    This is on the list of things Mrs. Phibes won't currently let me have. We were buying a microwave last week and she had to escort me away from one of these, quite forcibly. I honestly don't understand - we use a Nespresso machine and with the cost of pods this thing would pay for itself within about 2-3, maybe 5 years.

        I use a single-cup Keurig machine. I'm the only one who drinks coffee in the house, and it's pure convenience. Add water, add pod, get coffee. I like breakfast blend (light/medium) for both taste and it has a bit more caffeine than dark roast I hear. The most important part is my use of K-Cups helps offset @Horace's attempts at preventing Global Warming.

        For the record, I am very confident the quality of coffee could be much better if I put more thought/effort into it. But for me it's a pragmatic (fast + energy) play.

          I'm quite happy with my french press coffee every morning.

          Education is extremely important.

            Same here. I have a Nespresso, and it's OK for taste, but the coffee is never hot enough.

              Nespresso here. I’m of the snobby elitist idea the one can only drink real espresso in Italy and therefore any other option is inferior by definition

                Do you have a milk heater? We nuke the milk in the microwave and then add the coffee. It makes a pretty decent latte.

                  I like Keurig

                  I just need fast, easy

                  I don't care much about taste or temperature or any additives, the sense of taste is fading anyway

                  Just fast coffee is enough

                            Ground up in the freezer.

                                  Overpriced and shouting somebody else's name out.
