After bad experiences with the taste of different coffee pod varieties, I am also due to the high energy consumption and high cost, switched primarily also because of the waste of a good, old Melitta coffee machine.
For me it was a priority to the following points for buying:
1. ground coffee, which you can buy in different varieties, also inexpensive and metered himself at will, as desired. In the morning, perhaps a stronger coffee and in the afternoon a slightly Erten something. Including a permanent filter even expects the acquisition of this low price hundreds of times.
2. a budget because Kaffeepad- and Coffee capsule machines are for me in their purchase prohibitively expensive and especially the pads and capsules are not really cheap and most of all the packaging waste is a key point, which is why for me a coffee in their economy and price quality ratio is unbeatable.
3. ease of care, a similar machine that is operated with pads or capsules must as otherwise such a machine be decalcified and requires a lot of care, especially the small parts, such as coffee pod holder with its microsieve, the water tank and the means for brewing often need a lot care and many components of the machine require special attention.
4. thermos with which I can brew some more coffee and enjoy the coffee later and he especially pretty long stays fresh and warm. Although an equivalent coffee glass jug also the rest.
Conclusion:
I want you to perhaps guess what to think of the benefits of coffee and times attributed to the purchase of a coffee time with a coffee pod machine, or capsule machine from environmental considerations. For me there is future only coffee from the good old coffee.
