What's a good alternative to Keurig
Our Keurig duo just broke. This is the second one we've had (first one broke while still under warranty). I would like to hear some suggestions. Anything that will last longer, better quality, etc.? Or is this just the nature of these kinds of appliances?

Currently, I'm looking at this:

Agree with most of the sentiment to just get a coffee pot (and wake up 5 minutes earlier).

However, to address the actual question, i've had pretty good luck with the Hamilton Beach FlexBrew coffee maker.

That looks like best way to do a pour over. You need to do the pour over slowly while keeping the water as hot as possible to get the most flavor out of the beans. I have a ChemEx pour over which is nice, but I have to use a separate pot to keep the water boiling during the time I’m making it. Pour overs are great, but they just take a little time and effort to make properly.

To reiterate what several posters have already said:

Pour over provides a great cup of coffee with minimal time and bother.

Getting a bur grinder and grinding beans immediately before use resulted in a big boost in coffee quality.

I pretty much stopped when I got the bitterness out of the brew. There is definitely diminishing returns when you get into coffee snobbery, but yeah, buying some dog**** off your shitheel grocery store shelf that was roasted and ground who the hell knows when isn't necessarily the answer.

Plus, I gave him a cheap ass easy ass option to get out of the world of dogshit coffee. If he doesn't like it, he's out $20 and then can go back to K-Cups.

We've had good luck with our Ninja. You've had a few cups out of it. Of course we don't use ours as heavily as you do.

French Press.

Superior coffee, does not take long.

The only annoying thing is throwing out the grounds.

This! Water temperature is exceedingly important. This has a copper kettle inside and brews the perfect temp every time. I have one at home & one at the office.
