FATHER'S DAY: COFFEE IN ANY SITUATION

As a new dad with a 6-month-old, it’s a bit unrealistic to expect my little one to know exactly what I would want on my first Father’s Day. So, I've taken the liberty of writing him a list.


For the outdoor dads out there, I’ve compiled a set of functional, practical, and built-to-last coffee accessories that will enable you to enjoy your perfect blend no matter the weather.

WHAT DO YOU NEED FOR COFFEE?

While you can get fancier and more expensive accessories, essentially, you need hot water, coffee (pre-ground or beans), something to filter the coffee, and something to drink it out of. 

Now that we’ve established the essentials, let’s explore some gear from Access Kit that will help Dad brew his perfect cup outdoors.

1. JETBOIL FLASH 2.0 

The Jetboil Flash 2.0 from Access Kit is fantastic for two reasons: it boils water in less than 2 minutes, and all of its parts, including the gas canister, store neatly inside the boil chamber. Access Kit sells repairable kits, tents, and other items with readily available spares. They work extensively with schools and the Duke of Edinburgh Awards, promoting sustainable camping without boasting about it. Their philosophy is simple: long-lasting products are better for the planet.


Gifting Made Easy: Access Kit excels in gifting for the outdoor enthusiast. Their site is user-friendly, making it simple to find durable, practical gifts. The detailed product descriptions and focus on sustainability make it a perfect choice for thoughtful gift-giving. Access Kit promotes their products through targeted email campaigns, highlighting seasonal gear and gift ideas, and through social media ads that showcase their products in action.


Having the right tools is essential, but what about the fuel? Here’s where a subscription to Triple Co Roast comes in.

2. Triple CO ROAST

Supporting a local company is important to me, which is why I have a subscription to Triple Co Roast. Their freshly roasted beans are fantastic, and the subscription model ensures I always have coffee just when I need it. The website is delightful to use, showcasing how subscription models can attract customers with discounts.


Gifting Made Easy: Triple Co Roast makes gifting simple with their subscription service. The site’s ease of use and the subscription options make it effortless to gift freshly roasted coffee regularly, ensuring the recipient always has their favourite brew on hand. Triple Co Roast employs email marketing to remind subscribers about their upcoming deliveries and offers personalised recommendations. They also use social media advertising to reach new customers and showcase their products.


Freshly roasted beans are fantastic, but grinding them yourself takes the coffee experience to a whole new level. Snow Peak offers a solution for the coffee-obsessed dad.

3. snow peak Coffee Grinder

The list wouldn’t be complete without some high-quality, titanium campware from Snow Peak. We love their coffee grinder, and the titanium mug is a personal favourite. Grinding fresh beans wherever you are adds a whole new dimension to making coffee. You have to work for that cup of joe, which in turn makes it taste 3-4 times better.


Gifting Made Easy: Snow Peak’s site is designed for easy navigation, with premium, durable products that make excellent gifts. Their focus on quality and design makes it easy to find a gift that will be cherished for years. Snow Peak uses a mix of email newsletters, showcasing gift guides and new product launches, along with retargeted ads to reach customers who have shown interest in their products.


Perhaps Dad is more of a minimalist adventurer? The AeroPress Go might be the perfect fit for him.

4. Aeropress Go

The AeroPress Go from Origin Coffee is a brilliant piece of kit for making coffee anywhere. All necessary components are stored inside the ‘mug,’ so you don’t even have to bring a separate mug. Origin Coffee lures customers in with free delivery over £25 and 10% off the first order if you sign up for their newsletter.


Gifting Made Easy: Origin Coffee’s AeroPress Go is a perfect gift for the minimalist adventurer. Their website is straightforward, making it easy to purchase and gift this compact coffee maker. The discounts and free delivery offers add extra value, making gift shopping a breeze. Origin Coffee leverages email marketing to promote special offers and new products, and they run paid search ads to capture interest from coffee lovers searching for portable coffee solutions.


Speaking of perfect cups, no outdoor adventure is complete without a good mug. Enter the Yeti Rambler Mug: a virtually indestructible companion for Dad’s coffee adventures.

5. YETI Rambler Mug

The Yeti Rambler Mug is so good I have two of them—one for the house and one for longer journeys. I went with Navy Blue for everything as I have no personality, but there are an array of choices available. These mugs are so great that I've gifted them to others, who now love them as much as I do. The Yeti site is clean and easy to navigate, offering free shipping to help close the deal. I personally bought mine from Stones Boatyard as they had the colour I wanted in stock.


Gifting Made Easy: Yeti's website is designed for a seamless shopping experience, making it easy to find and purchase the perfect gift. Their range of durable, high-quality products, combined with free shipping, ensures a satisfying gifting experience. Yeti utilises email campaigns to highlight gift ideas and seasonal promotions, and they invest in social media and display ads to keep their brand top of mind.


And there you have it! With these awesome finds, Dad can enjoy his coffee fix no matter where his outdoor pursuits take him.
