Gifts for coffee lovers
Four gifts for people who drink coffee every day, from a heated mug for slow sippers to a brewer that makes both pods and a full pot. Each has its own guide with the limits spelled out.
-
For slow sippers
Ember Mug 2
About $100 to $120
A heated smart mug that holds coffee at a set temperature between 120°F and 145°F, so the last sip is as warm as the first. Works without a phone after setup.
Skip it if they want to use the dishwasher or drink in the car. The Mug 2 is hand wash only and has no leak-proof lid.
-
For households that disagree
Keurig K-Duo
About $160 to $200
A K-Cup brewer and a 12-cup drip coffee maker in one machine, so pod people and pot people share one counter spot.
Skip it if they only brew two or three cups at a time. The carafe side makes 6 cups at minimum.
-
For iced coffee drinkers
YETI Rambler 42 oz Straw Mug
$45
A 42 oz insulated straw mug with a handle that keeps iced coffee cold at a desk all day and goes in the dishwasher.
Skip it if they drink hot coffee. YETI says the straw lid is not for hot drinks.
-
For iced coffee on the road
Stanley Quencher H2.0 FlowState
$45 to $50
Fits most car cup holders and keeps ice for a long time, with a lid that switches between straw, sip and closed.
Skip it if it will go in a backpack. Stanley says the H2.0 is not fully leakproof.

Before you buy
Hot or iced?
Ember and Keurig are for hot coffee. The YETI and Stanley straw lids are made for cold drinks.
Count the cups
For one person who sips slowly, a heated mug helps. For a family or guests, a brewer that makes a full pot does more.
Common questions
What do you get a coffee lover who has everything?
A heated mug like the Ember Mug 2 is a common pick, because it fixes the cold-coffee problem without replacing their brewer.
Is the Ember Mug 2 worth it as a gift?
For people who sip one coffee slowly at a desk, yes. For someone who drinks on the go or wants dishwasher-safe gear, a good insulated tumbler costs less and fits better.
