Espresso Machine Cup Tray Protective Covers – by Brewspire, made to fit each machine model
The cups sit on the machine's cup tray and warm up. The Brewspire protective cover fits precisely on the cup tray, dampens the clinking when you set a cup down and protects the metal from scratches.
It is made from a vegan leather alternative (PU leather) of the kind Brewspire says is also used in the automotive sector, is 2 mm thick and is custom-made for each machine model. The manufacturer is Brewspire GmbH in Alzenau, Germany. You can buy the protective covers in Switzerland from us online or in Bern and Zurich.
Features of the protective cover
Protects against scratches and clinking
The cover sits between the cups and the tray. The stainless steel tray stays free of scratches, and the cups no longer clink on the metal when you set them down.
Free of creases and waves
According to Brewspire, the 2 mm material thickness ensures that the cover lies on the cup tray without creases or waves.
Lets heat through
The hole pattern is matched exactly to the cup tray of each model. That is why the cups on the machine are preheated as usual.
Washable and easy to care for
The material is washable and hard-wearing. A damp cloth is all it takes to clean it.
The details in everyday use
Made for specific machines
Each cover is made for a specific machine model. On many models, the railing that surrounds the cover keeps it from slipping.
Adhesive dots for extra hold
Alternatively, the cover is attached to the cup tray with the included adhesive dots. According to Brewspire, the adhesive dots can be removed from the stainless steel and from the cover without leaving residue.

Tip from the roastery: For dense, sweet espresso from a prewarmed cup, we recommend Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight. If you're looking for maximum body without acidity, go for Very Nutty. For a fruity experience, there's Wild Peach. Any bean you enjoy works. This is our recommendation, one of many.
