Holiday Gifts for Coffee Lovers
Your friend or family member will be thrilled to receive one of these thoughtful, coffee-themed gifts. Who knows, they might even brew you a cup of their at-home specialty drink.
Equipment and Glassware:
AeroPress in fun new colors: AeroPress has just added a rainbow of colors for its original glass single cup coffee maker. Your coffee-loving friend or family member will love how it looks on the shelf in their favorite shade!
Yeti French Press: We all know Yeti is top tier in the thermos world. But did you know they introduced a line of French Presses this year? It’s a major step in design with better insulation and a precision laser cut hole filter for better flavor and clarity of the coffee. Plus, it comes in new seasonal colors with a customization option.
Yeti Pour Over: This brand new Yeti insulated Pour Over just dropped a few days before the writing of this article and we are really excited about it (especially for travel!)
Bonavita 8 Cup Drip Coffee Machine: This coffee brewer is SCA Certified and will delight any recipient. It’s the best quality home brewer within a reasonable price point.
Target Coffee-Themed Ornaments: In the spirit of decorating, gift your loved one these snazzy glass blown, coffee-themed ornaments!
Pumpkin Spice Holy Kakow syrup: We love the Holy Kakow brand as it’s completely organic with no artificial flavorings. The coffee lover in your life can enhance their at-home drinks with this limited seasonal offering!
Huckleberry Roasters Instant Coffee: This is our personal favorite instant coffee option, and it comes in handy while traveling to avoid the coffee scene at gas stations, airplanes, hotels, or the in-laws’. It can also be used in cocktails like espresso martinis, Irish coffees, and old fashioneds.

Mahlkoenig Coffee Grinder LEGO-style set: The brand made a brick set, similar to LEGO, for the classic EK43 coffee bean grinder. It doesn’t get more niche than that.

Holiday Gifts for Your Coffee Shop
The end of the year is a good time to make investments in your coffee shop, especially if you can find discounts or have extra budget to use. Here are some of our favorite pieces of equipment right now.
St. Anthony’s Levy Precision Espresso Tamping Tool: Up your coffee shop’s espresso game and delight your baristas with this high quality espresso tamper. Crafted individually by hand, it’s meant to improve extraction and make espresso prep easier.
St. Anthony’s BT Wedge Espresso Preparation Distribution Tool: If you’ve taken our classes, you’ll recognize this one. It will go along with your precision tamping tool. It’s perfect for your coffee shop or at home, as long as you have a 58mm portafilter basket inner diameter.

Finally, if you have an aspiring coffee shop owner in your life who’s ready to pursue their dream, you can help them take the first step with a gift certificate to Texas Coffee School. We offer a number of coffee classes catered to Coffeepreneurs® along every step of the journey. Simply choose the gift certificate you’d like to give, and watch the recipient’s eyes light up.
