Building a Home Coffee Bar

A great home setup is less about price and more about a few good choices.

Start with the grinder

If you buy one thing, make it a burr grinder. Fresh, even grounds will improve any brewer you already own.

Then keep it simple

A pour-over cone, a kettle with a narrow spout and a small scale will take you a long way. Add an espresso machine only when you’re ready to tinker.
