This portable coffee grinder is wireless so you can make pour-overs on the go

Posted on by

The All-in-One Coffee Grinder is a handheld, portable coffee grinder with integrated brew methods for coffee on the go.

When it comes to coffee, the less we have to think about it the better. Just pour, drink, and enjoy. Several different coffee maker designs have come out to ensure our caffeinated experiences are as convenient as possible. From stackable coffee to siphon coffee makers, the possibilities are endless.

Designer: Locus Hsu

Coffee makers tend to be multifunctional by design, merging brew and drip mechanisms into one machine, but integrated grinders are always missing. Noticing a gap in the market, Locus Hsu conceptualized their All-in-One Coffee Grinder, a portable, electric coffee grinder that also incorporates brew methods.

Scaling the machine down to a handheld device, Hsu’s All-in-One Coffee Grinder is about the same size as a conventional, reusable water bottle. Suitable for a camping retreat or overnight road trip, the All-in-One Coffee Grinder can be packed into any suitcase or carry-on for a quick cup of coffee when the mood hits. Comprised of three primary modules, the All-in-One Coffee Grinder keeps its power core and key control interface towards the topmost module, just above the loading tray.

At its center, the All-in-One Coffee Grinder hosts its loading compartment which users can fill with coffee beans to grind. From there, users can twist the top module for grinding. Before spilling into the filter extraction cup, a dust covering sifts the coffee grinds.

Ending up in the filter extraction cup, users can then untwist the Coffee Grinder to pour hot water over the grinds and make a cup of coffee. The bottommost compartment is the All-in-One Coffee Grinder’s capacity cup that works like a reusable travel mug.

The All-in-One Coffee Grinder is portable and electric by design.

Integrated interfaces allow for precision control during the grinding process.

Adjustment dials provide different grinding modes to accommodate different drinks.

Chargeable via USB port, the All-in-One Coffee Grinder can be used wirelessly.

The All-in-One Coffee Grinder comes with a felt carrying case.

The best gifts for coffee geeks

There are two types of coffee drinkers: people who drink coffee and people who are obsessed with coffee. I fall into the latter category. A few years ago I became friends with a couple roasters while living in Savannah, Georgia and I've never looked...

The Rivsalt Salt Grinder brings back the rustic pleasure of seasoning with your hands

Posted on by

Coming from a country that’s cuisine literally stands on spices, I can tell when Indian food is prepared with freshly ground spices versus pre-made spice mixes. There’s a complete difference in taste, and you’ll hear the same thing from gourmets, chefs, and food-lovers across the world. Pre-shredded parm tastes different from freshly grated Parmesan, and freshly ground pepper has a completely different aroma from pepper powder. The Rivsalt grinder brings that fresh distinction to salt too.

Unlike salt-grinders that use already pulverized pieces of salt, Rivsalt’s grinder allows you to work a whole block of pink Himalayan Salt. With a small platform that lets you rest your salt-rock and dock the grater, you can place the Rivsalt on any kitchen counter, or even on your dinner table. The stainless steel grater breaks the rock salt into small granules that then perfectly season your food. The freshly ground salt helps elevate the taste of what you cook and if you’re like me, you’ll never want to go back to using powdered salt ever again!

Nendo made a minimal, no-nonsense pepper-mill

Posted on by

pepper_pestle_1

With no complex rotating parts, tolerances, blades, burr grinders, handles, and assemblies, Nendo’s Pepper Pestle is a minimal, elegant storage unit for dried peppercorns that even doubles as a spice crusher. Designed to work as a mortar and a pestle, the Pepper Pestle comprises a hollow frosted glass bottle (which stores the corns) with finger dimples on either side for an easy grip, and gentle ridges on the bottom that hold and crush the peppercorns against a glass tray that also doubles up as a resting platform for the bottle.

The bottle comes with a corkstop that secures the peppercorns inside it with an airtight seal, retaining the spice’s freshness. Whenever you want some ground pepper, pour some out onto the tray and grind the spice till you reach the consistency you desire. The ground pepper collects in the concavity in the tray, and can directly be poured into your food to season it to perfection!

The Ortwo ‘singlehandedly’ changes how we crush pepper!

Posted on by

From the minds that brought you the Nutella Spatula, the Levoons, and the Levoop (which is a part of our Black Friday Gift List) comes the new innovative way to crush your peppercorns! The Ortwo models itself on the hand-grippers that we use to increase our gripping strength, giving you a new, single-handed way to crush pepper, salt, or other spices. It can be literally worked with one hand, if your other hand is occupied or messy (all pepper mills require two hands), and if you’re looking for speed and quantity, the Ortwo can be run with two hands too, giving you more crushed pepper in less time!

Its unusual build makes it easier to use (not to mention it works your hand muscles too!), and a spring within the Ortwo returns it to its opened position after you press down on it. It comes with a redesigned 95% Alumina ceramic grinder that finely grinds your salt, pepper, and even herbs to a nice, coarse, flavorful dust that gets evenly sprinkled across your food, and has six levels of adjustable coarseness that you can choose based on your preference. Like everything from Dreamfarm, the product is designed to be a beautiful, no-hassle solution. It comes with an easy-fill borosilicate container, and even includes a crumb-collecting lip so that spare particles of pepper or salt don’t fall on your kitchen counter or tabletop when you keep the Ortwo down to rest.

Seriously Smart Coffee

Posted on by

voltaire_01

As any coffee connoisseur will tell you, making fresh coffee is as much an art as it is a science. Many will also agree that truly awesome coffee starts with two things: fresh beans and a great grinder. The designers at GIR have taken these two critical elements – fresh beans and consistent grind – and combined them into one amazing machine: Voltaire. This smart appliance features fresh-sensing tech that monitors your coffee beans and automatically reorders when you need new beans! Better yet, it’s perfectly portable – Voltaire’s high-performance LiFePO4 batteries will last through over 3lbs of beans and hold a charge for up to three weeks. This means you can have top-notch coffee anywhere you go and have fresh beans waiting for you when you get back!

Coffee, refined.

Competition baristas and home brewers alike better take notice! The Rafino system delivers micron level precision to produce smoother, richer, better tasting coffee. Simply pour in your ground coffee, shake it up, and pour out the purest powder free of “boulders” and “fines” which taint the coffee taste. The Rafino’s sieve system removes both, leaving you with just the grind you need to make great tasting coffee without bitterness or sour notes.

Star Wars Death Star Grinder: Weapon of Herb Destruction

Posted on by

The Death Star isn’t all about destroying Alderaan. This space station will destroy herbs with the same massive power. It is the ultimate power in the universe and in your kitchen. Etsy seller Pyroteeze makes these so that you can easily and geekily grind up your herbs when cooking (or getting baked).

Each mini Death Star is made from non toxic polymer clay, and antiqued with a light black acrylic paint. The grinder measures about 2.5 inches across, which is a little smaller than a baseball. Both halves are held shut with a magnet that allows it to roll without falling apart. I also has a spot on the bottom that allows it to sit and not roll everywhere.

It will cost you $22(USD) and is totally worth it. After all, not everyone has a Death Star in their kitchen drawer.
