Sometimes its hard to know where to start when it comes to gifts for coffee lovers, which is why we've put together a few tips to help you find the perfect gift this Christmas.

 

Brewing methods

A good place to start is to find out what type of home brewing methods they use. Do they have a French press, V60 or maybe Aeropress? Sussing this out will help decide on what coffees will work best. 

If coffee isn't your thing it can maybe seem a bit daunting when researching all the different coffee types and beans.

Whether you prefer your Americano with milk, or a Flat white over a filter, everyone has their favorite and its the same with brewing methods

 

 

In a nutshell,  Espresso blends and Single Origin coffees are best for espresso or immersion brewing methods like Home espresso machines or French Press, while premium Microlots taste their best with pour over brewing methods like Chemex or V60. 

Once you've figured out the coffee and the brew you can take a look at our coffee range in order to find a coffee with the perfect tasting notes to suit you.
 

 

There are Christmas Coffee Blends and Microlots that can really add something special for Christmas morning or after the Christmas dinner.

 

Gifts & Stocking Fillers 

You can never have too much coffee but there are so many accessories and stocking fillers which are perfect for any coffee lover. 

Keep Cups-  the environmentally friendly option of a reusable coffee cup. With many coffee shops offering discounts all year round for those using one, its the gift that just keeps on giving. 

Plus, you'll get a free bag of one of our espresso blends selected specially by our Head Roaster! This is the perfect gift option for the coffee lover as blends can be enjoyed both with or without milk. 

 

 

Socks - gone are the days of being disappointed when finding a pair of these under the tree, we challenge you to find anyone who doesn't love unwrapping a good old pair of socks these days. Check out our coffee socks, with 5 styles to choose from we're confident you'll find the perfect pair.

 

 

Hats off... to you for wrapping up one of our new suede peak caps. Not exactly the best pun but it does the job. These hats are new to our merch line and a particular favourite amongst all our own staff here at Bailies. 

 

Bundle up!

Looking for something that little bit extra? We have a number of Christmas bundles for those of all levels of coffee knowledge.

The daily grind - made better with freshly ground coffee every morning. The first step means getting Baratza Encore Grinder, all wrapped up with a free bag of our limited edition Christmas blend. A good quality burr grinder is worth its weight in coffee to ensure consistent brewing.

 

 

Aeropress - In terms of being a fantastic all round brewing method it’s hard to look past the Aerobie Aeropress. In our opinion, every home should have one; they are fantastically versatile, convenient, effective and they really don’t cost a lot.

 

 

Precision is perfection - Another essential is a set of precise scales to measure dosages of coffee and water, perfect for those looking to take the next step in home brewing. Especially as this year they also come with a free bag of our premium Christmas Microlot. 

 

If you need a little bit more inspiration take a look on our website to see our full range of Christmas gifts and bundles. 

This way you can make sure that you are handing over your present with the look of smug satisfaction that only comes from knowing you have absolutely smashed it. 

If you’re still unsure, we’d recommend a coffee subscription; that way you can guarantee months of freshly roasted and seasonal coffee delivered right to the door.

There’s no such thing as too much great coffee!
