There’s three types of coffee drinkers. Group 1 is all about the caffeine. As long as it does the job of waking them up in the morning, they’re good with it. Group 2 is more about convenience and flavor. They love the kick, appreciate quality coffee but don’t want to spend all day making one cup of coffee. Then there’s Group 3. Group 3 doesn’t just love coffee, oh no, coffee is a lifestyle. They will go out of their way to find the best coffee accessories, and the most effective way to brew their prized beverage. Making coffee isn’t just a task, it’s an experience. And this is where my friend Justin lies. He loves his pour over coffee with high quality fair trade beans. He’s in the know about the latest and greatest ways to make coffee. So when I went to write this article of incredible coffee accessories, I of course asked him what he would put on the list. Needless to say, I got a long description back with lots of helpful suggestions that then prompted me to do a lot of research on how to brew coffee. You wouldn’t believe how many hipsters have YouTube videos of how to properly make the perfect cup of coffee. After narrowing down my research, I’ve found 15 contraptions and accessories that will make the perfect give for a loved one who falls into Categories 2 or 3 on the coffee spectrum. Let’s get sipping!
We are kicking off this list of incredible coffee accessories with the motherload of all coffee makers. This pricey machine screams quality and is sure to provide you with coffee, lattes and mochas for years to come.

I think this is my favorite item on this list. I am infamous for drinking 3 quarters of my cup of coffee and then forgetting about the rest until later. By the time I get back to it, it’s ice cold and gross. This invention seems to sympathize with my distracted sipping because you can actually warm up your coffee using your iWatch or iPhone! Pick your ideal temperature, and let it heat up!

This is not only a cup of coffee, this is a science project! Place the bottom glass on a stove top, just before the water is boiled, place the top glass on top. Once the water has evaorated into the top glass, add the coffee grinds. After 45 seconds, allow the coffee to filter down back into the bottom glass for the most tasty and snobby cup of coffee you’ve ever had. Snobby isn’t always bad, in fact, it usually tastes better.
