- bserge 5y agoIt's the fucking Juicero of coffee. If you put it that way, no wonder that company got so much funding. Seems juice drinkers are smarter than coffee guzzlers lol
- ewoodrich 5y agoI won't deny the packaging is wasteful but as someone who isn't a coffee connoisseur and lives by myself it's an easy way to make a decent cup or two at home with basically zero effort. And at 25 cents or so a cup the cost is fine personally, I just wish it didn't generate all that plastic waste.
- ianai 5y agoI find the French press easy enough to do quickly - and the waste goes fine down the disposal. It's also free of any plastics so long as I use a glass/steel press. Only takes 4 minutes and a supply of hot water. I've been known to heat the water up in another coffee mug (preferably a tempered glass measuring cup) in the microwave in a pinch.
- chrisseaton 5y ago> and the waste goes fine down the disposal Shouldn't it go into compost rather than into the water supply?
- ianai 5y agoIn a perfect universe where real estate isn't priced out of my reach, sure.
- LesZedCB 5y agocause you allegedly need to own property to compost..? a bucket in a freezer works great if you have zero room. a small pot indoors with a lid works if there's municipal compost.
- acheron 5y agoMore to the point, coffee grounds are terrible for drain pipes. Do not put them down your sink unless you enjoy paying plumbers more than you need to.
- chrisseaton 5y agoNot sure why you mention Keurig? This isn't a Keurig product, or a competitor to Keurig as far as I know? It's instant coffee. Keurig is ground coffee.
