Wiedemann Barista Brush Smoked Oak – cleaning brush with a dark wooden handle
The dark handle rests next to the grinder, almost like a piece of furniture. One sweep over the spout and the portafilter rim, and the loose coffee grounds are gone before they settle.
Wiedemann makes the brush in its Manufaktur in Baienfurt, Germany. The handle is dark smoked oak, treated by hand with organic hard oil. The grain makes every piece a little different.
The oiled wood tolerates occasional water, but not regular moisture. A dry wipe is enough. Whether you clean after every shot or once in the evening is up to you. Our opinion is one of many.

Tip from the roastery: A clean grinder spout lets the bean speak. If you like it full-bodied and chocolatey, you'll find that in Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight; if you're looking for maximum body without acidity, in Very Nutty. This is our recommendation, one of many.
