Camera Lens Coffee Mug

These are probably the most unique set of coffee mugs I've ever seen.  Our friends over at Photojojo have introduced us to the Canon Camera Lens Mugs:


Available in either a white, 70-200mm lens mug (right) and a black, 24-105mm lens mug (left).  The black lens has a realistic lens-cap lid with rubber-grip focus zoom rings.  It even has an auto-focus switch that actually switches.  The white lens has a liquid tight travel lid and a rubber-grip bottom to keep it from sliding on your dash.  



Find them here, starting at only $24.  Or, if you're more partial to Nikon lenses, they have those too.

Rise and Shine


"Beautiful Wreck" by: Shawn Mullins


Don't want to be wasteful?  Refrigerate that leftover coffee and use some/all of it to make your morning oatmeal.  It's not much, but you'll notice the taste difference.  Add some honey to make it even better.

Caffeinated Popcorn

Yes, you did read that correctly.  Ever have trouble staying awake through a movie?  Need a little boost but hate coffee?  Solution:
Taste-wise, Biofuel teeters between salty and sweet, a la Kettle corn, while packing a 150 to 200mg wallop of caffeine per bag (roughly two energy drinks worth of jitter juice). That makes each of the bag’s 4.5 suggested servings basically equivalent to a cup of coffee. Wolfing down the entire bag, on the other hand, is closer to downing a fistful of methamphetamine or 1/4th of a can of Four Loko.

Coffee Joulies: GAME CHANGER

This might just be the end of the coffee world as we know it ...

First, they absorb energy from your coffee when it is too hot, cooling it down to a drinkable temperature three times faster.  Next, they release that stored energy back into your coffee keeping it in the right temperature range twice as long.  Check them out here!  Thanks, JJC.

Sunergos Coffee

If you're in Louisville and not drinking Sunergos Coffee, you're wrong.  Fact.
After my initial discovery of this glorious coffee establishment last spring, it instantly became my "Mecca of java" among Louisville's vast coffeehouse landscape.  The simple, yet eclectic atmosphere inside their Preston St. location is amazing.  Pair this with a friendly staff of baristas/the best coffee you'll ever taste and you've got a recipe for success.  As they put it:

"Our work in coffee grew out of an enjoyment of it, and a desire to be intimately acquainted with the processes that result in an exceptional cup.  Before we were a roastery, we were home roasters, learning the craft of coffee in the company of our families and friends.  With the purchase of our first roaster, and the formation of Sunergos Coffee, roasting naturally became central to our business.  Throughout the life of Sunergos we have enjoyed participating in a diverse community of people who regularly come together around coffee.  Out of the fabric of this daily coffee community, people have emerged to join us in our work, enriching and being enriched through working together.  The work of Sunergos continues to grow as each person engages their craft, from the roastery to the espresso bar."

Make sure to try the Sulawesi if you can (my personal favorite).

Coleman Propane Coffee Maker

"Roughin' it" just got a little nicer with the Coleman Propane Coffee Maker ($90).  Thanks to one of my favorite blogs, Gear Patrol, for bringing this to my attention.  It just happens to look and operate like most home java makers, which can reassure less savvy campers worried about missing their fix. Unlike other alternatives, this brewer can also produce a full 10 cups in one use — making it ideal for bigger groups or a few serious addicts. In terms of power, its standard 16.4 oz propane cylinder is good for roughly 15 pots and easily lights using the included auto ignition button. One 10 cup pot takes around 18 minutes to brew, or roughly a quarter of the time it’ll take you to start feeling chipper after sharing a tent your unshowered buddy.
