To brew a perfect cup of coffee, you need to precisely control all variables, including bloom time, flow rate, brew temperature, and volume. With the Luxe Brewer, you can control those factors and more to your preference. The new Breville is certified by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) to provide precise temperature control and customized brewing parameters.

Three mode settings—Gold Cup Standard, Cold Brew, and Custom Brew — make it even easier to create consistent coffee every time. With the Cold Brew setting, you can adjust the brewing time up to 36 hours.

A removable water reservoir with an integrated water filter ensures the Luxe Brewer continues to brew coffee to your standards over time. The Luxe Brewer also has a water hardness test strip to adjust the machine’s descaling schedule based on local water conditions.

The Luxe Brewer Glass model is upgraded with a warming plate that keeps a consistent temperature for up to six hours.

Celebrate the start of summer with a new 20-year-old straight rye whiskey from Bulleit
Bulleit is celebrating America's birthday with a new rye whiskey
Bulleit

While bourbon is referred to as America’s “native spirit”, rye whiskey actually has a longer historical footprint in the US. While bourbon didn’t get its start until the late 1700s, rye whiskey was popular decades prior. So, it only makes sense that in celebration of the United States’ 250th birthday, Bulleit would release its oldest rye whiskey ever: Bulleit 20-Year-Old Rye.

Dewar's 15

If you’re a Scotch whisky drinker, I know you have at least a few bottles of blended Scotch whisky that you would never drink neat or on the rocks. Perhaps you were given a bottle, or you just bought one because of a flashy label, only to realize it was fairly unpalatable on its own, best mixed with soda or other ingredients. But, if you limit your whisky collection to blended Scotch whiskies that you’d never want to drink neat, you’re missing out on some outstanding expressions just waiting to be discovered.

I was once like this. When I first started writing about alcohol, I didn’t know much about Scotch whisky, and my only experience with blended Scotch was a less-than-stellar expression that came in an easy-to-grab plastic bottle. It wasn’t the type of whisky I was going to want to crack open when my friends or family members stopped by.
