Another one bites the dust: Mr. Coffee Edition

After four years of intensive use, the household Mr. Coffee croaked.  Just leaked water everywhere, all over the counters and kitchen floor.  Would've been a morning discombobulation of some significance too, if it weren't for the backup Chemex unit.  Much cleaner, and slightly better tasting coffee, but it is a little more trouble, it's not a push-button-and-forget operation.  Think I'll run with that one for a while.


Or, as Will Smith put it in Men in Black II:
Old and busted:
The new hotness:


Rest assured, if something unfortunate happens to the Chemex, there is the camping gear stainless steel percolator waiting as a backup.  Backup, always have a backup.
