I’m not confident about you. But, coffee and tea have been keeping many of us sane during these strange, not-so-wonderful times. Aside from the caffeine energy boost, drinking hot liquids can be relaxing, while drinking iced coffee or tea can be very refreshing.
It’s for those of us who take it with caffeine. If you’re a fellow enthusiast, we hope you’ll enjoy perusing some of the gadgets we use for our daily infusions.
If you aren’t, perhaps this will inspire you to try something new. So, before you look for the best smart cam, let’s know more about this concern.
Hario V60 Ceramic Coffee Dripper
It began taking me a while to get past the notion that I didn’t need a ton of expensive equipment to make a good cup of coffee. That changed when I discovered some of my favorite coffee shops.
They have prepared each cup fresh pour-over style using a simple drip filter. At best, it tastes nearly identical to how coffee smells. So I spent about $20 on a Hario V60 ceramic drip filter in the hopes of reproducing the results at home.
And I couldn’t be happier with each cup I drink. I’ve had great success with Stumptown’s single-origin El Injerto Bourbon Guatemalan coffee. But, any good coffee beans will produce a good cup.
Fellow’s Stagg KEG Electric Kettle
Let us start by saying that you can get tech products online like electric kettle for boiling water. It’s even if you’re not trying to improve your coffee game. This is far more useful than you might think to have a dedicated device for quickly producing extremely hot water.
Let me also point out that paying $149 for an electric kettle is objectively insane. And, this keeps you at risk of being labeled a coffee snob. However, if you can afford it, the Stagg EKG is a lovely kettle.
It has just the right controls, and it’s a simple knob for adjusting temperature that also functions as an on/off button. Also, it comes with a timer when long-pressed.
Organic Cotton Cold Brew Filter Bag
I used it to render cold brew inefficiently. After months of finding coffee grounds in my coffee, I decided to try this inexpensive alternative. And it completely transformed my cold brew game.
Mesh sieves are no longer used to filter my brews. After 12–24 hours of steeping, I remove the bag, and presto is a great, ground-free cold brew. I used to be a summer-only cold brew drinker.
But, after incorporating this bag into my routine, I believe cold brew season will last much longer than it has in the past.
The Mug
I like stylish mugs and drink a lot of tea in the morning. East Fork’s handmade mug, dubbed “The Mug,” has recently become my favorite. It’s a delightful, good-looking way to enjoy your favorite hot beverage.
Is it expensive at $36? Yes. Is it functionally equivalent to a mug that costs one-sixth the price? Yes, as well. However, the clay is thick and heavy, keeping my tea warm and my hands from getting burned.
With smooth, rounded edges and a sturdy handle, the design is lovely. And the speckled glazes look fantastic (especially in the brighter, seasonal colors).
