The brand only works with thoroughly vetted farms to source the highest-quality single-origin extracts. We’re fans of Lava Flower from A Golden State. Furthering the experience and offering an element of control, the paired app gives real-time feedback every time you draw from the vape to know exactly how much THC you’re consuming.

The entire system (which stands at 10.5 inches) looks gorgeous on the kitchen counter, too. Ultimately slower than automated drip offerings and many pour-over systems, the Coffeemaker Nº4 rewards patience.
