Flate Barista Rack – wall shelf with three portafilter holders
Portafilters, tampers, cloths and milk pitchers have their own place on the wall next to the machine. The worktop stays clear.
The Barista Rack by Flate is made of 3 mm powder-coated steel with an oiled magnetic strip of European oak. Three holders for portafilters or tampers, two shelves and a towel rail. Made in the EU.
Features of the Flate Barista Rack
Towel rail
For the barista cloth. According to Flate, it can also be used to hang milk pitchers or additional hooks.
Large top shelf
For bean containers, coffee bags or larger pitchers.
Holders with non-slip rubber covers
For portafilters and tampers of all kinds. The rubber covers come fitted from the factory.
Magnetic wooden strip
Made of natural oak. Easy to remove for cleaning.
Shelf for everyday use
For milk pitchers, scales or cups. According to Flate, magnetic dosing rings can also be attached to the underside.
The details in everyday use
Made in the EU
According to Flate, every shelf is fairly made in the EU. The textured powder coating protects against wear and shows hardly any fingerprints.
Magnetically adjustable
Thanks to built-in magnets, the oiled oak strip holds at any position on the shelf. It acts as a spacer for the portafilters and keeps metal tools within reach.
Well thought out
Non-slip covers on the holders make sure the portafilters hang gently and securely.

Tip from the roastery: The top shelf has room for a bean container. Full-bodied and chocolatey with Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, maximum body without acidity with Very Nutty. If you want to discover a fruity profile, you will find it in Wild Peach. That is our recommendation, one of many.
