Coffee-Related Gifts for the Caffeinated
Everybody knows someone who gets the jitters if they don’t get their daily fix of caffeine – like me you can tell by the number of coffee posts on my blog! If you don’t know this person, I hate to break it to you, but you are this person. While some people can be difficult to buy for, coffee fanatics couldn’t be more simple to please. With a plethora of coffee-related accessories on the market, there’s no shortage of options for those wanting to gift something special to their loved ones.
Let’s have a look at 5 coffee-related gifts.
Coffee Grinder
Most devout coffee connoisseurs will agree that buying whole coffee beans and grinding them yourself is the best way to make coffee. Coffee grinders today have a vast array of features that can improve the taste of your coffee, from being air-tight to having UV filters that prevent coffee beans from being negatively affected by sunlight. Investing in a good-quality, electronic coffee grinder can be the saving grace of that first morning cup of coffee.
Coffee Jug
A beautiful coffee jug is the kind of gift that doesn’t have to be all about the coffee-drinker themselves. Acting as both a practical gift and a nice piece of décor, coffee jugs come in all types of styles, functions, and sizes. Some of the most beautiful ones you could find are antique silver coffee jugs from the origins of coffee-drinking. Antiques like these look great decorating a space, but can also still be used to pour out a brew for you and some guests if you’re looking to feel fancy.
Bean Scoop
This gift is great because it has use for everyone on the spectrum of coffee-drinking. Whether you’re doling out instant coffee, pre-ground beans, or fresh beans ready to be ground, a measuring scoop is essential to ensuring consistent quality levels. If you look around, you’re sure to find a variety of scoops that also serve as bag clips to keep bags of coffee fresh and air-tight. This is the kind of gift that people frequently don’t think about buying for themselves, but can improve their lives tenfold.
Travel Mug
A travel mug is the type of thing that most people have at least one of lying around in a drawer somewhere. They tend to leak or break, but we can’t ever seem to just let go of them, and they end up rolling around in the door endlessly (at least, that’s what most of mine do). Buying someone a brand new, great quality travel mug is basically an invitation to go full Marie-Kondo and throw out all those old ones that certainly don’t spark joy anymore. A good-quality travel mug should ideally be stainless steel and dishwasher safe, ensuring it can get a good amount of usage with minimum hassle.
Bean Container
Coffee beans are surprisingly delicate creatures. They react negatively to too much exposure to light or air. Clever coffee-loving creators have designed a variety of coffee canisters that combat this problem, however, so there’s no need to fret. These specially-designed coffee bean storage solutions are made to be air-tight, keeping your beans fresher for longer. What more could a cover lover ask for? The knowledge that your cup of coffee will taste consistently great even as the beans get older is all the reassurance you could need to know that this gift is worth giving.
Coffee Scrub
Why not introduce the coffee obsessive in your life to coffee-infused skincare! Coffee actually brings a remarkable number of benefits to your skin, being jam-packed with skin-loving ingredients. This includes antioxidants such as Vitamin E, which soothes, moisturises, and protects your skin. Caffeine is also an anti-inflammatory, helping to reduce redness and puffiness. It can even help reduce the appearance of cellulite. So why not treat your coffee-loving friend to a delightful coffee face scrub.
Coffee is almost like a universal language, and in giving a coffee-related gift, you can communicate in that language to your loved ones and let them know how you feel. Check out your options, and even browse around for other coffee-oriented gifts, because there are boundless options available. From cream and sugar sets, to coffee thermometers (yes, that’s a thing), specialised mugs and more, there is essentially no end to how much you can tailor someone’s coffee experience to them. Happy gifting!
