Yup! Got one for 3$ free shipping to my door from Amazon….. no way they could have made any money for me paying 3$…….Moka pot here.
the only way to enjoy coffee
First experience with a moka pot was amazing….. was so curious about it first time I tried it…… made 3 cups in it……. After an hour I felt just how much I had consumed….
How young are you?I had to look up what "paper-filtered" coffee was; as referenced in the study. I assume they mean pour over method like with a melitta cone filter. My take way from that article is that filtering the coffee reduces risk, so maybe I'll try using two paper filters on my brewed coffee and see how that goes, (although I no longer have a high cholesteral risk). On the other hand, a relative-in-law just turned 100 and she drinks a pot of percolated coffee every day so clearly this is just one factor among many that effect levels. Good article though, thanks for posting it !!!
Paper filtered is how coffee was exclusively made for decades......at least in my little sheltered world.
Mr Coffee was the standard in the 70s and 80s when I came up.
In 1990 I while attending college, I was introduced to the French Press. It seemed a lot of work for little added pleasure...from my Folgers and Maxwell House.
Jump to years later, after schooling, and I found gourmet, whole bean coffee. Along with the French Press, my life changed.
Jump to 2017......I stopped all caffeine. It started to give me anxiety attacks and constantly sweaty hands.
For the last 10/12 years, I have switched over to the Kuric Coffee System. Personally, I find the system to be worthy & the variety of products amazing. It makes great coffee! Normally I have 3 cups of coffee every day, which I fully enjoy. I normally do not read articles about coffee or ads or whatever. I really could care less about what anyone's opinions are!
Its not a question of age ... I just wasn't familiar with that expression; now I know that's the term for it.
I don't think the study was using that term for Mr. Coffee maker although it uses a paper filter that is called brewed coffee. BUT I may have read the study wrong and you may be right.
We were heavy tea drinkers. When I was a child we had a percolator (stovetop glass then electric) then when coffee makers came out we had a Mr. Coffee maker. We only used instant coffee for camping or travel. Personally I don't mind french press but ts not worth the messy clean up (maybe I'm doing it wrong). Although I did have to use one for a few hours when I broke my carafe ...until I found the back up carafe in the basement. I love coffee and have been drinking all types since I was about 3 but now I prefer colombian first and anything else second.
P.S. As for my comment above ... double filtering is ok but takes out too much of the rich flavor in my opinion.
@Sig , I retract my point on paper filtered having re-read the study ... they are talking about vending coffee machines where the paper slides across and coffee is dropped on top and the water through it vs machines that mix a liquid wiith hot water. I haven't seen those style machines in many many years. Apparently they are still in use in Sweden. With those, I could never tell the difference between the coffee and the soup.
The Mr. Coffee is home brewed drip method. I now assume the melitta coffee cone would also be home brewed drip method. I stand corrected.
I don't know about the U.S., but in Spain, coffee goes up in price like tobacco. Besides, you don't see as much variety as before in the supermarkets. But chocolate has also gone up in price. They say that this is due to climate problems, in addition to the excess demand. We will have to ask artificial intelligence, hahahahaha.
Percolated. The sound, the splash through the glass knob. The smell. The taste. Finally the heat. All five senses in the making of a cup of coffee. What’s not to love.
About ½ a cup in the morning at home in the Mr. Coffee machine with a paper filter but my favorite is an early morning 16oz dark roast from the WAWA dark before heading out for some upland bird hunting in the fall.
I use a Ninja drip machine for daily coffee.
I’ve used a Bialetti Espresso Maker for probably 35 years when I want an espresso and a French Press alongside it for Americano’s.
If the power is out due to a storm then it’s Cowboy Coffee in a percolator over a Coleman stove or MSR Whisperlite.
My game got better when @AppalachianPipe92 gave me a crash course on temps, weights and a Chemex a couple years ago.
I’ll go without food but not coffee and a pipe !

This is awesome to hear! A small upfront investment, and a little time and willingness to learn yields incredible results. It's truly an eye opener once you experience it.
Glad you're enjoying some good bean water man!
I am Brother. Hope all is finding you well and you’re enjoying the weather down in God’s Country.
I have to agree. Where had that thing been my whole life. And really easy to care for too.Moka pot here.
