A dog begins eating a dusty old coil of rope but there's a nail in it.

I've just gotten into coffee myself, and while I have no bean related knowledge to lend (a friend lets me have some of whatever they order and roast themselves), I got the clever coffee dripper as shown in the OP and it's fairly amazing.

While this guy does make some very good points - the whole post is dripping (heh) with so much negativity and "K-cups are horrible and you are horrible for using them" that it almost made me get up and go run a cup through my machine just out of spite.

That said, I think this thread has inspired me to dust off our Zojirushi and see about finally getting a decent burr grinder in the near future :)

I don't think bringing up good points about the hypocrisy of painting oneself as an eco-friendly company when they're actually the most wasteful coffee making method out there is overly 'negative'. My understanding is that Keurig makes 'okay' coffee compared to what most people usually get, but it's still pricey, wasteful, and not doesn't produce coffee anywhere near as fresh or consistently good as a 'proper' setup.
