Big or small?
That is the question, whether it's better to
have just a bit or more than a handful. Candy bars go from full-size to
fun-size and back again. And iPhones get bigger while iPads get smaller.
Which would you like, an iPhone 6 Plus or an
iPad Air 2. How about an I don't care anyhow?
Even Keurig has gotten into it. Yes
Keurig, the pioneer of single serving coffee. Brewed a cup at a time in
environmental havoc wreaking containers because, you know, it's a crime in
these here United States of Coffee to have a stale cup putrefying in a carafe.
On the one hand, it's a vindication
for us confirmed bachelors. Finally, a food item that isn't super-sized or only
on sale at 2-for-the-price-of-1. On the other hand, it ignores the communal
nature of sitting around drinking coffee with your friends or family. If you
have to brew a single cup each for 6 people, by the time you're done with the
6th one, the first guy's ready for a refill.
So Keurig has made the change. The
new Keurig 2.0 can also brew a carafe. Holy Mr. Coffee Batman, Keurig can
create a carafe?
Yes indeed, just in time for the
holidays, you and your family can enjoy the convenience of a whole pot of
coffee. Of course the Keurig isn't just like Mister Coffee. Instead of the
annoying filter and coffee measuring inconvenience, you get the classic Keurig
pod. It's just bigger. The "iPod 4 minus" I call it. Because it
barely serves 4.
I'll hold off before I adopt this one.
Not sure the technology is totally debugged. Or debrewed. Maybe I'll wait until
they come out with a 50s retro family economy size.
The Keurig urn.
America, ya gotta love it.
