If the thought of drinking coffee from a hotel coffee machine out of a styrofoam cup is enough to give you nightmares, this portable coffee-making kit is something handy to have while you're on the road.
The Travel Coffee Kit was developed in a collaboration between bagmaker Timbuk2 and Blue Bottle Coffee, a San Francisco-based cafe. What's included in the kit is a miniature stainless steel hand grinder, a dripper, two enamel tumblers with snap-on felt sleeves, a pack of 100 compostable hemp-based filters, plus a small sample-sized bag of Blue Bottle's Three Africans drip blend to get you started. All of these items can be neatly packed away in a handy carrying bag, so that you can make coffee just to your liking no matter where you are in the world.
