I'll take a Mr. Coffee Pot with a nice ground breakfast blend over your fancy espresso's, french press, fruity little latte's, any day of the week.
I still make my morning coffee in a 25 year old Mr. Coffee drip coffee maker. I don’t know how ridiculous this seems, but I’ve never even had a coffee or espresso or whatever from one of those places.

When I was growing up my parents and grandparents both had one of these.
I couldn't tell you what quality of coffee it made because I was only ever allowed coffee milk at that age. Basically, a little bit of coffee and a lot of milk.
I see used ones for sale on sites like ebay and sometimes consider buying one just to see how it does and for the memories.

I can go with a pretty basic cup of coffee. Buying a $1500 DeLonghi machine for the wife was kind of hard to do but she had been wanting one and said she'd stop getting Starbucks if we had that.
I will say, the thing is pretty sweet and I like making some fancy coffee/latte's now. And she for the most part has stopped her Starbucks runs.

Can someone explain what makes espresso "fancy" or gay or whatever? It's still just ground coffee and a little bit of water.
This is like saying you're more of a man because you drink your whiskey with water and ice instead of neat.

My coffee starts brewing at 3:50am and I'm out of bed at 4:01, take a leak, and grab my first cup of piping hot black coffee.
My 4-5am block is basically church.

I've had a Nespresso Vertuo machine for the last 10+ years but I also have a Bunn commercial-grade drip machine, the type that has a heated reservoir of water and starts brewing as soon as cold water is poured in. I bought it from a neighbor for $10.

I guess maybe because their grandpa didn't drink it? Or they think it's just a flavored iced drink?
It's coffee, just a different method of brewing.

Yep, just a little bit stronger. Can make it with a cheap moka pot on the stovetop like most Italians do at home. The coffee is ground a lot finer. The only difference with starbucks etc. is they add all that steamed milk, a lot of sugar, and a bunch of extra "squirts" of shite that isn't needed.

It’s funny how they do that.
