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:

I have a 6-cup Hario V60 pour over I use to fill a 1-liter Gint carafe. It takes me 5 minutes to make enough coffee for a whole morning. Total equipment investment is $42. I also grind my own beans fresh daily, so the grinder is extra. It took some experimenting to find the best value bean and the right coffee-to-water ratio, but now I brew the best coffee to my taste simply, economically, and with zero plastic waste.

I switched from French press to pour over. Will never look back.

I bought a pour over and tried to like it. Didn't work. The press coffee is just so rich and full.

Oh, and the other thing is that this particular model lasted less than 1 year with the first one we had. They replaced it under warranty. Perhaps Keurig isn't always top quality?

Has anyone tried the Yeti French Press?
Like all Yeti products, it is overpriced (~$100), but their products are sturdy.
It has insulated walls so coffee stays hot, and they claim some filtration system that halts brewing.

Wondering if anyone thinks its worth the price?

I knew a young lady like that once. Raise her up in the air, smack her bottom 3 times and she'd get right back to work also.....

Yeah, our water is pretty hard - I switched over to filtered water and that has helped with coffee.

I did French Press for years and eventually got tired of the oils and flavor.
A big downside to the press was dealing with loose grounds and cleaning it up after use.

We like the Nespresso machines / coffee. Can make espresso shots or a full cup of coffee. Pods are not overly cheap, but good quality.

This machine is great - I have one at the office that's lasted 6+ years with near daily use.

What's it cost?


I have the Stanley press. Actually my 2-cup version is also Stanley, so I have two of them. They also are both insulated (double-wall construction) and made from stainless steel so very durable. And less expensive. Just not as pretty.

We've loved the Bonavita Connoisseur.

NYTimes Wirecutter currently has the Bonavita Enthusiast as one of their top choices, but it costs $250 vs $180 for the Connoisseur.

I have one with a smaller stainless steel carafe instead of the heating plate but it makes a damn good cup of coffee and also easy to adjust for a half pot. Basically get the results of a pour over if you also have a decent enough grinder.

Ran out of coffee yesterday, woke up this morning had to make myself an instant tasters choice. I have that stored away in the pantry for this situation. It doesn't taste great but 2 heaping tablespoons in a cup sure had more caffeine damn! Went out today and got some better coffee though
