    A cheapass drip coffee maker makes a decent coffee, is mechanically simple as fuck and easy to clean, I got one for like 30 euros and if I don’t use it for months I just don’t care.

    We have a coffee machine at work for the lattes amd espressos or go out and drink one there if you want. Having an expensive coffee machine at home is a waste unless you are a serious caffeine addict, which to be fair, I would be if not for all the anxiety it causes me.

      Yeah definitely, plus people give drip coffee a bad name because it’s not “posh” enough, as if it isn’t one of the best balances of coffee qualities you can achieve. It’s not like espresso coffee was invented because it’s “better”, it’s just very quick + semi-automated to produce a shot and hence economical for coffee shops and bakeries.

      Plus drip coffee systems are, like you say, insanely simple. Which is a good thing!

      Drag’s dragon is a big time coffee addict and still insists on boiling water in the microwave like a ridiculous American.
