    What’s the quickest way to make coffee? As long as it doesn’t taste like sewage I don’t care how good it is tbh.

      Best single cup and easy? A Clever Dripper. It’s a cone shaped cup that you put a filter and grounds in. Add hot water, let it sit for 2-3 minutes. When you set it on top of your cup a stopper moves and the coffee drains from the filter into your cup. Cleanup is dumping the filter and a rinse. Half asleep me makes it every morning.

      Yeah but then a Senseo does the same with a fraction of the waste. Or a Nescafé with still a fair bit of waste but much less already.

      And those are just direct competitors that ultimately do the exact same thing.

      Another really fast option for far superior coffee is a small French press for single portions.

      And of course there’s actual fully automated espresso/coffee makers but those are really pricey by comparison so eh.

      But my favorite solution? A timed switch on a drip coffee maker. Got me by for years, cheaper in operation, more variety, less waste.

        If you’re okay with a pod machine, just buy instant. I always have some handy on those “shit I don’t have time to wait for a pot to brew” days.

        I have a philips fully auto espresso maker, and it’s cheaper than a keurig after something like 600 cups. Which for my household is less than a year’s worth of coffee. Granted, that breakeven calculation depends on comparing to using k cups not reusable filters.
