers available, with handles crafted from santos rosewood. Every one is unique and every one is beautiful. K Bean precision tampers have 58.5 mm flat stainless steel bases to enable a piston fit with coffee machine baskets.

• K Bean Knock Box This premium knock box is perfect for home. It’s innovative knock pad is far more usable than a traditional knock bar - tidier and easier to clean. I highly recommend this one.

• K Bean Bottomless Portafilter Bottomless portafilters are the tool of choice for seasoned espresso enthusiasts. There’s some real magic in a naked extraction. K Bean bottomless portafilters are absolutely beautiful, with santos rosewood handles and smooth, polished curves.

• K Bean Double Basket A premium double basket for your portafilter.

• K Bean Coffee Scales A controlled coffee dose is one of the keys to consistently brilliant espresso. This is why I always recommend a set of scales. These scales are perfect for weighing a coffee dose. They have 0.1 g readings, quick response time, and a large tray to hold your portafilter during weighing. They also have a handy timer function.
