The Friday Edit
The new regional edit, every Friday. Nothing else.
A manual-paddle GS3 anchors a US edit where control stays physical: handmade Danish ceramics, a modular filter station and four coffees ranging from a fruit-led Ethiopian natural to floral washed Gesha and Pacamara.
La Marzocco · Machines
A dual-boiler, saturated-group home espresso machine with a conical manual paddle for progressive pre-infusion and direct pressure control.
The GS3 MP brings saturated-group stability, separate boilers and a genuinely expressive conical paddle into a single-group format with a long service lineage.
A short regional edit of fresh coffees worth brewing now.

Onyx Coffee Lab · Coffee beans
Chiapas, Mexico · Washed · Light · yellow pear, chamomile, almond, vanilla blossom
Pepe Argüello’s washed Gesha pairs yellow pear and chamomile with almond and vanilla blossom; a delicate, floral option alongside the edition’s more fruit-heavy Ethiopian natural.

Onyx Coffee Lab · Coffee beans
Chalatenango, El Salvador · Washed · Ultra light · white grape, plum, rose, milk chocolate
Jorge Raul Rivera’s washed Pacamara brings white grape, plum and rose over milk-chocolate sweetness, with an ultra-light roast that keeps the floral detail prominent.
The objects making brewing more precise, more enjoyable or simply better looking.
MK Studio x Onyx · Manual brewing
A handmade Danish ceramic flat-bed dripper with a wide column, bubble geometry and five drain holes.
MK Studio’s hand-built geometry gives the flat bed a sculptural body while the five-hole base leaves enough room to tune flow with paper and grind.
MK Studio x Onyx · Accessories & oddities
A 500 ml handmade Danish ceramic carafe with a flared serving lip.
The companion carafe makes the edit feel like a complete table object rather than a loose brewer accessory, and its flared lip gives it a practical pour.
Black & White Coffee Roasters · Accessories & oddities
A made-to-order modular filter holder with options for papers, a C40, RDT tools and a scale garage.
A genuinely useful piece of counter architecture: filter storage becomes a configurable station instead of another loose container.
