The coffee lifestyle is always one of excess. You buy a French press and you realize you want a Moka pot. You buy a Moka pot and you feel like owning a Chemex. Buy the Chemex and you’re a hop skip and jump away from actually owning a full-blown espresso machine. After months of being a true-blue coffee addict, you realize you just want a Nespresso machine that brews your coffee in seconds. But now that you’ve settled on your machine of choice you’re presented with another instance of excesses – coffee pods. You want to try them all, like a caffeinated Pokémon trainer wanting to catch them all… but after buying multiple machines and contraptions, you’re out of shelf space. Whoops…
That’s where the folks at Joseph Joseph come in with their genius under-shelf coffee drawer – a kitchen accessory that attaches to your existing shelf system, giving you yet one more drawer for your precious pod collection. Attaching to the shelf itself, the CupboardStore
presents you with 6 rows of pod storage, letting you stash 30 pods in an organized manner so you have your month’s coffee haul sorted without cluttering your kitchen space.
Designer: Joseph Joseph
The CupboardStore coffee pod drawer is a nifty retrofittable drawer that fixes to the bottom of any shelf over 11 inches (28cm) wide with a maximum thickness of 0.75 inches or 2cm. 3M sticky tape holds the drawer in place, ensuring it doesn’t pop off while you’re opening or closing the thing, and 6 columns let you neatly organize all your pods perfectly.
It’s worth noting that the drawer is only optimized to store Nespresso Original pods, so it won’t work with the larger Vertuo or Dolce Gusto line of pods. Keurig pods won’t fit too, so you’re sort of limited in your options. However, given that Nespresso’s Original line is one of the most popular pods out there, the Joseph Joseph CupboardStore will likely have a pretty large target audience.
The CupboardStore isn’t a one-off product, Joseph Joseph’s actually turned it into a series of different under-shelf storage solutions that do everything from hold cleaning supplies to coffee pods to even a dedicated spice rack for all the extra spice blends you inevitably pick up at Trader Joe’s out of sheer temptation (how many Taco seasonings is too many??)
