Coffee gear we can’t quit (our kettle basically runs 24/7).

Fellow is the San Francisco coffee crew that set out in 2013 to bring café-quality brews home—minus the clunky machines. After eight months, countless prototypes, and one scrappy Kickstarter, they launched the Duo Coffee Steeper, a slick hybrid of pour-over and French press that put them on the map. Today, their kettles, grinders, and gear are beautifully functional, totally intuitive, and just obsessive enough to keep both design lovers and baristas buzzing. And at Hei-Day HQ? The founder’s Fellow electric kettle is in near-constant rotation—proof that great design becomes a daily habit.
