This is a photo of my single cup of coffee I have each morning. When considering which "drink" to feature, I chose this only because of the ritual required to enjoy it. Any other drink - water, wine, Perrier - takes no time to prepare, my morning coffee takes a minimum of 5 minutes.
- Put filter with 1/3 cup of coffee in basket
- Fill reservoir with water to the 8-cup mark
- Push the button
- Wait
- Ding!
- Pour coffee in mug, leaving enough room for half and half
- Add half and half
- Scoop scant teaspoon of demerara sugar
- Stir
- Sip
- Sigh
No other liquid requires - or inspires - the same effort. I even have counter space dedicated to this morning ritual. It's worth it!
(I suppose I could put on the automatic timer, but then I'd miss out on the fun.)
