These machines are popping up oddly enough in dental office waiting rooms (I guess it pairs well with teeth whitening services) and regular offices, and they’re just… vile. To me. Yes, I’ve tried several kinds with actual anticipation, just in case.

I live in Folger’s Central, so while this is a good introduction to somewhat better coffee, as long as it’s offered *free* it’s seen as a good equivalent to the dollar endless cup of crap that people are used to. Otherwise, I’d love to turn people on to single cup *pourover brewing at home* for a better experience with better coffee and far less waste and expense than pod after pod after pod being bought at WalMart and chucked into the garbage can.

Clever FTW. Can’t get much simpler than that at home.
