Behmor Connected Brewer

An SCAA-certified brewer, the Behmor Connected allows you to control temperature and bloom, and takes elevation into account. Its “pulse water delivery” mimics hand brewing and it can brew for up to eight people at a time – meaning you can make a coffee for the whole family on Christmas Day. Even better: you can set it brewing from your phone, and even save your favourite recipe on the app!

Acaia Lunar Waterproof Espresso Scales

When it comes to scales, this is the gadget to beat all gadgets. In fact, this is the second year in a row we’ve put it on our Christmas gift guide. It allows you to monitor weight, time, and flow-rate. What’s more, it fits into the tray of an espresso machine and  is waterproof. There’s no excuse to brew inconsistent espressos with this beautiful piece of equipment.

Eazytamp 5 Star Pro

When it comes to good coffee, consistency is key – and nowhere is this more evident than when tamping. Inconsistent pressure will lead to inconsistent water channelling, which in turn creates an inconsistent extraction. But this tamper is specifically designed to avoid uneven tamping. Gift it to a loved one who can’t abide sour or bitter notes in their espresso.

This automated pour over machine allows you to make up to ten cups in ten minutes, so no matter how many friends and family members your loved one has, they’ll be able to serve them all coffee without compromising on time spent catching up.
