Nabob Coffee?
I don't like coffee all that much, but I miss my mom's percolated Nabob coffee. I guess I grew up with it. I remember drinking a cup during the special occasions she made it. To each their own, indeed.

Seems like a marketing gimmick... Most of these super automatic machine uses a pressurized basket, so even at a slower flow rate, the pressure is the same as the 'regular mode'.
Lower extraction temp = less hot water = higher acidity. I would think most consumers who buy this machine would prefer a more 'traditional' tasting coffee with little to no acidity.
It probably is a marketing gimmick. I had a Miele superauto myself and eventually was not satisfied with the espresso it was making, and turned to a proper semi-auto set up to make my own drinks. Some days I do miss the one-button easy use of the superautos though!

When you buy a bag, you’ll get a free coffee. Each location uses a different blend for their house blends so you might as well try an americano as your free coffee while there.
Although if you don’t drink coffee you probably don’t know any better lol
Thanks for this suggestion, was in North Van the other day and picked up a Costa Rica blend from then... she really likes it, said it's miles better than any of the grocery store stuff!
I have no interest in buying my own nice grinder, and my current grinder really sucks, plus I dislike having to deal with grinding. Anywhere I can take my beans and have them all grinded so I just scoop them in the morning for my coffee?
Before I get crucified for it. Coffee does matter, but in the face of convenience and requirements of two kids, this makes more sense.
