Preparing the Coffee
From grinding to brewing
I got this in May 2023 and I'm glad I did. It brews at a consistent temperature and pours the water over the grounds uniformly. Great hot coffee!
OXO Brew 8 Cup Coffee Maker, Stainless Steel,Black
This is my review of the OXO Brew 8-Cup coffee maker and more on why I got it.
OXO Brew 8 Cup Coffee Maker: Upgraded coffee experience - Mighty Bargain Hunter
I got this grinder at the same time as the OXO coffee maker. It was an upgrade to our hand grinder. This one grinds much easier and more reliably.
CUISINART DBM-8P1 Electric Burr Grinder
Yeah, I have a Keurig also! Sometimes I don't want to brew a whole pot, and that's what this is for. After getting the OXO and seeing how hot it brews, I realized that the Keurig does a good job of brewing hot coffee – more so than an inexpensive dri...

Nothing fancy about the filters I use, grab and go!

Drinking the Coffee

Stanley Classic Vacuum Insulated Bottle
We have several of these bad boys. Had them for a few years and you can just throw them in a backpack full of coffee and they'll stay sealed. Great vacuum. Also keeps the coffee hot for quite a while!

Buying the Coffee
Or grow your own, it doesn't matter
This is our go-to K-cup. It's a reliable favorite. It's cheaper with a Costco membership than through Amazon. We stock up when it's on sale (usually $5 off a box of 120).
Kirkland Organic Pacific Bold K-Cup Pods, 120ct
Gotta say that I was drawn in by the Super Bowl advertising with a Viking ship coming out of someone's mouth. It's great coffee nonetheless, haha!

Loving the Coffee
Shout it from the rooftops of the cafe
This one's just for fun but it dons our coffee station in our kitchen!

I have the black one. I get more compliments on this shirt than pretty much any other one I own. Probably because they know me!
