I love coffee.  I really love good coffee.  I have enjoyed learning everything I can about makeing the perfect shot, or pour over, or even a French press.  I continue to build this list with more things from Flair and other things I find useful to have for makeing coffee a great experience.

This is one of the best grinders I have ever used.  It allows me to get great fine grinds for proper espresso extraction.  It is adjustable to more course grinds for pour overs or machine use.  Easy to clean as well.

I absolutely love using this manual press espresso machine.  It is easy to use and there are no pumps to break down after just a few years.  You can be creative with each shot of espresso you pull. Super easy to clean and it looks great sitting on your coffee bar.

A must have for pulling the perfect shot of espresso.  This scale has a timer that will start once the first drop hits the scale which helps take out the guess work of hitting the start button at the right time.  The charge last for a very long time.

This will be my next purchase.  I have been trying to move away from anything that uses pumps or motors to make my perfect espresso.  I have reviewed many “no pump” steamers and this will be my go to.  I can’t wait to get mine.  I will leave a short comment once I have used a few time.

I love my handheld Flair grinder, but I have to say, if you need to make more than one or two espresso shots, grinding by hand is sort of a workout.  The tower allows you to use the higher quality hand grinder and gives it power, without emptying your bank account.

I have been loving this new kettle.  The controls are easy to use and it keeps the water at the temperature I set it to with out having to reset.  I pours smoothly and very controlled.

My daughter goes on a mission trip every year.  She absolutely loves the coffee that is grown there.  She always brings back locally sourced coffee from that area.  It truly is amazing coffee.  This is a great way to get coffee from local Equadorian farms delivered to your home.

This induction plate heats up the water quickly.  I use this more the flair steam wizard, because my stove top put off so much heat, it made the handles hot.  This method of heating does not use a hot surface, but magnetic energy.  You just have to make sure your cookware of kettle is magnetic.

This is the perfect size to seam milk for a latte or cappuccino.  It is just the right size to hold while steaming.  It also looks nice, so you could add some creamer have it with your coffee during a party.
