I'm team Aeropress, but I don't mind shitty Folgers either
I used to make coffee with an Aeropress! Or, technically, I made Americanos. That plus fresh-ground quality beans made the best coffee I ever had. That was in the "before times", meaning, before I had kids, and time wasn't quite as precious as it now is.
I still grind whole beans, but use a regular old drip maker. Gets me 80% there with 20% of the effort.
I resorted to a <gasp> Keurig about a year ago, just because I didn't have time to bother with a traditional old coffee maker...
It's nowhere near as good, the pods are just too dang expensive, and I feel like I'm single-handedly killing dolphins every time I toss a pod in the trash can... My machine is starting to get a bit iffy, every few cups it decides to make about a 1/4 cup of cold watered down coffee...
When it finally dies I'm going back to a plain old drip coffee maker...
My in-laws love their Keurig and they buy the super ultra mega premium pods and the coffee is still just OK. They found some ultra premium coffee in biodegradable pods, so less environmental impact (in theory).
I'm actually finding that bean grinding is getting to be too much of a time sink, and the wife is completely checked out on it. At work, we have Nespresso machines. I always thought they were just for espresso, but a co-worker gave me the rundown on them, and it seems like they're actually a straight up better Keurig. For one, the pods are aluminum; they come with a postage pre-paid bag for the used pods. You can simply drop the bag in the mailbox, and they go to a facility where the aluminum is recycled and the coffee is composted. Assuming the process actually works as advertised, it should be significantly better than Keurig in terms of environmental impact.
It does make espresso, but also coffee (or maybe Americano), and the coffee pods we have here at work are way better than the Keurig junk, and at least on-par with the drip stuff I usually bring from home. I'm really tempted to get one for home, and the wife is strongly advocating for it.
Only downside I can see is that the pods aren't particularly cheap. But if it gives me more time for pedal building, it might just be worth it!
