Single cup coffee makers | BCBusiness
Three top-notch, single-cup coffee makers – because that questionable carafe of coffee in your office kitchen tastes about as good as it looks.
Ah, the coffee break. A nostalgic throwback to a simpler time when folks gathered around the water cooler to discuss the previous night’s Ed Sullivan Show. Today, the idea of a 15-minute break away from your desk seems a nearly ludicrous luxury, and at three dollars and up a pop, the communal Starbucks run gets a little pricey over time. You could always scrape the bottom of the office kitchen carafe – the one filled with coffee that may be fresh or may have been made last Friday. The reasonable solution for the average Joe or Josephine is to make their own cuppa right at their desk. These streamlined and stylish single-cup coffee makers have a small footprint, but perk up some big flavour.
