Drip Coffee vs. Coffee Capsules: The Smart Choice
Coffee capsules or drip coffee? You've probably asked yourself this question more than once, while holding your empty cup and dreaming of that perfect coffee that will brighten your day. At Fungeat, we also faced that dilemma, and after much thought, we decided that drip coffee is our ideal partner. Why? Here's the scoop.
How do they work?
First things first: how do these wonders work?
Coffee capsules seem like something out of a science fiction movie: small, practical, and fast. All you need is a machine, an outlet, and water. Ready, instant coffee! But… if you're in the middle of the mountains, on the beach, or somewhere far from civilization, forget it. Without the machine, the capsules are useless.
On the other hand, drip coffee is like that friend who always saves you. Got hot water? A cup? Perfect! You can make it anywhere: at home, camping, at the office, or even on top of Mount Aconcagua. It's coffee freedom at its finest, dependent on nothing more than your desire to enjoy it. (Check out the step-by-step instructions here.)
Why Do We Avoid Coffee Capsules?
1. Health and quality of coffee:
Capsules can have their dark side. Various publications sourced from the European Food Safety Authority suggest that certain capsule materials could release substances that are not very friendly to health, such as the aluminum used to make them. This material is linked to neurotoxic problems, so it is recommended to consume them in moderation. And if that weren't enough, many capsules use roasted coffee, to which sugar is added during roasting. The result: a less pure and more processed coffee.
2. Environment:
Okay, let's get serious. Capsules are an environmental disaster. Most aren't recycled and end up accumulating as trash that will take years to disappear. Drip coffee, on the other hand, only leaves organic remains that you can compost. Easier, cleaner, and greener, just the way we like it at Fungeat.
The Drip Coffee Brewing Experience
Here comes the fun part. Making drip coffee is like a little ritual. From opening the sachet and smelling the freshly ground coffee to watching the water extract every drop of flavor, the whole process is a delight. Plus, it's super versatile. Want a strong coffee? Give it more time. Something milder? More water, and that's it.
With capsules, however, everything is automatic and fast, but there's no excitement. Where has that moment of enjoying and connecting with your coffee gone?
Flavor and Quality
There's no competition here. Capsule coffee can be sealed for months, losing freshness and flavor. Fungeat's drip coffee, on the other hand, uses high-quality ground coffee, designed to highlight every aroma and note. And let's not forget the special touch: our adaptogenic mushrooms that not only elevate the flavor, but also your well-being.
