Know The Gear

DESCRIPTION A stunning gift box for ant lovers, coffee explorers, or collectors of one-of-a-kind brewing equipment!

We’re pitching gifts that are kinder to the planet — no plastic packaging, just beautifully crafted pieces that celebrate both coffee and art. Thoughtfully presented, this box is perfect for someone just discovering coffee or for anyone who values traditional, time-honoured brewing methods.

The brass filter is a uniquely South Asian way to brew coffee — slow percolation of finely ground beans through a traditional filter. The result? A rich, heavy-bodied cup that’s perfect both hot and over ice. It’s not just a cup, it’s an experience.

SIZE & WEIGHT To fill

INCLUDED The Ant Loop Gift Box contains:

  • 100g of coffee of your choice*
  • Ant Loop Brass Filter
  • Ant Loop Brass Tumbler Set

How to Use

RECIPE For a pour over, place a filter in your dripper and rinse with hot water to eliminate the taste of paper. Add 15g of medium-ground coffee. Pour 250ml of hot water (92-94°C) in slow, circular motions, starting from the centre and moving outward, allowing the coffee to bloom, and continue pouring until the desired amount of water has passed through.

CARE You can rinse, hand wash with soap, or place this set in the dishwasher. Our cloth filters are reusable (though not forever!). For best results, rinse the cloth filter with hot water a few times before brewing, and after use, rinse again and air dry. Avoid wringing or squeezing them dry, as this can affect their shape. Over time, these filters may shrink slightly, so some adjustments to grind size, brewing time, and ratio may be needed to perfect your brew. To be completely honest, we’ve been using cloth filters exclusively for the past three years, and we wouldn’t dream of going back to paper. We’re confident you’ll enjoy the same results!

COLLABORATION This gift box is a collaboration with Rajiv Eipe, an illustrator and animator known for his picture books, comics and short films. He’s also known to keep an untidy desk, doodle endlessly, drink copious amounts of coffee and stare blankly into space when deadlines loom. We couldn’t think of a more fitting co-conspirator for this box that celebrates ants, slow coffee, and the joy of noticing the little things.

DESIGN Why ants? Because, to grow good coffee, one needs ants! Ants are remarkable indicators of ecological health in coffee farms because they play essential roles in pest control, soil aeration, and nutrient cycling. Their presence often signals a balanced ecosystem, as they keep pest populations in check and contribute to the soil's richness. By studying ant diversity, we get insights into the farm’s overall biodiversity, showing how interconnected and resilient the environment truly is. Plus, they're funny, cute little creatures with fascinating social structures, making them fab mascots for sustainable farming!

Here’s an ode to ants: our coffee companions all the way from farms right up to our kitchen counters!
