I like a cup of the Starbucks plain black coffee with no
sugar, creamer, or flavorings. We live in the boonies where
SB doesn’t venture among us Great Unwashed. I like
McDonald’s black coffee, too. I hope enough real people
will get enough of Starbucks political pontificating and
boycott them in favor of some other reasonable place.
Most days, I drink strong instant coffee at home. Nescafe
is good instant coffee. I used to brew Mr. Coffee; but it
got to be messy to fix. At 70, I’m looking for an easy way
out.

Have you considered K-Cups? Just saw an epi of ATK that tested the machines, and they choose the $200 Cuisinart as their pick, with the K-Cup brand as the next best.

Part of their consideration was the size of the reservoir. I use a Melitta v-cone Cuisinart in the AM, and an Aeropress for the last cup of the day.
