I have a Nespresso. Makes perfectly decent cups of coffee. I'm getting a second machine for the office. There are third-party pods though I stick with the Nespresso as they have a free pod recycling service (third party pods are plastic and can normally go in your plastic recycling but only if you can be arsed to wash them out after using them).
I also have an Aeropress but its a bit of a faff.Comment
