I have a Cuisinart 14 cup electric coffee maker. It came with a reusable gold toned filter.
On the top of the coffee machine is a label that says the filter is inside the machine and paper ones are unnecessary. The instruction manual is the house guide.
There is also a 10 cup French press, and a little Krups grinder.
(Keep in mind I rent out a 3 bedroom house for up to 5 people. If I had a smaller place, I’d scale down the size of the coffee makers.)
There are both whole bean coffee and ground coffee.
There was a nice Kitchen-Aid electric kettle, but this weekend’s guests thought it was a traditional kettle and put it on the gas stove.
Fortunately they left cash to replace it. I need to go get a new one today. I’ll probably create a label to put on it.
“Electric kettle, do not put on stove.”
Sigh. I’m afraid guests will think I’m insulting their intelligence.
Pods or k-cups get pretty expensive. As a huge coffee drinker, I don’t like the way they taste. I think the water doesn’t get hot enough. There are also possible health issues with drinking hot beverages that have come in contact with plastic.
