I’m going to be honest: my transport coffee setup is anything though portable. Any time we highway trip, we have a verbatim box full of gear: Chemex, filters, Acaia scale, smaller dosing scale, non-static temp kettle, palm grinder, a preference of coffees, maybe an Aeropress for when I’m feeling single-serve. Flying, on a other hand, is a woefully opposite affair. we move nothing. I’m not checking another bag usually for my coffee rigging and don’t get me started on a diagnosis we perceived when perplexing to get by airfield confidence with a palm millstone that might or might not demeanour like an bomb device. This leaves me during a whims of a coffee village in a city we am visiting, that can be abjectly terrifying.
But my transport coffee prayers might usually have been answered interjection to a Kickstarter that went live today. It’s called Dripkit and it’s a pocket-sized pour-over containing all we need to make a good crater of coffee. Just supplement water.
Created by Ilana Kruger and Kara Cohen, a Dripkit is a paper-based pour-over device with self-contained, pre-ground, pre-measured coffee. And a fold-flat packets are impossibly easy to use; all we have to do it rip open a oxygen-sealed packet, reveal a triangular dripper, put it on your favorite mug, and afterwards had 8 ounces of prohibited water.
And Kruger and Cohen haven’t skimped on peculiarity for a consequence of portability. The twin has tapped Bushwick’s City of Saints Coffee to fry a Guatemala Antigua coffee that will be used in all Dripkits. And according to a Kickstarter, interjection to a oxygen seal, any particular portion can stay uninformed for adult to 6 months.
For those looking to behind a project, a Kickstarter still has a handful of early bird specials, including a box of 10 Dripkits for usually $20 and 3 cases of 10 Dripkits for $50. Personally, I’d go with a $100 choice that includes 30 Dripkits and that overwhelming handmade Malka Dina ceramic mug, though that’s usually me. I’m a fool for a good mug.
In a few hours given going live, Dripkit has already lifted tighten to 10% of a $25,000 goal, so it appears unfailing to make. Assuming it does, rewards are approaching to be delivered in Oct of this year, with a company’s central launch a month after. For some-more information about a Dripkits or to check out some of a other prerogative options, revisit their Kickstarter page.
Finally, no some-more “random screenings” when we uncover adult to a TSA line with a palm grinder.
