If you have a multiple-cup-a-day habit, then an at-home coffee station is a must-have. With a little bit of planning, you can elevate your daily coffee experience without breaking the bank. If life begins after coffee, here are our top tips for creating an at-home coffee station. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pick your spot<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look in your home and figure out where you have space for a coffee station. Pick a spot that has plenty of room for your essential tools and is away from the cleanup and cooking zones in the kitchen. It\u2019s helpful if it&#8217;s within easy access to outlets, the sink, and trash cans so you can quickly refill kettles or water tanks and toss filters without needing to carry them across the room. You can use a standalone cart or repurpose a dresser or sideboard if your counter space is accounted for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Place your coffee maker<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The coffee machine is the star of the space. After choosing\nthe location of your coffee bar, place your coffee machine. Make sure there\u2019s\nplenty of clearance so you have full access to the machine. If you use\nadditional appliances, like a milk frother or coffee grinder, place them nearby\nso you can easily grab them when you need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create plenty of storage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll need storage space for your supporting items: mugs,\ntools, and supplies. The goal is to keep everything you need (that doesn\u2019t\nrequire refrigeration) to make your coffee within easy reach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several ways to store mugs. If your coffee station\nis on the counter, placing your mugs in nearby cabinets makes perfect sense.\nYou can also get creative with your cup storage. One popular way is to hang\nthem, whether from a wire drying rack, beneath some shelving, or a set of wall hooks.\nAnother option is stacking if your mugs easily and securely stack. If you have\na few mugs or some favorite mugs, you can display them in a row on your counter\nor an open shelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Store all your coffee and tea (or other hot beverage)\ningredients within reach of your coffee station. Store coffee, loose tea, and\nsugar in air-tight canisters with scoops. Remove coffee pods and tea bags from\nthe original box and place them in decorative boxes to keep your coffee station\nfrom looking cluttered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personalize your space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now for the fun stuff! It\u2019s time to add a personal touch to\nyour new coffee station. Work in fun pops of color and add decorative accents\nlike plants or art prints, display your favorite mugs; anything that makes you\nsmile first thing in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having an at-home coffee station is a game-changer. It\u2019s an attainable bit of luxury that lets you enjoy the caf\u00e9 feel without leaving the comforts of home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SummerHill Homes is dedicated to designing and building\ndistinctive new homes in the most sought-after neighborhoods in the Bay Area.\nVisit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.summerhillhomes.com\/\">SummerHillHomes.com<\/a>&nbsp;to\nlearn more about our vibrant communities and homes today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you drink coffee?
