We have bean to cup machines, my one is the delongi coffee machine which produces great espresso as well as having a milk frother for longer drinks like lattes which are my favourite.

Here are some great gift ideas for the people in your life who love coffee!

I love the beautiful Hazelnut Flavour Ground Coffee Bauble from Whittards – at just £6 they make perfect stocking fillers. Made with Ground Arabica Coffee and Hazelnut flavour it’s a great festive pick-me-up presented in a decorative bauble, it’s a gift and a decoration all in one.

For the adventurous coffee lover who likes trying new flavours why not go for a Personalised Monthly Coffee Subscription Gift like this one from Novello on Etsy.Choose a brew method, select your label colour and craft your personalised message for your recipient and they do the rest, providing a monthly delivery of fresh coffee.

If you have a friend who loves the fragrance of a freshly percolated cup then why not give them a selection of Coffee Scented Candles like this Cafe Latte candle from LindsayLucasCandles on Etsy. Made from soy wax with a rich, dark, smooth coffee aroma with some notes of vanilla this is another gift perfect for a stocking, coming in at £4.99.

For your geeky coffee friend why not give them one of these Caffeine Molecule Necklaces so that they can promote their love of coffee at the same time as wearing an eye-catching accessory. The necklace comes in a choice of gold plated or silver plated variations with the molecule charm measures approximately 20mm x 20mm (0.5 inches).

If you have a friend or family member with green fingers then the Coffee Plant in a Cup from the Eden Project makes a great gift. The Arabica coffee plant comes in its very own coffee cup with coffee bean design which can be used after the plant has outgrown it. The coffee plant produces beautifully scented white flowers before producing fruit (the coffee bean) which takes nine months to ripen.

For the friend who loves to have get-togethers and serve coffee then a Chemex would make a great gift. The Chemex Coffeemaker is a manual, pour-over style glass-container coffeemaker which holds 4-6 cups worth of coffee depending on its size. It’s practical and stylish and would make the perfect conversation piece at any party.

If you prefer to give your friend an experience then why not send them on a coffee workshop to learn more about coffee preparation and serves? Workshop Coffee offer some great classes including this 2.5 hour home brewing class where you will learn all about the growing and processes that coffee goes through along with insider tips on how to choose the best beans and showcases three different brewers, covering a wide range of brewing styles including the French Press, the V60 Pourover and the Aeropress.
