Rhino Thumpa Replacement Rod & Rubber Sleeve
The dull thud against the rim, the puck that drops free, the next espresso already waiting – your Rhino Thumpa handles this move hundreds of times a day. Eventually it shows: the rod dulls, the rubber sleeve cracks. Both swap out in seconds, no tools required.
The replacement rod is made from impact-resistant plastic, and the rubber sleeve cushions the impact even further – together they take the edge off daily knocking, strike after strike.

Roastery Tip
When the next shot is up: our main recommendation for the vast majority is Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight – dense, aromatic, full-bodied. If you want maximum body with zero acidity, reach for Very Nutty. And if you're in the mood for a fruity experience, discover Wild Peach as a lively side note. That's our recommendation – one of many.
