The xBloom Studio may seem expensive but even if you just used it as a stand alone coffee grinder, you’re probably still getting a pretty good deal.
Every component of the Xbloom can be used by itself, simply switch the brewing mode and you can have hot water on demand, access the scales quickly and of course grind some coffee.

Just me? Or have you had a coffee taste like this?

This Colombian coffee from Offshoot Coffee delivered 💥
We were lucky enough to score a bag of Kaleidoscope before it sold out and as soon as I brewed it my whole room filled up with funky coffee aroma. Definetly keep an eye out for this coffee and checkout what rotating singles Offshoot coffee have, they’ve always got something tasty!

The Pourigami is one of the most compact coffee drippers we sell, it’s made from 3 geometric pieces that hook into each other that create the coffee dripper shape.
Best of all this folds down into a carry case smaller than most wallets!

Titanium is lightweight, durable and doesn’t add any metallic taste to your coffee.
We’ve recently restocked and have a bunch of French press’s and coffee canisters available.
If you’re looking to make coffee on the go and don’t want the extra weight of a kettle I can’t recommend these enough.
