You're on target here. I have become the dumping ground for misbehaving keurigs from family and have managed to make most of them work or frankenstein parts between them. I hate the machines and wish this never happened. I was happy with a french press. Curse my urge to not waste things.

Last sentence is ironic because keurigs waste so much plastic if you use them daily.
It feels like much plastic since you touch each one, but it's a very tiny amount if you weigh your monthly usage.

I don't understand this sentence, I would much rather waste some ground coffee beans and water than plastic.

With a French Press, you don't have to buy and throw away a constant stream of paper filters.
