Anybody can make a cup of coffee, right? Well, not quite; and certainly not a good cup of coffee. To get it all right and make a steaming cup of delicious joe, you need to master some serious brewing skills. Whilst certain basic concepts need to mastered, the entire process can be made significantly easier with the use of appropriate coffee-making equipment. It is perfectly possible to get flawless coffee at the press of the button and we’ve made a small list of some of the best gadgets available to make that happen.

A Measuring Spoon that Doubles as a Bag Clip

We’re going to start with a small item that can do wonders for any coffee lover. This small gadget doubles as a measuring spoon and a steady clip for your coffee bag. When you brew your coffee, you can open the bag and use the same device to get the coffee grinds out and into the pot. Then, when you are done with it, you can simply put it back on the bag. It will keep your coffee in tip-top shape until the next time you use it, but it will also keep you from procrastinating. You will never leave the measuring cup unwashed because you need it to close the bag. Pretty impressive, right?

A printer for personalized latte art

We’re going to take it up a notch for this one. For the art fans amongst you, there exists a 3D printer that can turn any cup of coffee into an art statement. It can print out an impressive range of designs and images, leaving you with endless possibilities to impress your coffee-loving guests.  All you have to do is load the image, fill it up with water, coffee, and milk, and let the magic begin. At the press of a button, you can get a cup of custom-made coffee with the images you want. The world we live in!

A portable espresso maker

For espresso lovers who might want to have a perfect cuppa on the go, this type of device is an absolute lifesaver. Offerings like the Wacaco can make an impressive 18 bars of steady pressure, which makes it comparable to home espresso devices, only this one can put into your bag or backpack and take it with you, wherever you go. Something for the true coffee enthusiast, we can see this becoming one of those “don’t leave home without it” situations.

A Smart Coffee Grinder

As any coffee lover knows, freshly-ground coffee is the absolute best and it is an important factor to consider when brewing great coffee. However, not all grinders are created equal, and the size and quality of the grind play a fundamental role in making that perfect cup of coffee. With a smart grinder, you can get the most out of each type of coffee. You can select the type of grinds you want – for espresso, cold brew or Turkish coffee, and then get it ground fresh every single time. It is also large enough to fit more than just a few portions if you already have your heart set on a certain type of brewing method.

A Smart Pour-Over Coffee Brewer

Are you always confused about how much coffee you need to put in to get a good steady cup? Well, this all ends with the smart pour-over coffee brewer that comes with a built-in scale that shows you the ideal amount of coffee you need. It also shows you when the coffee is ready, maximizing the flavourful output of your beans.

A Collapsible Pour-Over System

There are a number of offerings for this type of device, but we’re particularly fond of the product by Kikkerland. They offer a flexible and collapsible metal casing that you can place right above your cup to make coffee. All you need is a filter, some coffee, and hot water. Place the filter in the holder and the coffee in the filter and pour the hot water over the coffee grinds.

Wait a few minutes for it to go down entirely, and then remove the casing from the cup and there you have it – tasty coffee on the go! As for the metal casing, once you’re done with it, collapse it and make it fit easily in your bag. A must have for any trip, right?

A Smart Travel Coffee Mug

This is exactly what you expect it to be – a travel coffee mug that you can control from your phone. It will keep your coffee heated at a specific temperature you assign in the app, making it a practical solution for anybody who’s in a hurry in the morning. Whether you like your coffee super hot or just lukewarm, this nifty gadget will keep your coffee exactly how you’d want it to be.

These tech gadgets are any coffee lover’s dream, as they enable us to celebrate the wonderful taste that coffee provides, any time of the day. By optimizing the coffee brewing process, flawless coffee will no longer be a chore, but something you can get at the touch of a button!
