I need some holiday gift ideas (that I will probably gift to myself as well)!

    • Aeropress for the coffee people who want something easy to store and clean.

    • Portable Bluetooth speaker. I have the Anker Soundcore 2, and use it all the time in my studio apartment.

    • Deli containers for food storage.

    • Electric mixer. It will save you a lot of strain if you often mix by hand.

    • Water filtration system of your choice. I use ZeroWater.

    • Humidifier for those dry months.

    • PC gamer? Use emulators for older console games? Get an Xbox controller for those non mouse and keyboard games (Journey et. al were on sale recently).

    • Canister vacuum cleaner. I use Bissell Zing (about $75), but they’re better than bagless vacuums.

    • Plants for literal quality of life. https://www.thespruce.com/easy-houseplants-hard-to-kill-4141665

      I cannot recommend the Aeropress enough. It makes such great coffee at its price point. Its quicker and less wasteful than a lot of other popular single cup options coughKeurigcough

        Yes, I love my aeropress!! With enough dialing in I can usually make a better cup of coffee with a pourover setup that better expresses the differences of specific beans. But the aeropress makes a darn good cup of coffee every time without going through all that hassle. I use mine almost daily.

          I have had several french presses, and I can say with certainty that the Aeropress is way easier to make a great cup of coffee with than any french press I have tried.

          Can you make great coffee with french press? Absolutely! But it requires the proper grind, water temp, and timing it to prevent over or under extraction. Aeropress is a lot more forgiving.

      Deli containers are a game changer. Never have to search for a lid that fits.
