This is quite exciting in that it removes plastic waste. I see no reason why different companies can’t make different shape ones to maintain their lock-in. I expect a knock-off market to pop-up, but that exists with plastic pods too. It’s a step in the right direction at least.
For fast easy machine single-serve, get a machine that takes beans. They cost about three pod-machines but they’re worth it. The pod-machines are cheaper because they come with vendor lock-in for the pods, and they just profit more on those instead.
Yes. About four years ago I got an automatic espresso machine. Grinds, presses, extracts, done. Good shot everytime. Maybe not as good as an experienced person with a manual machine, but that’s not my goal. Now I can have a double oat milk Latte everyday made at home.
