“Cold brew, but make it fast” is now just minutes away with Brezi Cold—a purpose-built cold brew brewer for coffee and tea. We’ve been testing it for several weeks and are really happy with the results. As you know cold brew is one of the gentlest brewing methods, preserving all of the taste with with substantially less acid. It starts with a hot water bloom to get the coffee primed, then moves to cold brewing, all based on the parameters you’ve set. A fresh cold brew takes around 10 minutes (which varies based on brew volume) and a Kyoto-style slow drip method (our favorite) is also available (which takes around an hour, also based on brew volume). Founded by passionate runners who wanted to enjoy post-run cold brew, they developed their own system when alternatives were lacking. The machine is thoughtfully engineered, with a simple control dial on top of the machine that rotates through brewing options. The grounds cup attaches magnetically. It’s simple to use, and delivers a satisfying cold brew experience.

You don’t need to travel as much as we do to include compression socks in your travel kit. They are essential for flying, helping your body to keep your blood flowing in your feet and legs while sitting on your ass for hours at a time. Many people wear them when working out, or if standing most of the day at work, too. We’ve tried many brands and VIM & VIGR is our new favorite. They offer multiple styles (regular socks, open-toe socks, leg sleeves) in three different knits—cotton, wool (our favorite) and moisture-wick nylon), various compression strength, and of these in many solid colors and patterns.
