We have the Breville Barista Express… can't go back! Having our own seems bougie, but we have ended up saving money over the years by buying less coffees out!

The french press is one of the easiest and inexpensive ways to make a great coffee at home! Use a medium-large grind on your beans, add water (190*f) to the metal ring at the top, stir, wait 4 minutes, and then press!

The pour over is a classic home brew coffee. You can get a simple pour over to set on top of your mug, or invest in a chemex for the beauty and taste of a fantastic pour over.

For making a good espresso shot - proper tamping is key! I like using a spring loading one for an even press.

I love having this little double wall glass to pull an espresso shot. My boys love iced lattes, so this little glass makes it easy to pull and pour into their mason jars.

A dosing funnel helps the ground beans stay where they belong and not spill and get wasted. Make sure to get one that is compatable with your espresso machine!

Good coffee starts with good beans! We get our beans from Spearhead Coffee Roasters. It is also one of our fav coffee shops to go to! Try their Miel Latte when you go in.

I can't live without my french press to-go cup! I work at 7am - so making this right before I go to work means i have a great cup of coffee to start my day - and it stays hot until the last drop.
