I am always amazed when someone thinks to write out a recipe for a food where the entire ingredients list and recipe are there in the name: iced coffee. This #keurig machine helpfully explains how to make “easy” iced coffee, as if there was a hard way.
Or is there some little endian big endian debate over whether the coffee or the ice goes in first?

Enshitification in retail.
The same coffee isle before single-use plastic Keurig coffee ‘convenience’ and after.
If you’re using Keurig you don’t give a fuck about the planet.
As per #alttext on pic-2, energy- and processing-wise, far more package than product.
Note as well how competition has taken a backseat to coddling brand giants looking to destroy the competitive market.

What ever happened to #Keurig's zero-plastic K-Rounds and their Alta coffee maker?

I haven't seen anything about it since mid-2024!
@LeoBurr Great example recently was a #Keurig mini that “died” during descaling. A thermal switch tripped - like a little diaphragm thermostat.
You can just push a reset button right?
NOPE!
You need to take apart the machine to reach the button and reset it. I was tempted to drill a little hole in the side plastic so it would be reachable in the future.
I’m convinced that Keurig designs it that way on purpose. “Oh looks like my Keurig just happened to die… time to buy a new one!”
(I’m probably going to go back to a French Press anyways.) #enshittified #enshittification
