[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP - I don’t like the waste of a Keurig. But maybe I’ll consider it since we won’t be using it so often. Re: a French press, how is that different from a regular coffee maker?[/quote] When you say “regular coffee maker” I assume you are talking about an electric one that has a carafe and a filter area and a reservoir for water. It heats internally and requires a paper or reusable filter. A French press is a pitcher with a mesh strainer. You place coffee grounds in the bottom of the pitcher, fill with boiling water (from electric kettle or stove kettle or microwave or whatever), allow it to brew for 5ish minutes, and then plunge the grounds to the bottom with the strainer. It does not have a heater, plugs into nothing, takes 5 minutes to brew and also 5 minutes to clean. [/quote]
