Its portability is a fantastic feature, making it ideal for taking with you on the go, whether you’re heading to work, travelling, or enjoying a day out. I also really value its environmentally conscious design, as it offers a practical way to reduce reliance on single-use drinks and packaging.
Overall, it’s a high-quality, versatile, and convenient product that I will be using all the time. I would highly recommend it to any coffee or tea drinkers!

I used mine on a recent golf trip to Scotland. Waking up before dawn and still being able to make a proper cup from my own beans was a first for me. Having my favourite coffee before a round sounds like a small thing, but on a trip like that it genuinely mattered — and it delivered every morning.

I've always preferred a French Press over a Moka Pot or more sophisticated coffee machines. It's simple, reliable, easy to use, and consistently makes a great cup of coffee.
Then I got my hands on the GROUNDD xpress, and my immediate reaction was: "How has nobody thought of this before?" It combines everything I love about a French press with the convenience of a travel cup. You brew, stop the extraction exactly when you want, and drink from the very same cup. No extra gear, no mess, and almost no cleanup.
The build quality is outstanding. Every material feels premium, every detail has clearly been thought through, and the design isn't just beautiful, it's genuinely functional! I had the chance to meet Nick, the creator, and it became obvious that nothing about this product was left to chance.
If you're looking for a simpler, more practical, and more sustainable way to enjoy great coffee without sacrificing flavour or aroma, I can't recommend the GROUNDD xpress enough. It's one of those products that instantly becomes part of your daily ritual (and it also makes an incredible gift ;))
P.S. I also use it to brew loose-leaf tea from time to time, and it works perfectly. The filter does an excellent job, and there's absolutely no lingering coffee flavour. That's a testament to the quality of the materials...they really make a difference.

How it works
Six steps, start to last sip.
No filters to buy, no pods, no second cup to wash up.
-
Step 1
Add your grounds or leaves
One lidful of medium grind coffee, or a tablespoon of loose leaf tea.
-
Step 2
Add hot water
Fill it up and let it brew. About four minutes for coffee, less for tea.
-
Step 3
Attach the plunger and lid
The lid seals as it goes on, so nothing spills while the brew develops.
-
Step 4
Plunge to pause the brew
When it tastes right, press down. Extraction stops and the strength is locked in.
-
Step 5
Add milk or sweetener
Optional. Unlock the shaft, add what you like, then reconnect.
-
Step 6
Drink from the cup, or seal it and go
Take the lid off and drink from the glass, or seal the anti spill lid and take it with you.
See it work
One shows the whole ritual, one shows what the plunger does inside the cup.
What is the GROUNDD xpress?
A reusable brewing cup for real tea and coffee. Add your leaves or grounds, brew to your taste, plunge to pause the extraction, then drink straight from the same cup.
How is it different to a French press?
Same immersion brewing, none of the pain points. The pausing plunger locks in the flavour, so you never over brew, and you never need a second cup. The anti spill lid means you can take it with you.
Does it work for both tea and coffee?
Yes, it was designed for both from day one. Steep to your taste, plunge to lock in the flavour, drink from the same cup. It also handles matcha, yerba mate and cold brew.
How big is it, and will it fit my cup holder?
The glass holds 355ml, about one and a half standard cups, sized for an 18 to 20g coffee dose. The diameter is close to a drink can, so it fits virtually every car cup holder. The whole thing weighs about 500g.
How do I clean it?
Rinse after each use. The borosilicate glass, Tritan lid and steel filter are all dishwasher safe. Hand wash the plunger, skirt and walnut sleeve, and dry everything before storing.
Is it guaranteed?
Every GROUNDD xpress is backed by the Forever Guarantee. It is designed to be repaired, not replaced. Manufacturing defects are covered by component replacement for up to five years, and replacement parts stay available well beyond that.
What does shipping cost?
Nothing. Every Founders Edition order ships free, applied automatically at checkout.
The story
Designed in Margaret River.
GROUNDD was drawn up at home in the south west of Western Australia, between the ocean and the karri forest. It is a place of slow mornings and long drives, where the good coffee is usually behind you and the view in front of you is the reason you came.
That is the whole brief. A cup you can brew properly at a trailhead, on a headland, or on the way to work, then drink from without carrying a second thing home. Nick brought 25 years of manufacturing and product development to it. Astra, an Ayurvedic practitioner and a tea drinker, brought the pause.
Nick and Astra, GROUNDD
Purpose
Built to be repaired, not replaced.
Look at the logo. The straight line above the O is how most things are made: raw material in one end, landfill out the other. The O is the other way round, something made once and passed on, repaired instead of thrown out.
So every major component is a product in its own right, and every one of them is on the shelf as a spare. Lose a seal, break a piece, or just want a refresh, and you replace that part rather than the whole object. Each material was chosen for what it is genuinely good at: steel alloy, silicone, brass, stainless, borosilicate glass and walnut. The packaging is recycled paper and plant based inks.
More than 1% of every sale goes to clearing plastic from the ocean and our waterways, through 1% for the Planet.
