Wife and I are coffee snobs, seriously. We used go use our Vue by Keurig but realized the plastic from the cups does seep into the brewed coffee. We bought a press and started buying beans and grinding them using a coffee burr/mill grinder. Our favorites so far are kicking horse, Deathwish coffee and valhalla by deathwish. Going to try bulletproof once or twice and continue to use the same beans. We drink coffee everyday out of enjoyment, not necessity. I'm usually up at 6 every day, even on the weekends and do not need coffee to wake up. If you need coffee to wake up, it means you have a poor diet, no energy and are addicted to coffee and cannot not have it.
Yup, seems that just about any home coffee maker you buy is full of plastic parts where hot water flows, causing that leaching effect. I stopped using them and bought a small French Press and a tea kettle for the hot water. Coarsely Grind up some Colombian coffee at the local market. I've definitely notice a different, more wholesome taste. I always need to have my "cafe con leche".
