Can't get much faster than tossing the coffee grinds into a cup and pouring boiling water into it.I would too but whenever I buy a cup from my local roasters I almost always just get what they have on drip since in my opinion the result tastes almost as good as a pour over, costs less and quicker (although the aeropress is very fast too.. I think like a minute to brew or something, like a cross between coffee and espresso), but since I'm not at barista skill level and don't have such high end equipment/ I'd opt for pretty much any method over a player's drip system

Maybe opening a can of cold brew.......
Well the taste is pretty good, but I've been running into a different dilemma lately. Coffee acts like a pretty strong laxative to me, so after I drink it I'll have the runs anywhere from 30 minutes to the next 3-4 hours even.Hows that going have you perfected it french presses aren't too different just filters large grinds
I'll look into that, but I doubt I'll be using a caffeine alternative. My previous heavy consumption of energy drinks without the accompanying bowel issues would suggest that it's probably just the unfiltered coffee that might be upsetting it, or it could be the creamer.Ah that is quite a dilemma, I take a supplement called super seed to keep my system clear (mostly legumes) and read that if soluble fiber causes gastrointestinal discomfort to start with a small amount and work up and your system will acclimate. If you're looking for a caffeine alternative to keep you awake sometimes I take Primatene tablets which is just ephedrine hcl and guaifenesin actualy synergizes realy wel with caffeine but works well enough alone

In any event, a rather unfortunate incident resulted in my mini-expresso pump to be put out of commission, so I put in an order for an Aeropress to see if it lives up to the hype and to see how it compares with the other brewing methods.
I know Peet's anf Caribou bring out a Holiday blend. The Peet's is different every year, but very good. It is just a coffee blend though.
I know some people don't like Starbucks coffee but they come out with a pretty good Christmas blend every year.
Oh yeah I used to go to WAWA when I lived in Philly!
