Imagine a French Press and a thermos combined into one beautiful travel solution. You would get the Espro Travel Press. Highlighted by the SCAA as the best new consumer product of 2015, the Espro Travel Press perfects the art of portable coffee. When used as a French Press, you can brew up to 10 oz of coffee that you can take anywhere. It uses the same dual filter system you would find in Espro's standard press, as well, meaning brewed coffee will be filtered 9 to 12 times finer than a regular French Press. That's smooth.
$40.00
When French Presses come to mind, it's impossible to think of anything but Bodum. Bodum paved the way for the French Presses with timeless designs and proven workmanship. The Shiny Chambord carries that torch today. The Bodum Chambord 8 cup 34oz French Press Coffee Maker is the classic French press coffee maker designed in the 1950s and emulates the roof line of the famed Chambord Estate. The steel frame and lid are chrome-plated in a multi-coating process that produces a tough, durable finish. Gifting this to any coffee lover is to give them a piece of history.
For brewing coffee you'll thank yourself for getting a high quality burr coffee grinder. And for drip style coffee, you'll thank yourself even more for getting a Technivorm.
$149.95
Baratza produces incredibly popular coffee and espresso grinders, and the Encore is no exception. It's loved by many, and its value is without equal. The Baratza Encore uses 40 mm conical burrs and 40 grind settings for excellent control and consistency. It grinds quietly, and the low torque motor helps protect against heat transfer and static build up in the grounds. If you're buying for someone who loves drip style coffee, French Press, Pour Over, or similar, they'll love having an Encore handy.

A strong alternative to the Encore is the KM4 TT from Technivorm. When it comes to brewing drip-style coffee, Technivorm is a master, and it all starts with a good grinder.

The KM4 TT offers minimal heat transfer and uniform grind as well, all within a durable aluminum housing. Plus, the grinding chamber is fan-cooled, further minimizing heat transfer while grinding coffee and keeping those precious flavors unchanged.
Of course, nothing matters unless you start with great coffee beans. Below you'll find some of our most popular coffee that have cemented themselves as all-time customer favorites.
