The Knock Out Buddy was created by us in 2016 and has been a game-changing innovation in the coffee industry that reimagines waste management. Designed for café owners, this clever tool allows spent coffee grounds to be easily returned to their original bag, giving customers the option to take them home. 

About Us

 

At Knock Out Buddy, we believe in making coffee preparation smarter, cleaner, and more sustainable. Designed with the modern barista in mind—whether in a bustling café or a compact mobile setup—our innovative alternative to the traditional knock-out drawer is changing the game.

​

Made 100% in the UK, the Knock Out Buddy blends form, function, and responsibility into one intuitive product. Its quieter operation, robust construction, and compact design make it a top choice for professionals and hobbyists alike. It’s not only easy to clean and cost-effective, but it also helps reduce mess and protect your portafilter from damage.

​

With portability at its core and a strong point-of-sale (POS) presence, it’s perfect for events, coffee carts, or small-space setups. More than just a practical tool, the Knock Out Buddy is an example of recycling best practice, supporting environmental sustainability and corporate social responsibility—a product that works hard while doing good.

​

Every feature, from no sweating to time savings and engagement-provoking design, has been thoughtfully developed to improve your workflow and your coffee experience. And we’re confident that beyond the many clear benefits, you’ll find your own unique reason to love it too.

​

​All you have to do is drop it into an empty coffee bag to start using it—and once it’s full, simply tape up the bag for tidy, hassle-free disposal.
