@sinituulia I haven't seen that video - it sounds amusing!

Before I had a real coffeepot and/or a need for more than one cup of coffee at a time, I used a re-usable steeping thingie. It takes up next to no space and makes perfect single cups (once you figure out exactly how much coffee to put in and how long to let it steep for your taste). Bonus: it also works for tea.

It is this thing - https://primulaproducts.com/products/coffee-brew-buddy

@emery Ah yes, a fine small sieve. 😄 I feel like a lot of marketing budget has gone onto making this slightly more convenient and slightly better result product sell for a lot more than, you know. A small steel sieve that you buy once, and if you don't let it rust, lasts for some 30 years!

The video, though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UALN1ZoN6bA

@sinituulia But the steel one doesn't fold flat! and it is less fine than the mesh bag, so harder to wash. (And I bought it for less than $5, so... there's that, too.)

Hm, maybe I need a fancy bedside coffeemaker alarm clock! :)
