Get plastics out of your body and the body of anyone you care about

[easy_c]

To avoid microplastics in my coffee I do pour over style brew. A couple big names are Chemex and Hario brewers and filters. You get one of those systems and then you're supposed to use a goose-neck kettle to properly control the flow rate.

I order a few pounds of organic roasted beans online and put most of it in the freezer (gotta get that free shipping!). If circumstances were right I'd order green beans and roast my own on demand.

How about those Keurig coffee pods though eh, those things must fill you with the maximal plastics per brew

Or buy a glass cold brewer. It's way less harsh on the stomach when prepared that way.

I have one of those crazy automatic coffee machines at the house and in my main office, the one that will make you any kind of coffee you want automatically. Well half the whole damn thing is plastic, I'm not going to use it anymore huge waste of money.....I don't know why I didn't even think about it when I got them.

I just picked up one of these guys for the house, got it today and inspected it the coffee never touches any plastic the inside is completely steel. For the office it wouldn't be large enough I'm thinking to get a big "urn" like the ones you see at large events, many of them are also entirely steel. This is pretty much the same concept just in a smaller form, going to test it out first.

Alright so update on this thing, I definitely do recommend! The coffee tastes better, less acidic and chemical tasting, even if you leave it and let the coffee stay hot. In a plastic maker you better drink that coffee as soon as it's ready otherwise it tastes like chemical sludge, not with this thing.

It's a little more involved than a plastic fantastic pot but nothing crazy and it's easy to clean, I'm very happy with it. Others have also commented that the coffee made with it is very good. I'm going to get a larger "urn" style one for the warehouse.
