Rhinowares Barista Cloth Set

This is an ideal set of cloths for the home barista (and probably rather useful for the professional barista too, but I'm not a professional so don't really have the authority to make such as statement!). The set includes 2 small blue cloths, a bigger black cloth and an even bigger brown one (the brown one comes with a removable clip in case you want to attach it to your belt etc). The blue cloths are for cleaning your milk steaming wand. They are great! I had a dried milk mark on my wand for weeks, I couldn't shift it at all - even with a pan scourer, I would never usually use something so harsh on the lovely chrome of my coffee machine but I was getting desperate! Anyway, when my new barista cloth set arrived I gave the wand a gentle wipe with a damp blue cloth and it came right off. Brilliant! The brown cloth is for the general wiping of the portafilter and other general use items which seem to get coffee grinds stuck to them. The black one is for wiping down the machine itself and the surrounding work top. The colour coding is ideal so you can keep everything nice and hygienic - good to keep the milk cloth separate and also to ensure you're not just spreading bits of old coffee around when you think you're cleaning. They wash well - I put all of them in the washing machine together and they are nicely colour fast so no danger of ruining the light blue ones the first time you wash them. The packet does recommend washing them without fabric conditioner which is a little bit annoying because (for me) that means putting them in a wash by themselves, but it's not that big of a deal - I just use the 30 minute fast wash cycle on my machine and then leave them to dry on the radiator. I'm quite passionate about my coffee addiction, if you're the same you might find this list helpful / interesting :-) http://amzn.eu/gyvvWu4

Great quality cloths; the brown one is huge and comes with a clip to hang it up. The navy blue is a medium size and the lighter blue ones are small and all good for coffee machine uses.

Does the job

Great set. Works well.

Very pleased good product.

This is a really good set for any home barista. The cloths are very absorbent and high quality, leaving my espresso machine clean after every drink. They dry really well and the design is really smart. A really effective set and good price also!

A nice idea but they stain very easily and do not wash well.

Love then do the job and really good quality
