Do you have a dad that loves his cup of Joe? You can get him a present that represents his passion for caffeine, which he will use up and love.
Not sure where to start? There is no better gift than one that the recipient truly loves. If you have a dad obsessed with his coffee, try some of these cool gifts to help him immerse in all that is caffeine!
Here are some great coffee gifts for dad.
Gift #1: Manual Hand Grinder
For a coffee connoisseur, they like their beans freshly ground and used immediately. This makes the freshest cup of coffee and tasty at the same time. Your coffee dad may have a grinder already, but for a man to get in on the action, a manual coffee grinder is perfect.
Electric grinders are fine, but turning the handle and crushing beans is primal and rugged, perfect for a man who likes to be hands-on. Hand grinders are also very portable, so he can take them wherever he goes to ensure he has the tastiest cup of coffee, regardless of whether he is in a fancy hotel or camping in the bush.
Gift #2: Coffee Subscription
Most dads have busy lives, so they don’t always have time to shop around for coffee. To make it more convenient for him, why not sign him up for a coffee subscription?
This is a reoccurring delivery service that sends coffee regularly, and you get to set preferences for:
Type of Coffee
You may prefer pods, beans, freshly ground coffee, or all. There are also different roast levels and flavour profiles.
Frequency of Delivery
This can be monthly, weekly and even next-day or same-day delivery.
Variety
Most companies use a variety of roasters both locally and around the world to give you a wide range of beans to sample and fall in love with.
Many companies will have additional perks for their subscribers to expose them to new flavours, and they are flexible for when you will be away from home or want to suspend your deliveries for a short period.
Gift #3: Pour Over Coffee Maker
Drinking from a drip coffee maker is a set-it-and-forget-it process. Most standard coffee makers use this, which is reliable and convenient, but for the extreme coffee lover, you can get a much better cup using a pour-over method.
Pour-over coffee makers are simple in both design and function. You have a:
Carafe
This is where you collect the brewed coffee.
Pour Over Cone
The cone sits on the carafe or mug and comes in many different shapes and designs.
Filter
Your filter is put inside the cone to hold the coffee grounds and allow for it to seep through into our carafe. It can be with paper, cloth or metal.
Goose Neck Kettle
Part of the brewing process is pouring your water into the cone, and you get the best control with a gooseneck kettle. This allows for even saturation of your grounds and control of pour rate.
Your dad will love to use this tailored method of home-brewing coffee.
Gift #4: Personalized Mug Set
Most people have a favourite go-to mug that they like to drink from, and for a dad, it’s usually a big one. You can gift him a new favourite mug by personalizing it so it is special to him, and he will love you for it.
For simplicity, get one with his name on it, but it doesn’t stop there. How about his favourite pastime or sports team that he follows? You can even have a photo of a meme transferred onto the mug, and a funny joke or quote will always brighten his day.
Gift #5: Espresso Maker
While some people stick to coffee, your dad may also love the strong taste of espresso. This is a coffee method from Italy that have you using boiled water forced under pressure through finely ground coffee beans. Almost any type of coffee can be used because it is more about the method than the blend.
Espresso is a thicker, stronger coffee hit typically drank in small cups. Get an espresso maker with included cups to set him up for a new way to enjoy his caffeinated adventures.
Gift #6: Coffee Lovers Gift Basket
How about curating your coffee-themed gift basket? Gift baskets are awesome because it is full of a bunch of mini gifts, and this allows you to include several less expensive items in one vessel.
Here are a few ideas for what to include:
- Personalized mug
- Coffee samplers
- Syrups
- Milk frother
- Brew stick
- Coffee scoop
- French press
- Dark chocolate-covered coffee beans
- Coffee themed t-shirt
A basket shows that you care enough to go the extra mile and put some loving thought into Dad’s gift.
