Espresso tamping station designed for the KitchenAid Semi-Automatic Espresso accessories solid wood

Are your espresso accessories all in one place? Are they ready to start making that cup of cappuccino for you?

My wife lives by the adage, “A place for everything and everything in its place.” With that in mind, I created this accessory holder for the items that came with my KitchenAid Semi-Automatic espresso maker. There are fitted spaces for the portafilter, filter baskets, milk jug, tamper, and coffee scoop.

It is made from a solid block of African mahogany. A decorative depiction of espresso beans is engraved on the top and filled with black resin. The entire station is then soaked in a mineral oil and beeswax finish. Finally a coat of beeswax is rubbed in and buffed on the top. This will give a food-safe and fairly durable protection. If it ever starts looking dull or pale, add some mineral oil or other cutting board oil to the station to bring back the new look.

Even though I designed this with a particular espresso machine with a 58mm portafilter in mind, I am happy to make small tweaks so you get exactly what you are looking for. Just reach out to me before ordering and I will work with you. Also, if you want something different engraved on top, just ask.

Approximate size 8” x 7-1/2” x 1-1/2”
