Make Iced Coffee In One Minute With the HyperChiller

It doesn’t matter if it’s winter or summer; some of us prefer iced coffee all year round. Unfortunately iced coffee can be more of a pain to make than regular coffee. If it’s cold brewed you have to wait hours for a cup, if it’s warm brewed, you still have to wait a long time for it to chill. If you add ice right after the coffee is brewed, it gets watered down. But now, thanks to a contraption called the HyperChiller, a cup of iced coffee can be yours in one minute — without any dilution.

First you must freeze the HyperChiller. Then, brew fresh coffee from a single serve brewer directly into the HyperChiller. Next, swirl it around every few seconds to allow the coffee to circulate around the HyperChiller. After one minute, the coffee’s temperature will have dropped by as much as 130 degrees. Now all you have to do is pour it over ice and there you have it, a fresh cup of ice cold coffee.

Just think about how much money and time you would save by using the HyperChiller at your home and office. No more trips to Starbucks! No more spending $3 to $4 for each cup of cold brew or iced coffee you buy. Think about all the things you could because of the HyperChiller now that you have that iced coffee and more time and money. Plus, the HyperChiller is a really useful gift for anybody in your life who loves iced coffee.

Why you should try Vietnamese iced coffee (and how to make it yourself)
A new type of iced coffee you need to try
Vietnamese iced coffee

Even as someone well-versed in all things coffee, I had not heard of Vietnamese iced coffee until recently. As soon as I saw it on a coffee shop menu (ironically, while traveling to Punta Cana) for the first time, I was instantly intrigued. Vietnamese iced coffee, sometimes condensed milk coffee, isn't way different than traditional iced coffee. I went on a research expedition to learn about Vietnamese iced coffee, including what makes it unique and how to make it at home. Here's what you should know about this creamy, sweet, and icy variation of iced coffee.
How to make Vietnamese iced coffee

The traditional method of making Vietnamese iced coffee uses a special filter called a Phin. Using a Phin filter is the most popular way of brewing coffee in Vietnam, and it involves a method that closely resembles the way many Europeans and Americans brew and pour coffee over.

New to making espresso drinks? These are the coffee appliances I recommend
The convenience of this espresso maker is unmatched
Nespresso Vertuoplus

So many of us (including our grandparents) have only known coffee in one form, usually drip coffee, for many years. While you can't mess with greatness, it's fair to want to explore the world of espresso-style drinks. From lattes to cappuccinos, there's something special about cafe-style espresso drinks that can almost scare newbies away. However, you don't have to visit a cafe daily to enjoy handcrafted espresso drinks. You also don't have to commit to purchasing a fancy espresso machine to brew espresso with a rich crema. Here's why I think the Nespresso Vertuoplus & Aeroccino3 are all you need to make espresso drinks at home.
Convenience of the Nespresso Vertuoplus
There are quite a few criticisms in the world of Nespresso machines. One of the most common criticisms addresses the high cost per cup compared to other methods of brewing espresso. While it's true that you may pay more per cup of espresso when using a Nespresso pod vs. espresso beans, you're paying for the convenience factor. Whether you're a beginner espresso Barista or not, we all value convenience.

I have a traditional espresso maker and the VertuoPlus -- and I love both. There's a time and a place for conventional espresso brewing methods, but I don't have that kind of time daily. As a coffee writer, I admit there are times when I will prioritize a fast and convenient shot of espresso. At the same time, I value the authentic process of brewing espresso with an espresso maker; I find myself returning to the VertuoPlus for reliable espresso on hectic days. I'm not a beginner when brewing coffee, yet I still thoroughly value what this maker brings.
