shotStopper
A new development board which enables brew-by-weight on your espresso machine, without the need for any screens or dials to distract from the original design of your espresso machine.
Each shotStopper is hand-assembled in the USA and tested on an espresso machine.
BATCH 4 UPDATE 3/18/25:
Thanks for all the interest and support! The shotStopper continues to spread across the globe and is improving thanks to the generous contributors on github and discord.
Batch 3 has been nearly depleted, and batch 4 is current in production, which will be restocked in mid-April.
Features
Automatically tares when the shot begins
Automatically starts and stops the timer on the scale
USB-C for updates, serial-out, and (optional) power
RGB connection status indicator
Bluetooth control for changing goal weight
Included Parts
The programmed V3.0 circuit board, with custom hardware and software for your specific espresso machine
A plastic half-case with double-sided tape to install in your espresso machine
High-temperature silicone cabling, custom made for your installation
Compatible Scales
Compatible Espresso Machines*
*The Linea Mini has a few different versions that requires different power configurations. If your machine is an older, pre-IoT version, it’s recommended to order the AC/DC power supply. These machines tend to struggle to provide enough DC current for the shotStopper.
