I'm a cafetière man, personally.

While I'd like one of those several-hundred-quid flash coffee making machines, I (a) can't afford it and (b) don't have the space for one in the current flat. Maybe when we've moved…

My family has all fallen for the charms of the Tassimo, since Mark & Jo bought one for La Taupanne, but I'm less convinced myself. While it makes nice enough coffee, I miss the ritual involved with the French press, and am worried about the environmental impact of all those plastic pods.
