I don't like it

Good if you're in a hotel room or at the office. Besides that no.

A godsend if you have ADHD. It's the only way I can make coffee for myself in the morning consistently

>>17334552
They suck, Nespresso is ok but expensive as fuck

>>17334552
I make instant coffee instead.

Plastic that is heated is highly estrogenic.

>>17334647
It's aluminium

>>17334647
You're highly estrogenic so it'd fit you perfectly

>>17334655
Does this look estrogenic to you?

>>17334552
I've got a Nespresso at my office, it's pretty good. I'd never buy one myself though, too expensive and I don't drink enough coffee to justify it

Fuck that noise

It's shit in every way but the concept is a blessing for workplaces with room temp IQ workers.
I'm no hippy but the amount of watse it produces is appalling desu.

>>17334561
It's your choice

Nespresso at least has bags available that you can put your pods into, then UPS will come pick up the bag when it's full so they can be emptied and recycled. Keurig expects the customer to go into the machine, take out all the old pods, remove the plastic covering, clean out all the grounds, wash the pod, and then put it in the recycling bin. Needless to say, literally no one does that at my workplace. All the Keurig pods just get thrown out, and it is indeed massively wasteful.

Nespresso is excellent and while not cheap, it's way cheaper than any other espresso set up. Love mine.

>>17334552
Get one of the reusable pods and use your favorite ground coffee. It's so much cheaper and less wasteful.

>UPS drive to your house and drive to a recycling depot
>look at me Greta, I'm recycling

absolute state

beats instant but worse than any other method of brewing

>>17334690
Big espresso seething right now

>>17334671
Manlets belong in dresses and thigh stockings

I think it's a waste of money and resources for inferior coffee. My mom loves it.

>>17334626
Why?

I ask because my dyslexic gf loves pod coffee but I never really understood why

>>17334552
highly degenerate
the coffee equivalent of pic related

if you just want a fast repeatable cup there are tons of cheap and effective non-pod consooming methods.

if you want fancy ass coffee there are plenty of good ways to make that as well.

the only place pods make sense maybe is an office waiting room or something.

>>17334552
Great for pod people

>>17335017
Say that to my face

>>17334552
Incredibly wasteful.

>>17334671
It piss

>>17334552
I haven't had it in like 10 years but it must cost like $90 for a pod now right

>>17334671
Excuse me, my mistake sir.

>>17335125
$0.60 on Amazon, not very significantly more than you'd spend if you were making an equal quality cup from a standard espresso machine

Are they really wasteful if I recycle it(in a country with a functional recycling system)? Doesn't seem more wasteful than a can of soda at that point.

>>17334891
i use these myself since im a lazy piece of shit, but i'd still prefer a french press. these pods dont give my drink enough flavor i feel

>>17334683
Based

I'm one of the biggest slobs on planet earth and even I have 6 minutes in the morning to put on a kettle, wash my press, and then press a new batch of coffee. it's hot water and beans guys

It tastes like instant coffee because it is.

I just microwave a mug of water and add instant
It tastes like ass
But all coffee does so cheap and easy it is

>>17338625
if you just want the caffeine, check out caffeine pills. I get a pack of 24? for like $4 at kroger and its easier on my stomach

Pods are great for normies who want to put as little thought as possible into their daily coffee.

>microwave a mug
Spot the American and their shite domestic electricity supply.
