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.

Damn, thank you for this, I really appreciate it! Gonna go through these and check them out.

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.
