Lovin' The Homestead
So I drink coffee every day, but only about two cups. I used to use a drip coffee maker, but found that the last quarter of the bag of coffee was undrinkable because it takes little ol' me so darn long to drink it. I got a Keurig coffee maker, the kind that makes one cup at a time, from the K-cup. I thought it would reduce the amount of coffee I wasted. It's turning out to be too expensive. (DUH! What was I thinking?)
Anyway, I like the thought of grinding my own coffee each day. Or even once a week. The electric ones seem iffy. Either cheap and flimsy, or strangely expensive. If I'm going to invest my money, I feel more comfortable doing so in a good old fashioned manual grinder. But the decent ones are something like $60.
So my question is, should I get the $15 electric one I found on Amazon, and hope it lasts, or save and get the $60 manual one that will never break? Are the manual ones dependable enough to merit the expense? Are they overrated?
