Gravity Cold Brew Coffee Maker

Brewing coffee is an art. It takes practice and various techniques to come up with a rich and flavorful cup of joe that suits your palate. It also comes in different flavors, like the cold brew that is making the waves these days.

Making cold brew normally takes ten to 12 hours and sometimes overnight. Sometimes it takes a trial and error method to get the perfect blend of cold brew.

However, with the Gravity Cold Brew Coffee Maker, it’s as simple as making drip coffee. Just toss in the ground beans, add water, and wait. This coffee maker also limits measuring guesswork of water and beans with its etched guide markings. Simply fill up to the markings to start brewing.

This innovative product lets you make cold brew two ways: immersion brewing and slow drip. Immersion takes 12-24 hours to steep the combined ground beans and water to create a coffee that is rich, bold, and chocolatey. Afterward, simply twist the filter valve to let out the elixir into the carafe. The Gravity serves 15 cups of immersed cold brew.

Meanwhile, slow drip takes 8 hours for a coffee that tastes sweet, smooth, and mellow. Simply fill 3 ounces of ground coffee up to the drip line and fill water to the brim.

The Gravity Cold Brew Coffee Maker comes with parts (drip plate, carafe, nesting lids, and filter cap) that are easy to take apart for cleaning. The glass is dishwasher safe.

FrankOne One-Touch Coffee and Cold Brew Maker

Now you don’t have to wait overnight or more than ten hours to make a cup of cold brew. The FrankOne One-Touch Coffee and Cold Brew Maker delivers a strong cold cup of joe with a press of a button and in minutes.

This machine uses Vacuum Extraction Technology to accelerate the process of making cold brew. What it does is it uses negative pressure to force cold water through a bed of finely ground coffee to deliver exceptionally tasty and sweet cold brew that has less bitterness. The bitterness remains on the top and out of your cup.

This manual coffee maker works with any grind size beans from very fine to very coarse. Finely ground beans make a good espresso and a French press from a coarsely ground coffee.

The FrankOne comes with unique features including its USB charging method. The machine can make 150 coffees on a single two-hour charge.

It also comes with a reusable fine metal mesh filter that can easily be removed for cleaning. The metal does not affect the taste of the brew.

The FrankOne is also unlike other manual coffee makers that cannot be cleaned with water. It is completely safe to wash it under flowing water because it is waterproof. It also has a sleek and compact design so you can take it anywhere with you for coffee on the go.

Kanso Hiku Coffee Grinder

A good cup of coffee is only as good as its coffee beans and how the beans are ground to give you robust taste. Picking out the best coffee grinder that delivers such is not easy. The Kanso Hiku, on the other hand, promises precision grinding every time.

You don’t have to make compromises on coffee taste with this manual grinder. It uses a Kanso-designed dual burrset made of hardened, CNC-machined stainless steel for powerful grinding. It has an inner burr that measures 41mm in diameter and an outer burr at 55 mm. These measurements yield 75 and 70 percent more grinding teeth and surface, respectively, and over 30 percent more output per revolution.

This device eliminates the need for the usual guesswork that comes with other manual grinders since it has a knurled stepless adjustable grind size ring. This ring emulates the look and feel of a camera’s focus ring that easily rotates to the size of your choosing. Likewise, it has a non-linear scale etched on the anodized aluminum enclosure.

This grinder offers ground size between medium to espresso fine and its grind cup is made for coffee sharing. It has a capacity of 50g, which is equivalent to five cups of pour over.

The Kanso Hiku coffee grinder lets you enjoy a cup of coffee anytime and anywhere. It is portable and lightweight at less than two pounds. Its machined handle is detachable so you can pack it anywhere you like.

The World’s Most Luxurious Wood-Burning Oven

How much are you willing to spend for a grill or an oven? $100? $150? $300? Regardless of what price tier you pick, at that point you’re already getting a very good model that’ll have loads of features and will stay functional for years. But if those prices aren’t just cutting it, how does $32,000 sound?

If you’re willing to spend well more than a quarter of a hundred thousand dollars, the Aemyrie Igneum is all yours. It’s apparently the world’s most expensive wood-burning oven. But all that luxury isn’t just for luxury’s sake. In fact, you’re actually getting a bunch of cool tech enhancements you might have never thought was possible on an oven.

Not all of us can be great cooks. You might think you know how to fry eggs, but next thing you know, Gordon Ramsay is calling you an idiot for overcooking what’s perhaps the easiest food to prepare. That being said, you don’t have to be the world’s greatest chef to have perfectly cooked food, and you have the Aemyrie Igneum’s intelligent temperature control mechanism to thank for that, which ensures that every food you throw in will come out perfectly cooked.

It’s also the first oven to feature a technology from none other than NASA. It’s called “Aerogel” and it enables the wood-burning oven to have a “safe touch” exterior so you won’t hurt yourself if you accidentally lay a finger on its surface even when cooking at very high temperatures.

And don’t even worry about refueling this bad boy up as it will work with almost anything you throw at it — briquettes, pellets, charcoal, and even solid wood logs will work perfectly.

Palmpress Single-Serve Coffee Press

The Palmpress Single-Serve Coffee Press does as its name entails. It brews café-quality cup of joe just like any coffee press, but with a twist: it simplifies the pour-over process.

This personal coffee maker is unlike any of its kind. For starters, it does not come with the heavy and sometimes, bulky glass container like in most traditional coffee press.  Instead, the coffee grounds steep in a collapsible filter cup that you can easily expand when you want to brew.

Brewing your barista-quality coffee with the Palmpress follows the same procedure as with regular coffee press. You put medium ground coffee to the cup, add a little bit of hot water and wait 30 seconds before pouring more. This process allows the coffee aroma and flavor to open up.

Then you can screw on the filter lid while you wait three minutes for your coffee to seep to perfection. When it’s time to pour, simply flip the filter cup over onto your mug and press down to expel freshly-brewed coffee.

This coffee press is made from BPA-and phthalate-free materials so it is safe for daily use. The inner material is made of silicone and stainless steel while the exterior uses ABS and TPR rubber. Its compact design makes it portable to carry around anywhere since it doesn’t take up much space in your bag.  Moreover, it is very light at less than a pound.

Top 25 Wall Mounted Bottle Openers

D

on’t you just hate it when you’re just relaxing at home after a hard day’s work, want a beer, and you can’t find the bottle opener? Unsurprisingly, when you actually need it, the sucker cannot be found. It’s okay if you’ve got screw tops. However, this won’t work if you’ve got traditional bottles to open. You’re angry and no longer relaxed, and who can blame you? This is why you need to invest in a different kind of bottle opener. A wall mounted bottle opener, to be exact.

Yes, we mean one like the kind you’d see in an old Irish pub. We hear your concerns. You’re worried a wall mounted bottle opener might be a little too bulky for your studio apartment. However, modern wall mounted bottle openers don’t have to be big unsophisticated clunks of steel or iron.

They’re actually a lot more refined these days and are designed to fit in with a home environment. Think about your life without such a bottle opener.

What do you do in those precious, needed, bottle opening moments? If you’re like us, you just get another portable, easy to lose bottle opener. Then the same thing happens yet again. More money is thrown away with nothing to show for it.

This vicious circle that will undoubtedly result in you finding a ridiculous amount of bottle openers all over your place. However, all of this could have been resolved beforehand.

That’s why the wall mounted bottle openers we’re going to look at in this post are so crucial for you. They solve problems BEFORE they happen. However, we cannot be in too big of a rush. There are some questions we need to answer first.

Top Reasons to Buy Wall Mounted Bottle Openers

Obviously, one of the main benefits of wall mounted bottle openers is that you can’t possibly lose it. Not as long as it’s fixed to a wall in your house, where it should be. Perhaps, you’ve got an elf who likes to steal bottle openers, even those fixed firmly to the wall.

Usually, it will always be exactly where it was the last time you used it. Even someone new to your house, such as guests at your get-togethers, will have no trouble finding it.

Another great benefit of wall mounted bottle openers is really on display during parties. If you’ve been using handheld, portable bottle openers up until now, you’ll know how frustrating it can be. Such as at a party when one guest hogs the bottle opener or doesn’t put it back where it should go.

The kitchen usually ends up overcrowded due to this.

However, when you have wall mounted bottle openers, you avoid the lines that back up from the kitchen all the way up the hall and into the bedroom. It will always be in the same place. A quick flowing line can form behind your super-cool bottle opener and keep those beers flowing freely.

The final benefit worth noting is the fact that a wall mounted bottle opener looks incredibly cool. Even if you’re not getting it for your bar and even if you don’t have a bar at home, a bottle opener of this kind will look awesome. Particularly as they now come in a wide variety of different designs with lots of famous brands getting in on the fun.

Ford, Coca-Cola and many more have their own wall mounted bottle opener to add fun to any home.

Will a Wall Mounted Bottle Opener Damage My Wall?

This is a common concern for many people and with good reason. After all, you’re fixing a piece of metal to your wall that’s going to undergo pressure each time you, one of your household, or a guest fancies a bottled beverage. It’s at least possible that over time it could cause problems and damage your wall.

Especially as many people using it at some point will be slightly inebriated, to say the least.

However, that misconception is not really true though. Good quality wall mounted bottle openers should be able to handle whatever you throw at it, or open with it. As long as you’re not going at it like a bull in a china shop, that is. These are designed to stay put and withstand the pressure.

Therefore, one of the most likely reasons for wall mounted bottle openers causing damage to your wall is that it was not installed it properly. The proper installation makes this far less common. Rather than being the bottle opener’s fault, it might be your own fault.

There’s one other reason why that bottle opener mounted to the wall could cause damage to the surface. Not all bottle openers, wall mounted or otherwise, are made equally. If you invest in a wall mounted bottle opener that’s made from inferior or less than sturdy and robust materials, it may not stay attached to the wall for very long.

Worst still, it could take a chunk out of your wall. That is even if the bottle opener itself is made with high-quality materials.

What are Wall Mounted Bottle Openers Usually Made of?

Finally, we arrive at our last question and it’s an understandable one. What the wall mounted bottle openers are made out of often seems to be the question on the minds of people around the world. The materials used greatly impact whether or not a wall mounted bottle opener will stay in place and last.

Most bottle openers on this list are made from cast iron. That really is the classic bottle opener material.

However, there are other materials used too such as stainless steel, die-cast metal, and commonly aluminum alloy. That’s just the opener themselves though. Some come attached to a plaque backing and those tend to be made from a lightweight but robust wood, with a classy finish.

Now that we’ve addressed the burning questions regarding wall mounted bottle openers, it’s time to dive right in and look at the products our team here at Men’s Gear have chosen.

1) Dsmile Wall Mount Bottle Opener – Cast Iron Pack of 12

First on our list is this great set of 12 wall mounted bottle openers. Produced by Dsmile, these bottle openers are made from robust cast iron and have a very vintage look. If you’re looking for that classic style – picture an old pub or dive bar and you’re there.

Thanks to the cast iron used to construct it, it’s much more robust than the average carabiner, flip-flop or keychain bottle opener you may use normally.

This model is also incredibly simple to install. You’re given 24 1/2-inch black aluminum wooden screws to allow you to mount the opener anywhere you wish. When it comes to using it though, it’s when it really comes into its own. It can quickly remove the cap of most regular beers, sodas and other bottles you may have.

The fact that you get a 12 pack of these things is one of the biggest selling points – a freebie for the guys?

Ratio Eight Coffee Maker

Coffee these days come in different flavors and sizes, though it’s always better to stick to the tried and tested barista pour over to satiate your caffeine fix. The Ratio Eight Coffee Maker, manufactured in Portland, Oregon, provides just that with a press of a button.

This stylish beauty uses simple materials and a precision pour-over design to brew your perfect cup of joe. It automatically detects how much coffee to brew depending on the amount of water you poured, whether a 16 ounce or 40-ounce carafe.

Meanwhile, variable brewing algorithm precisely simulates a skilled barista pour over. It measures the water flow at precisely 200 degrees both during the brew and bloom process. It uses a stainless steel showerhead that steeps the coffee grounds for an even extraction. The result is coffee that tastes as good as those from pour-over carafes.

Hand-made only with the highest quality materials, this coffee maker can last you for years. Its top is made from aerospace-grade-die-cast aluminum, the base has a premium satin metallic finish, and the carafe with silicone heat lid is made from laboratory-grade handblown borosilicate. Meanwhile, premium hardwood such as walnut provides the accents.

Functionality aside, the Ratio Eight Coffee Maker does not look like your typical automatic coffee machine. It boasts a sleek finish and modern design that it can easily pass as a countertop decor.

Fjord Whisky Glass

They say that real men drink whisky, but some of us here honestly drink beer most of the time. However, it’s always preferable to knock back a glass of scotch on some occasions. Those moments simply require your spirit of choice and a proper vessel to hold the smoky liquid. Something like the Fjord Whisky Glass.

Just like other types of alcohol, experts recommend that proper glassware must be used to deliver the best drinking experience. Here we have an elegant hand-made creation of Scandinavian origin, the Fjord Whisky Glass. Inspired by the beautiful landscapes of Norway, this artistically-designed lead-free crystal container showcases the majestic beauty of the Fjords. We’ve seen various takes on unique glassware, but the crafted shapes featured on this Norwegian glassware serve another purpose.

Experts on matters that concern the amber spirit insist that smelling is part of the journey. Mimicking mountains on each side with space in between as the inlet, a swish of the glass aerates the spirit to radiate its rich aromas. It’s a perfect gift for your loved ones who prefer to indulge in a glass of scotch every now and then. You can add another touch of sophistication with the six-glass set that comes in a solid oak case.

HEAdesigns EQ V2 Ti Pocket Knife

You know it’s always prudent to be prepared in case something unexpected comes up. Which is why it’s important to always have gear that can help you from a survival standpoint. You might need something to slice or cut whatever stuff that comes your way (food most likely). That’s why we love the HEAdesigns EQ V2 Ti knife—a reliable pocket tool that can likely help when you’re in a pinch.

We agree that the unusual choice of colors makes it difficult to take seriously, but if past experiences taught us one thing—what matters is durability and performance—looks are just secondary. Don’t take it the wrong way, the knife comes in shades that are unconventional yet attractive at the same time. However, those who’ve handled previous models from the brand know that it’s more than just eye-candy

The 3.5-inch blade is forged from M390 steel—recognized for its corrosion-resistance and strength. You will also notice that the flipper tab on this new model is much smaller than its predecessor. This is supposedly in line with the smaller profile intended by the manufacturer. The two-tone finish on the blade is a remarkable feature that likewise gives it an interesting profile.

Its handle is perfectly crafted from 6A/4V aircraft-grade titanium that’s at its widest closest to the bolster and tapers down to a rounded point. The sleek form of the frame seamlessly houses the shape of the blade. The compact assembly measures only 4.9-inch long and 1.1-inch wide when closed. A total of four colors are available with matching accents on the pivot, clip, and rivets.

HEAdesigns EQ V2 Ti is a limited production run with only 150 units crafted for each version and cost $349 to own one.
