Drop The Drip & Kill the Keurig: Percolate ☮️

I got tired of going to Starbucks in the mornings when I was working from home because of the inconsistent taste of my drip machine and Keurig's ineptitude to prepare a cup that stayed hot to the end. Used paper filter cones from my drip machine, along with piles of used plastic Keurig brew cups, only added to my dislike of processed coffee. and an auto-warm feature that stays on and keeps coffee 25% hotter than Drip or Keurig. The eighth cup is as hot as the first, and the coffee itself is a welcome return to bold, strong flavor. This coffee can be infused with healthy cream without going cold. All parts of the coffee machine are built to last and the environmental impact is negligible compared to alternatives. Scientists around the world believe that discarded Keurig brew cups pose a clear and present threat to the notoriously vulnerable sea turtle species, not to mention California's even more vulnerable residents. Also at risk are the few remaining herds of wild seahorses that still make their homes in the ocean. The machine itself has a solid retro look and brews a cup of coffee in a minute. All working parts of the Farber percolator, except the base, are fully submersible and dishwasher safe. The devices are produced exclusively by conscientious, non-binary union members. Percolation is not a problem for today's coffee drinker, I wish I would have switched to it a few years ago.

Pros
  • Very Good Value
Cons
