Coffee bong for the win.
Gotta have good beans, but with those, this is great.
Looking after the kids in the morning meant I had no time to make "real" coffee and had to drink that stuff.
Now the magical coffee box on the end of the counter does it all for me with the press of one button.
Which one you got? Mine is this one

And for an entry level machine I am super impressed, build quality a bit plasticky but apparently they all share the same brew unit inside which is where it matters.. it is big but it is taking up less space than my gaggia and iberital grander which can both go now, delonghi for coffee, tassimo for tea and hot choc and nespresso for upstairs

and I agree it's very well made. I used to be a design engineer, so I can be picky but the way it's been thought out and put together is very good IMHO.
Whats the general feeling on the coffee? Coarser ground stuff? Any particular brand I should give a go?

It's maybe a bit wanky, but don't care... a great cup of coffee is worth spending a few quid on. And it's much better for me than the thousands of pounds I used to waste on tobacco (and still waste on alcohol... that's not a waste though, is it?)
Everybody should have an Aeropress, with fresh beans they are a really inexpensive way to great coffee, once you get your method perfected. Still much cheaper and better than coffee chain coffee.
Would like a bean-to-cup as well however, using an Aeropress for more than yourself is a pita.
