Thanks to Steeped Coffee for sending over these flavors in exchange for a review. All thoughts are my own. |
Traveling during the holidays means lots of luggage, presents, and usually lack of space. Perhaps your Christmas cabin doesn't have a coffee maker, you are visiting mom & dads who only drink hot tea, or yours breaks in the middle of the week leading up to Christmas Day.
Whatever the case may be, Steeped Coffee has a great way to brew your caffeine without all the gadgets. This is a version of a pour over method that uses single-serve coffee brew bags.
To make a great cup of Steeped coffee:
- Place a coffee brew bag into your mug, pour hot water over it, and let it steep!
- Instructions say to pour water in that's around 205 F (or about 30 seconds off the boil).
- Dunk the bag for around 30 seconds.
- Leave the bag in the cup and drink about five minutes later.
- It's also okay to leave the bag in the cup if you don't have a means to dispose it!

How does the coffee taste?
Just like tea bags, dunking the brew bag is recommended and almost needed to get the best flavors without the bitter aftertaste. Steeped has light, medium, dark, and french roasts along with decaf. I was sent all caffeinated regular roasts to test out and love the French roast.
The flavors are just as bold as if one was brewing coffee in a regular maker, and the key is definitely letting it rest before drinking. I also like some cream in my coffee, so that adds extra flavor as well.
I will definitely be taking these on my adventures, whether it's during the holidays or even work events. Also, this is perfect to keep in my office for those days when I just don't have time to brew coffee at home!
Definitely better than hotel coffee, easy to take in baggage, and provides 95 mg just like regular brewing methods, Steeped Coffee should definitely be under your tree (or better yet, in your cup) this holiday season!
Great for gifts, great for household items, and great for making it through the holiday season, be sure to add Steeped Coffee to your Christmas list!
