Timemore Magic Cube Portafilter Stand

Perfect Your Espresso Puck Prep with the Timemore Magic Cube

The Timemore Magic Cube Portafilter Stand is a heavy-duty, silicone-wrapped solution designed to solve the most common frustration in espresso preparation: unstable tamping. Achieving a level, consistent tamp is the most important factor in preventing espresso channeling. The Magic Cube provides a rock-solid, horizontal foundation for your portafilter, ensuring that every shot you pull is professional-grade.

Universal Stability for All Portafilters

Whether you use a single-spouted, double-spouted, or bottomless (naked) portafilter, the Magic Cube is designed to fit. Its unique, multi-angled cutout securely cradles the portafilter head, keeping it perfectly level and parallel to the counter. This allows you to apply the full 30 lbs of tamping pressure vertically, ensuring a uniform puck density that is impossible to achieve when tamping on a flat, slippery countertop.

Heavy-Duty Silicone Construction

The "Magic Cube" is built with a weighted core for maximum stability and wrapped in a premium, food-grade silicone. The silicone exterior serves two purposes: it provides a non-slip grip that stays put on your workbench, and it protects your expensive portafilters and countertops from scratches and dents. The matte black finish is stain-resistant and easy to clean, fitting seamlessly into the modern, "tech-heavy" look of a high-end espresso station.

A Compact Workflow Essential

Space is often at a premium in a home coffee setup. The Magic Cube’s compact, square footprint makes it the perfect alternative to large, bulky tamping stations. It’s small enough to sit discreetly next to your grinder, yet heavy enough to handle the rigors of a professional café environment. By providing a dedicated, stable space for your puck prep, the Magic Cube streamlines your workflow and increases the repeatability of your espresso shots.
