Also see making coffee versus Nespresso. Although I like to tell myself that the old fashioned way is objectively better with coffee.

- v-erne 4y agoGreat example - my Moccamaster since I bought it few months ago is used ten times more than capsule machine that stands next to it. And I'm not sure if the coffe is really better - but it does not matter because the morning ritual makes the experience so much better, that I cannot imagine going back to capsules.
- Hoasi 4y agoCoffee capsules' business model relies on convenience to create unnecessary waste. Capsules of coffee taste worse and provide no improvement whatsoever. Why do this? Marketing creates a fake need, even though better solutions to brew coffee already exist. It's all about marketing convenience without innovation. You pay a higher tax for unnecessary capsule packaging, additional pollution, and waste.
- matwood 4y agoYes! I make pour over coffee almost every morning. It's a ritual where I take a few minutes of quiet and plan my day.
- stephen_g 4y agoI don’t think that’s a great example - with good beans and a good grinder and machine, you should be able to do miles better than Nespresso. Even the larger pod systems have quite a small quantity of grounds so tend towards over-extraction for a decent sized shot.
