These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Practical Gifts
1) Cross-Back Denim Apron
This denim apron takes a utilitarian approach to keeping you clean in the kitchen. Pure cotton denim is the aprons’ durable base, and there are perfectly-sized pockets for a notebook and pens. The cross-back construction opens up your range of motion and, because it doesn’t tie around the neck, it creates less stress there during long baking sessions.
2) uKeg Nitro Cold Brew Maker
This nitro cold brew coffee maker and dispenser keeps your coffee smooth, fresh, and creamy for weeks with the help of vacuum insulation, double filtration, and a nitro tap.
3) Rechargeable Portable Fan
On the go, at home, or at the office, this portable, rechargeable fan handily provides a cool-down when you need one. Its small but powerful design can be used handheld or in its stand that sticks (and can be moved and re-stuck) to surfaces—even upside down. The fan can also give a device a quick power-up thanks to an integrated USB charging port.
4) All-in-1 Measuring Cube
This all-in-1 measuring cup does the job of 19 measuring devices in one compact kitchen helper. Made with food-grade plastic, it’s small enough to fit in a drawer and packs in measurements ranging from teaspoons to cups—and in both imperial and metric—in one cube. Dishwasher and microwave safe.
5) Cast Iron Grill Press
A cast iron grill press lends a heavy-duty hand out on the grill or when you’re cooking on the stove. It works to squeeze out extra fat and flatten foods like burgers, bacon, and steaks for faster cooking, or you can use it to grill sandwiches panini-style.
