It's absolutely 100% about speed for me. There is no faster way for me to get my coffee fix any way you cut it, and when I'm under major time pressure I appreciate it a great deal. With some of them the taste is a bit better than others, but there's really no getting around the fact that it's significantly worse than with other brewing methods (on top of being expensive and wasteful). Swiftness is the whole deal.
On a more leisurely day, I will break out the good beans, the grinder and the french press. But all that takes noticeably more time and energy, and when those are in short supply I tremendously value a lightning-quick alternative.
- rorykoehler 8y agoHow often are you under major time pressure? If it's more than a handful of times a year I would focus on fixing that rather than patching over it with bullshit machines that produce inferior product and a mountain of pollution.
