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.

    Areas where groups of different people with different tastes gather and can pick a coffee that’s better suited to their taste.

    Also places where people have different concepts of cleanliness

      Flashbacks of the mold infested coffee machine in my first office that just stood there for half a year with the old grounds still inside. Everyone ignored it and made coffee downstairs where someone else had to clean it 🤢

        That’s exactly what happened at my office. The moldy coffee pot stayed there for about a year before someone threw the whole thing away.
