coffee machines
The Breville Barista Express is one of them our top picks for high-end espresso machines with a built-in grinder. It’s expensive, but it does everything. It includes a grinder for the fine, consistent grind you need for great espresso, and combines that with the renowned Breville build quality. This machine is built like a tank. The exterior is stainless steel, the knobs and knobs all feel solid and durable. It’s like the Cuisinart Stand Mixer of espresso machines, expensive but built to last.
Sometimes you just need a plain old automatic coffee maker, and one of our favorites is the Hamilton Beach 2-Way. It’s a standard drip coffee machine, but also has a secondary spout for brewing a single cup of coffee (and it even fits into most travel mugs so you can put your mug there the night before work). It is well made for its price and makes good coffee, no bells or whistles here.
Cuisinart’s programmable coffee maker is another good option if you’re looking for a solid daily driver for brewing a standard cup of coffee. The automatic features work great, making it super easy to set everything up the night before. One of my favorite things about this type of coffee maker is the way it fills your home with the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Thanks to the automatic timer, you wake up to that smell every morning.
while not technically an espresso machine, since it doesn’t produce up to 15 bar of pressure during brewing, Bialetti’s Moka pots brew a strong cup of coffee comparable to espresso. Being a percolator on a stovetop, it requires no power to function, making it a good choice for camping.

Chances are you’ve seen these kettles on the counter of your favorite cafe. Fellow’s Stagg EKG kettle has a long, narrow gooseneck for precise control when you’re brewing pourover coffee, but it’s also a great kettle for everyday use and looks great on almost any countertop.
It’s easy to think you’ll never need a portable milk frother, but let me tell you, it’s a great utensil to have on hand. Not only can it quickly whip everyday milk into a creamy froth, it’s great for whipping cream, mixing cocktails, and more.
Following in the footsteps of its namesake, the Instant Pot Milk Frother is basically a multi-function device that can heat, steam, froth or whisk your milk to just about any consistency you can imagine. It’s also a cute little countertop appliance and fits nicely next to any coffee maker.
For cold brew

This is one of our favorite cold brew makers. It can make up to 32 ounces of coffee at a time, all you need to do is pour coarsely ground coffee into the basket, pour some cold water over it and refrigerate for about 24 hours. Cold brewers are a life saver during heat waves, especially because you can stock up before the heat really hits.
Some great beans

Atlas Coffee Club is on our best coffee subscription list, and for good reason. Not only does the Atlas coffee subscription make it easy to keep your home stocked with freshly roasted coffee beans, but depending on the options you choose during checkout, you can get all kinds of different coffees delivered straight to your door. In our opinion, this is the best way to best coffee for you is to just try a bunch of different coffees and Atlas makes that super easy and approachable.
