I think daily intake of cinnamon in cappuccino is risky for the internal organs if that is your staple choice.

Yes, like 'coffee good/bad for health' there is a balance of both sides if you google 'the word' 'plus 'dangers'.

My Barista is a microprocessor.

Same. If only it was a little more consistent. I've had cups that were absolutely spectacular and some that were not great.
But then again, not the greatest coffee maker in the world. Maybe I should start working on my coffee setup now that my headphone setup is done for now. Hi-fi coffee coffee filters, silver power cables, where should I start? :D

Do you think I should go for solid state or tubes? Open or closed cups? So many options!

I was actually thinking about it, and maybe I should look to up my coffee game. My biggest problem is that I am in a dorm so I would need something all-in-one that Doesn't take up much desk space, so the keurig seemed like a logical choice. But lately I've been wondering if there was something that was similar in function but better in terms of quality. Something to look up I suppose.

Put Sorbothene damping material inside, but not too much, or the 3rd coffee note will roll-off/shelf and it will reduce instrument separation/air.

More wattage, can never have enough power. And to carry that power you will need one of those $1K power cords and a power conditioner to eliminate line noise which affects the crema.
And don't forget to update the software, you don't want any bugs in your coffee, do you?

Though I don't personally own one, I'm positive that you can get a machine that fits your needs and makes a hella good cup of joe. I have a buddy of mine that basically bought what Starbucks uses to make there espresso but for personal use. Said it cost him around $1,200 but damn does it taste good :) A little research could definitely lead you to what you are looking for. Good luck with your search.

I know a lot of professional espresso machines you see at shops are like $20k+. Mine is pretty simplistic but it was kind of fun learning how much the grind, tamping, etc can effect a brew.
 
@PL4Y3R 0N3 French press dude! Pre ground coffee is right around the perfect consistency and all you need is some hot water. *plot twist* use the Keurig as a kettle

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT!!!
I can't believe I never considered that. I'll have to start looking for a really small French press now, and then I'll use the keurig as a kettle on days where I have to lime to actually make coffee. Genius!

French press is great. Theyre small, cheap, easy to use/clean, and it only takes a few minutes start to finish
