Normcore Blind Shaker 58 mm (Dosing Cup)

Precision Meets Consistency

The Normcore Blind Shaker 58 mm (Dosing Cup) was designed to solve one of the biggest coffee problems — uneven grind distribution.

By shaking your grounds for a few seconds, the particles mix evenly, reducing channeling in espresso and improving bloom and flow in pour-over brews.

Made from matte black anodized aluminum, it’s both light and sturdy, with an integrated magnetic base that locks onto your 58 mm portafilter for espresso or holds steady on any flat surface when preparing filter brews.

When not shaking, it functions perfectly as a magnetic dosing cup or funnel, letting you transfer grinds cleanly from your grinder to your portafilter or filter dripper.

You can even stack multiple cups magnetically for compact storage.
