Flate Magnetic Barista Towel – within reach at the machine
A splash of milk on the steam wand, a drop on the portafilter – and the towel hangs right where you need it. The Flate Magnetic Barista Towel sticks magnetically to the machine or the barista shelf.
A neodymium magnet sits in a soft silicone badge on the corner of the towel and holds to magnetic surfaces without leaving scratches. The extra heavy 500 g/m² waffle microfibre soaks up milk residue, water spots and coffee grounds and cleans the steam wand, portafilter and machine without smearing. The manufacturer is Flate.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the towel stick to the machine?
Via a neodymium magnet in a silicone corner that holds to magnetic surfaces without scratching. There's also a hanging loop as an alternative.
How big is the towel?
About 32 × 32 cm.
How do I wash it?
At 30 °C in the washing machine, without fabric softener and not in the tumble dryer.
How fast do you deliver?
Can be ordered directly online, delivery throughout Switzerland and to Liechtenstein in 2–4 working days. Click & Collect available in Bern and Zürich Oerlikon.
What does waffle structure mean?
The waffle weave is created by raised threads. According to Flate, this makes it particularly absorbent and lint-free. In conventional microfibre cloths with a loop weave, coffee residue and dirt build up more quickly.
Tip from the roastery: A clean portafilter is where every shot begins. For full body and chocolate notes, try Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight; for maximum body without acidity, Very Nutty. If you'd like to discover a fruity profile, you'll find it in Wild Peach. That is our recommendation, one of many.
