I was looking at getting a new knock box and noticed Amazon offers a subscription option. Have I been using my knock box wrong, emptying it each day like some slob, when the right way is to get a new one each week or month when it’s full?

I can only afford cheap plastic container, i buy bulk and throw away when full
I think that should be your butlers job, really
Yeah you gotta check the Knock Rating. That one has a knock rating of 10, you’ll get 10 good knocks out of it then you replace.
We all just base our subscriptions around our TKPW (total knocks per week).
I personally have my butler dispose of the knockbox and contents and he then drives out and buys a new one
My knock box is 20years old. I keep thinking o should get a new one but it literally functions just the same as 20 years ago.
Seriously though, I coffee on a butcher block table, everything’s a knock box. Highly recommend
I have a very large knock box. I put a bag in it and when it’s full I throw out the bag. My city must be full of coffee enjoyers because they have arranged garbage men to pick this full bag up every week!
I just keep a trash bin nearby, knock the grounds directly in & throw it out when it stinks/fills
They offered me a similar subscribe and save on a rather expensive joystick / flight controller, suggesting “every 6 weeks” which I thought didn’t suggest much faith in the product.
BTW I just went to a new knockbox with a removable bar, only cheap, but it’s made emptying it and cleaning it so much simpler as it’s easier to get a brush in there etc

It means the item is not often returned.
Cheaper to subscribe if you go through them like I do
Amazon must have read that post from that ceramic artist.
Knock knock
I keep a year’s supply of knock boxes in one of the spare barns. I’ve instructed my butler that they are single use only before they are taken to landfill
