FLATE Universal Shelf – minimalist wall shelf for beans, cups and accessories
The bean jar, the hand grinder, two cups: on the FLATE Universal Shelf next to your espresso machine sits everything you need every day, and your counter stays clear.
FLATE also calls this shelf the Storage Shelf. It is made of 3 mm powder-coated steel and complements the FLATE Barista Rack and the Barista Station, but also works on its own, at home or in the office. Mounting hardware is included.
Features of the FLATE Universal Shelf
Combinable
The shelf pairs with the FLATE barista racks when you need extra space for portafilters, tampers or brushes.
Sturdy and practical
The shelf is made of solid, 3 mm thick, powder-coated steel. Because the steel is magnetic, magnetic accessories such as a dosing ring stick directly to the shelf.

Tip from the roastery: The jar on the shelf is the place for fresh beans. For most people we recommend Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, for maximum body without acidity Very Nutty. If you like it fruity, discover Wild Peach. That is our recommendation, one of many.
