Rhino Coffee Gear

The Rhino Coffee Gear Range

With 88 products across eleven categories, the fastest way to find what you need is to use the type filter above the product grid. Here's an overview of what each category covers.

Milk Pitchers

Rhino's pitcher range is one of the most comprehensive available from a single barista brand. Three distinct lines cover every preference and use case. The Classic is a straightforward stainless steel pitcher — reliable, durable, and available in multiple sizes from 350ml to 1 litre. The Pro adds etched internal volume measurements, making it easier to pour a consistent milk volume for each drink without measuring separately. The Stealth uses a non-stick ceramic coating on the interior that makes milk release more cleanly, reduces protein adhesion, and makes the pitcher easier to rinse clean between steams — available in black, white and blue. A silicone handle cover is also available for any Rhino pitcher, providing heat insulation and grip when working quickly on a busy bar. See the Milk Pitchers collection for size guidance.

Scales

Three scales span the range from quick grinder dosing to full filter brew weighing. The Dosing Scale 1kg (0.1g resolution) is compact and fast-response — designed to sit under a grinder and dose espresso or filter coffee accurately. The Bench Scale 2kg (0.1g resolution) is a mid-size scale suited to espresso dosing and small batch brewing. The Brewing Scale 3kg (0.1g resolution) has a larger platform suited to full carafes and servers used in filter and batch brew workflows. All three are straightforward digital scales without timers or Bluetooth — practical, reliable tools rather than feature-laden brewing scales.

Tampers & Mats

The tamper range covers flat-base 58mm tampers in standard and self-levelling versions, plus a 58mm needle tamper (WDT tool) for puck preparation. Tamping mats include classic corner, corner upgraded, mini bench, portafilter, and double tamper configurations — all in rubber construction for counter protection and a stable tamping surface. See the Tampers & Mats collection for full detail on each model and when to use it.

Knock Boxes & Waste Bins

Knock boxes span from compact countertop bins for home use (Mini, standard, Deluxe stainless) through to knock chutes for bar-mounted or counter-edge installation (Square and Circular) and the Thumpa floor-standing tube range for high-volume commercial setups. Spare parts — bars, gaskets, rubber covers — are stocked for all models. See the Knock Boxes & Waste Bins collection for the full range.

Pitcher Rinsers

Rhino's pitcher rinser range is the most comprehensive stocked at Coffee Hit, running from the compact Rhino x Caffewerks Mini Rinser for home bars through to full 300mm and 600mm recessed units for permanent café installation. The Spin Jet valve system — Rhino's rotating water jet mechanism — is available as an upgrade for existing installations or built into the countertop and 600mm recessed units. The Pitcher Rinser Riser, hex grates, install kit and all spare valves and mechanisms are also stocked. See the Pitcher Rinsers collection for installation guidance and model comparison.

Thermometers

Four models cover every milk monitoring preference: a clip-on dial thermometer for continuous at-a-glance reading, a digital probe model for precise numerical readouts, the Accutemp stick-on strip for hands-free monitoring, and a calibration tool for checking and adjusting dial thermometer accuracy. See the Thermometers collection for a full comparison.

Barista Cloths & Brushes

The cleaning tools range covers daily surface maintenance across the entire espresso station: the Barista Cloth Set for steam wand wiping and general bar use, the Group Head Brush and spare brush heads for shot-to-shot shower screen cleaning, the Grinder and Bench Tidy Brush and spare bristles for sweeping dosing areas and counters, and the Steam Wand and Milk Frother Brush Set for cleaning the steam tip inside and out. The Grinder Burr Brass Brush for deep-clean burr disassembly is also stocked (currently sold out). See the Towels & Brushes collection for detail on each tool.

Cupping Tools

Rhino's cupping range covers the equipment used in professional coffee tasting and quality evaluation: cupping bowls, cupping spoons, and associated accessories. Used in coffee roasteries, cafés and training environments for sensory evaluation of coffee lots and blends.

Scales, Shot Pitchers & Other Accessories

The Shot Pitcher Dual Spout 80ml is a small stainless espresso shot glass with a dual-spout design for splitting a double shot into two cups simultaneously — a practical tool for speed on a busy bar. A compact hand grinder and an AeroPress are also listed in the Rhino collection alongside the full accessories range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Rhino Coffee Gear suitable for home use or is it just for cafés?

Both. Rhino's products are designed to professional café standards, but the majority of the range is equally well-suited to home espresso setups. Milk pitchers, tamping mats, thermometers, knock boxes and barista cloths are practical and proportionate tools for any home barista — they don't require a commercial setup to make sense. The larger pitcher rinsers (recessed models, Thumpa tubes) are primarily designed for café and bar installation; the Mini Rinser and countertop models are sized for home use. The scales are straightforward and practical for home dosing and brewing. The professional-grade build quality means Rhino products tend to outlast cheaper alternatives significantly, which makes them particularly good value over the long term even at a home scale.

What makes Rhino milk pitchers different from other brands?

Three things distinguish the Rhino pitcher range. First, the breadth of options — Classic, Pro (with etched measurements) and Stealth (non-stick ceramic coating) across multiple sizes gives genuine choice for different workflows and preferences rather than a single SKU in one size. Second, the consistency of quality — Rhino pitchers use food-grade stainless steel with gauge and spout geometry that has been refined through café use, and the build quality holds up to daily commercial use in a way that cheaper pitchers don't. Third, the Stealth non-stick coating is a genuine differentiator — it reduces milk protein adhesion noticeably, making pitchers easier to rinse between drinks and cleaner to maintain over time. The silicone handle cover is a small but useful accessory that makes rapid back-to-back steaming more comfortable.

Which Rhino scale should I buy?

The answer depends on how you're using it. For dosing coffee into a portafilter or filter dripper — where you need to weigh 15–20g accurately in a small footprint — the 1kg Dosing Scale is the right choice: it's compact, fast-responding, and resolves to 0.1g. For a general espresso station scale that handles both dosing and occasional batch weighing, the 2kg Bench Scale gives more headroom without being unwieldy. For filter and batch brew workflows where you're weighing full carafes or servers — where the scale needs a larger platform and a higher maximum weight — the 3kg Brewing Scale is the practical choice. All three resolve to 0.1g, so precision is consistent across the range; the differences are maximum capacity and platform size.

How does the Rhino Stealth pitcher differ from the Classic and Pro?

The Classic is a standard stainless steel pitcher — no coating, no markings, straightforward construction. The Pro is a Classic with etched internal volume measurements on the interior wall, making it easier to pour a consistent milk volume per drink without estimating. The Stealth uses a ceramic non-stick coating on the interior surface, which reduces the adhesion of milk proteins to the pitcher wall. In practice this means milk releases more completely when pouring, the pitcher is easier to rinse clean between drinks without scrubbing, and residue build-up over time is slower. The Stealth is the premium option for experienced baristas who steam milk repeatedly; the Pro is a practical upgrade from the Classic for anyone who wants a dosing reference; the Classic is the right starting point for anyone who just needs a solid, reliable pitcher at the best price.
