Best gifts for the coffee lover | Christmas Gift Guide

Coffee Lover Gift Guide

Do you have someone on your Christmas gift list who loves coffee? Or maybe just someone who needs an extra pick me up right now? Here are some of our favorite gifts for the coffee lover. Add on a pound of their favorite coffee or a gift card to their favorite coffee shop for an extra special treat.

Top rated coffee and espresso makers:

Standard coffee pot — Cuisinart, Mr. Coffee, or Krups are the most popular and affordable drip coffee makers. Costco usually has a few decent coffeemakers or watch for Black Friday deals from other retailers.

Keurig K-Duo Coffee Maker — This coffee pot lets you brew one cup or 12 with a traditional drip option. This is perfect for when you have company and want more than a single cup!

French Press Coffeemaker — A staple for coffee purists. Add a pound of Stumptown coffee and make sure you have it ground specifically for French Press.

AeroPress Coffee and Espresso Maker — Our favorite little espresso and coffee maker. Perfect for travel or at home. You can reuse the filters (just rinse and dry them between uses), so you don’t need to purchase extras for a number of years.

This Classic pour-over brewer is known to make some very good coffee too and it’s super affordable.

Nespresso Inissia Espresso Maker — If you have someone on your list that is an espresso fan consider buying them the Nespresso. They will not only be saving money but the shots it brews are delicious. They can even make their own Caramel Macchiatos.

If you love cold brew but hate the mess of using a cheese cloth to strain the grounds, consider grabbing this highly-rated Bodum Cold Brew Coffee Maker. Super simple little container, but includes a filter for straining the grounds. So delicious during the warmer months, use it to make a homemade iced latte or mocha.

Coffee Accessories:

PowerLix Milk Frother — This gives lattes that extra special froth. I know you can buy one at IKEA for $3.99 but if you’re looking for something a bit more fancy this one gets really good reviews.

OXO Conical Burr Coffee Grinder — I bought this for my parents last year as they buy the gigantic bags at Costco and grind their own. Best gift I’ve ever given them. This grinder has 15 custom grind settings, which is essential to making quality espresso/lattes or our delicious iced lattes. The drip coffee grind you get in already-ground drip coffee in the store will not do. Trust me on this one.

Special coffee mug — Anthropologie has beautiful mugs that would make a very special gift (these also make great teacher gifts!), but if you’d rather go the hilarious route, check out the world’s largest coffee mug.

Tervis Travel Tumbler — If the coffee lover on your list does any sort of traveling, takes a coffee to work in the morning, goes to outdoor events on the weekend and likes to take coffee, basically takes coffee ANYWHERE, these Tervis tumblers are a must! They are high quality, thick enough to keep coffee warm but hands cool and they have TONS of designs. Favorite sports teams, trendy designs, characters and more.

Coffee Canister — Make sure they are storing the coffee properly with something like this BlinkOne Airtight Coffee Canister. The unique one-way valve preserves freshness of whole, roasted and ground coffee beans. As soon as coffee is exposed to air, it can start to lose its flavor and go bitter.

Coffee Skin Care and Extras:

LUSH Cup O’ Coffee Face and Body Mask — If your coffee lover has just everything they could ever need, consider something a little outside the box. Made with ground coffee beans, glycerin and coriander seed oil, this mask deeply cleanses and buffs to reveal glowing skin underneath.

Coffee Christmas ornament — Personalized Christmas ornaments are SUCH a fun gift! This adorable travel coffee tumbler would be perfect for someone always on the go. Starbucks often has really cute ornaments in store, but grab them quickly because they do sell out!

Coffee Bath Bomb — How fun are these?! The link shows several different sizes, styles and price points.

You could also go the homemade route and whip them up a batch of Homemade Coffee Creamer. Put it in a fun glass pitcher and add a half pound of their favorite coffee!
