Coffee + Gear

Eight Ounce Coffee has it all! And the best part is (well at least for me) they are located right here in Calgary, AB. But don’t worry they ship across Canada and even to the USA.

If you’re new to the world of coffee, or you’re an all out coffee-nerd you want to pay Eight Ounce a visit. The staff are so friendly, and always happy to help you to learn more about incredible coffee and incredible coffee gear. Their online store is top-notch and really a one-stop shop for everything coffee. 

Their showroom in Calgary is a great place to hangout and talk about/try new coffee gear hitting the market. Often they’ll even make you a coffee while you check out the store. They are also one of the few places in the city that bring in coffee beans from across North-America and oversees for retail. Calgary is lucky to have the Eight Ounce HQ in our city.

Since 1993, Espresso Parts has supplied cafe owners, baristas, and home brewers the best products and service available.

They’re located in Lacey, Washington (south of Seattle) and offer incredibly fast domestic shipping & also offer international shipping!

It’s likely safe to say that most people recognize that coffee is comprised of 98% water.

So if what makes up most of your coffee is water, don’t you think you should care as much about it as you do about the coffee you choose to brew? One of the ways you can make a significant difference in the quality of the coffee you’re brewing is to use a mineral pack that you simply add to a 4L (one gallon) bottle of distilled or reverse-osmosis water. This one simple thing makes a world of difference. I have been using Perfect Coffee Water for a few months now and I love it.

So basically, the formula is (BETTER WATER = BETTER TASTING COFFEE). And if you want to get your hands on some Perfect Coffee Water, click the link below and save 15% off your order!

Who doesn’t love freshly roasted coffee delivered to your doorstep each and every month!? This is why I love the Th3rdwave Coffee Club. This carefully curated coffee subscription offers incredible Canadian coffee roasters each and every month and all I have to do to get it is open up my mailbox.

By answering a few simple questions relating to taste appreciation, brew method, roast level, and amount of coffee you usually consume the team at Th3rdwave sets out to create a tailor-made subscription that is perfectly suited to your preferences & needs. I love that they have helped me to discover so many incredible Montreal-based coffee roasters (where they are headquartered) but also seek to share many great roasters from across Canada.

The best thing is, they have an incredible coffee app as well that I have enjoyed making use of over the years. So if you are in the market for a fantastic coffee subscription, give Th3rdwave a try, and also save 30% off your first month!

I have long been a fan of Niche, and their iconic “Niche Zero” grinder. This grinder revolutionized the single-dose home coffee grinder market when it made it’s debut in 2018. And since then it has become synonymous with build quality, efficient work-flow, and in my opinion, the easiest grinder to clean!

Not only does it work incredibly well, but it looks good too. I have used this grinder for over 4 years without any issues. More recently they also debuted their Niche Duo grinder. So you’ve even more options for what to get. If you’re looking to get your hands on a Niche Grinder use the link below.
