You could get a worm farm, as far as i know worms do ok on coffee and tea grounds, i vaguely remember a talk i went to where this feller was discussing his composting practices, if my memory serves: worms get the coffee and tea, chickens get anything they will eat, everything else goes on the compost heap.

If Santa didn't bring you enough caffeine inducing goodies, you might find something on this list to make you happy.

The brewer I thought would be the most fun is the Gina pour over.

I feel like other then my aeropress a French might be the easiest coffee maker to clean that I own. Rinse with water to wash the grinds out. Unscrew the screen enough to rinse and rescrew. A little soap water in crafe pump some rinse done takes like two minutes.

Any ten cup I have had takes much longer to clean. The Nespresso I have needs less cleanings in-between uses but is pita when it's needed. Percolater is another that takes time to clean.

I have a new espresso maker on the way , the kamira, that I hope makes great espresso with quick clean up

Hey Dave That Would Look Really Cool At Your Next Barbecue A Couple Vintage Percolators,, Even A Table Set Up With Grind Your Own!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those Vets Would Get A Kick Out Of That !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But Then I,m Just A Little Old School!!!!! Heck Who Knows Set Up A Couple Gilletts Along With A Few Straights!!!!!"""My How Life Has Changed Since Nov 2016""""!!!!!!!!!Ty

That's a good idea about the coffee, but not sure sharp objects being available around my cooking is a good idea when it gets to running low on brisket hahaha

Right On Brother Right On<<<<<I Thought You Was Gonna Comeback & Say We Allready Do That!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ty

Love my Lavazza Crema e Aroma beans as my go too most of the year but was given a bag for Christmas I am running this week.

A roaster in the Georgian Bluffs region. They made a nice bitey blend here.
Less crema than my above, by far, due to an oilier bean presumably.
A nice change of pace for the new year.
Cheers gents.

Would that I could but I can't as I am a city dweller feller and have no place for worms or dirt .
