Yes! Not drinking melted plastic is a nice benefit. All metal pieces, dump the used grinds in the garden, put the pieces in the dishwasher, quick rinse of the pot.Exactly what I use. It makes great coffee. Besides the advantages you mentioned, the water/coffee is never in contact with plastic.
What exactly are you showing, as it's not coming up in my browser?Ugh... i love the convenience of the keurig, but not the coffee that it makes. I have something like this. It takes a little longer (<5 mins), but it's simple, you can make a few regular cups at a time (i say regular, because the etchings for 2, 4, 6, cups are way smaller than regular cups), and it's easy enough to clean. The coffee comes out way better and you can make it as strong or weak as you want.

HAH! I still have my old Farberware electric percolator that I had way back when I was at RU. Haven't used that in decades.Electric perculator. $29 on Amazon.
Guy from my town and HS invented the Kuerig. Living the dream nowYou can get green mountain kcups for the keurig coffee machine, which are sold most anywhere. The keurig has made it easier for me to consume coffee, though not sure about the environmental impact of all those kcups.
keurig is a scam...weak coffee and you pay extra for the stupid cups
I went to a Starbucks over the weekend with a friend who wanted a cup of their coffee. I got a cup of tea. Apparently their tea sucks also. Next time I'll try hot cocoa and see if they can f**k that up too.
McDonalds? Save yourself a buck and just consume untreated sewage. Same s---. Literally.You can even get better coffee at McDonalds than at Starbucks. Just try them side by side if you don't believe it!

Did you get the cold brew sock? Still using a French press but sometimes leaves some grit behind. Sieve I got isn't fine enough, so think I'm going to try the sock. Been loving cold brew at home.
Paragraphs are your friendThe size of the coffee chain and quality do not correlate. Starbucks filled a huge need by offering a place to sit down for a short break, lunch, rest, etc. in cities that did not exist. I remember that in NYC in the early 80's there were very few coffee hoses. You had to go to the west coast to find more, especially in San Francisco. If you have travelled to Europe, you found one at every corner in the center of major cities. There was a major unfilled need since people longed for an alternative places to bars to socialize or just rest for a while. Starbucks positioned itself also by introducing the bolder, dark roasted style coffees that they were sure to become successful. It was never their coffee, but a clean place to sit down for a short time for few bucks that was the most attractive to the public. They knew that people acquire taste for their bold coffee rather quickly. The example was the quite boring Budweiser lines of beers and the bland, hardly drinkable Miller Light, which have gained such a large market share. They figured out that advertisements would work well and people who wanted to be part of the image Starbucks projected will come and eventually like, even love the taste of their coffee. They were right, the best sellers are rarely among the best, whether you are talking about drinks or books, they are simply products that appeal to the masses or if you are smart and have big pockets, you can brainwash the masses to buy your product even if there are much higher quality f products are on the market. As I wrote earlier, the choice is yours, you can buy wild fish or farm raised fish, you can buy processed food or natural food, you can buy organic chicken or mass produced chicken with antibiotics that do not even work anymore, you can by GMO or non-GMO products and the list can go on and on. Going back to coffee, if you work in the Financial District, as I do, you could get great coffee from Financiers at three locations and the pastry there is second to none!
percolated coffee with fresh ground beans is by far the best brew you will getRecently bought a percolator based on your recommendation. Makes great coffee fast. No more of a hassle to clean them drip coffee maker. Thanks for the suggestion.
