For all of you coffee aficionados out there, someone has brewed a thirst-quenching idea for the job site: CoffeeBoxx, a single-serve brewer that is built to withstand water, wind, dust, grime, and impacts.

The product's developer, OXX, launched a fundraising campaign on Kickstarter last month, and is already half way to its goal of raising $50,000 by the end of the year ($26,369 raised in 32 days).  

CoffeeBoxx is waterproof, dust-proof, and spill-proof, and is sealed to IP55 standards. The spill-proof design prevents leaks, even when the appliance is stored on its side. 

Other features:
• Compatible with all K-Cup packs
• 2.5-liter water tank holds 75% more water than the average home coffeemaker
• three-foot retractable chord allows for flexible placement
• rust-proof and crush-proof (you can park a car on it!)
