Etsy Cup Exchange for Earth Day - This one is among our favorite things we’ve contributed to in 2014.
"To cut down on the number of disposable beverage containers that pass through our hands, we’re offering 16oz jars with Cuppow lids and cozies that we designed in house and manufactured with Freaker.
We’ve set up three modular stations around the office so that folks can grab a clean cup on their way out the door, and then drop it in the dirty bin when they return.”
Showering brown beans with praise and hashtags is fun an all - but today more than ever it is super important that we also take an honest look at the waste associated with our favorite daily habit.
5 cups a week = 250 cups a year
58 billion paper cups are thrown away every year
Disposable cups often times cannot be recycled as they feature a polystyrene lining that makes them waterproof.
"Compostable plastic" while it might seem good, is in many ways a joke
By the time a disposable cup reaches your hand, it has caused 0.25 lbs of CO2 to be emitted into the atmosphere (same as driving ¼ mile) ‘
It’s alarming, we know! But the good news is there is an easy fix. Here it is:
CoffeeSock filters are reusable coffee filters made from organic cotton designed to replace the disposable filters for all common brew systems. All CoffeeSock filters are handmade in Austin, TX.
CoffeeSock filters are durable and should last 9 to 12 months with regular use saving you money and sparing the planet another paper filter.
We’re even inclined to say it makes better coffee than your average paper filter- producing a richer, more balanced brew.
CoffeeSock filters are all sorts of things we love: coffee gear that’s simple and well designed. The Cuppow team traveled to Austin to meet the makers of CoffeeSock, and a new friendship was forged. We’re proud to carry a reusable product that minimizes everyday waste.
Coffee Sock Co. reusable filters outperform the alternatives, while being less costly and less wasteful. This Chemex filter gets plenty of use at Cuppow HQ and it shows! The same great cup, day after day, without the waste.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! So don’t ruin it by eating garbage packaged in trash - BYO, DIY, whatever call it, just eat with intentionality and love every minute of it!
We use this #jartip daily for toting coffee around town!
Slide the standard canning jar lid underneath your Cuppow (or vice versa) for a leak-proof seal. We designed Cuppow with this utility in mind and hope it brings you many miles of spill free sipping!
