I used to be a “press-button-for-stale-pods” person. I’m not proud of it. I was in a dark place, financially and caffeinely. Then I tried a commercial single cup machine with a grinder, and I swear I heard angels harmonizing.
The first sip was a revelation. It was warm, rich, and full of nuance. Plus, I saved a small fortune by buying bulk beans instead of overpriced plastic cups. My wallet shed a single tear of joy.
