coffee pods
Single-serve grounds
Coffee pods are single-serving containers of pre-measured ground coffee, designed for use in specialized brewing machines.
The sealed capsule punctures when inserted, and hot water passes through to produce one cup.
Pods offer convenience and consistency but generate significant plastic and aluminum waste: I switched back to a French press because I felt guilty about all those coffee pods.
