i guess i represent the Haphazard Coffee Makers Guild here. i typically wake up bleary eyed, disoriented, and stumbling into the kitchen so this is how i make coffee:
1. tap water into the coffee pot
2. throw a handful of coffee grounds at the coffee machine
3. turn on the coffee pot
4. turn on the kitchen light
sometimes, i actually get coffee out of this process.
seriously, i do need try the french press method one day. it looks fancy.
