MHW-3Bomber Smooth Espresso Chilling Ball w Stand: Silver

Experience espresso clarity with the MHW Smooth Espresso Chilling Ball with Stand: Silver – featuring a 30mm reusable SUS304 chilling ball and anti-slip stand for controlled cooling.

Cool with Precision for Aroma-Rich Espresso

The MHW Smooth Espresso Chilling Ball with Stand: Silver offers a minimalist way to chill your espresso shot directly at extraction. By lowering the temperature of the first drops without dilution, it enhances aroma retention, reduces bitterness, and brings out cleaner flavours – perfect for iced espresso or experimental chilled recipes.

How It Works

Freeze the 30mm chilling ball for 3 to 4 hours. During brewing, place it on the silver-finished aluminium stand beneath your espresso spout. Use a bottomless or split portafilter to align the stream near the ball’s centre. The chilled ball acts as a thermal sink, instantly dropping the temperature and locking in the espresso’s aromatic compounds.
