One of the things I thought I would miss most after being advised to stay at home during the current pandemic, is grabbing a cup of coffee out at a local coffee shop. It was the one thing I thought I would want to jump right back to after shops and restaurants started to open back up. While I do love specialty coffees and love the vibe of local coffee shops, I have saved a lot of money by brewing coffee at home, and have even learned to appreciate drinking coffee at home a little more!

Enjoying coffee at home is pretty easy if you have the right mindset.

I have a few tips to make your home coffee brewing experience a little brighter:

Set a coffee bar at home

Even when my family and I lived in a smaller home, or when my hubby and I lived in a small apartment when we were first married, I have always made it a priority to have a 'place' for my coffee products. Choosing a nice at-home brewing machine, like a Ninja Coffee Bar, Keurig, or Keurig alternative allows you to make simple or fancier coffee drinks at home, whenever you please. I like to have lots of different add-ins for my coffee, and like to keep my beverage bar clean. This makes the experience feel a bit more like visiting an actual coffee shop when I'm right in my own home!

Purchase the right coffee

Look for roasted coffee beans for sale online. One of the perks of brewing coffee at home is being able to grind your own coffee beans! I received a new coffee grinder for Christmas last year, and love using it to grind my own beans! It's easy to make your own specialty blends this way, too! I personally love the smell of freshly ground coffee beans in my kitchen!

Enjoy your coffee in a quiet place

It might not be easy to find a quiet spot to enjoy your coffee in if you have an entire family at home with you right now. I like to get up early in the morning, well before the rest of my family, so I can enjoy my coffee in peace. This is the way I choose to start each and every day spent at home. Some days, I sit inside and read or watch the news while I sip my coffee in my favorite chair. Other days, I sit on either my front or back porch with a cup of hot coffee, and a smile on my face. Taking a bike ride to the local coffee shop is also enjoyable, just make sure you have the proper gear from https://bovemlife.com/.
I take the opportunity to enjoy my surrounding, watching the birds fly around, or waving at neighbors as they enjoy their morning walks. This daily ritual of mine helps me get into the right mindset for the day ahead.

Brewing coffee at home is a great way to save money, and to get the perfect cup of coffee each and every time. There's no waiting in line, and you can always go back for a free refill when you want one! Drinking coffee at home certainly has its perks! You might even wind up like me, and have so many coffee makers and products that you need to find a storage unit or solution.
