Need Coffee Ideas - Secret Santa gift

[MrDangerPants]

Get a manual coffee grinder like the Hario Skerton. Perfect for the coffee aficionado that loves to grind while they're traveling or camping. Comes in a little more than your $35 budget but you can probably find it discounted somewhere during the holiday season.

Do they have an espresso machine? There are lots of great gadgets for that if they do. There are also some pretty good coffee related books -- think guides to different types of coffees, flavor profiles, etc.

$35, most definitely an aeropress. The best way to make coffee for under $50 imo - hell, even under $500

good beans and pour over can make fantastic coffee, IMO.

so, for my recommendation, i submit the snow peak pour over coffee thingie. beautifully made, stores super conveniently and is perfect for travel or camping...

Oooh! Local beans can't hurt.


Tectonic Coffee (if she likes light roasts their Drift is awesome) as well as Bicycle Coffee Company are both local roasters whose stuff is good.

(and I"m a bit of a snob. ok i'm a snob)

ALSO

There's a Japanese hi-fi cafe called In Sheep's Clothing in DTLA where they have super high end audio equipment and super high end single origin coffee:
