It’s called a rage bait - and it’s working.

True! Then instead of spilling my coffee on the counter I could spill it on the counter instead.

The best coffee I’ve ever drank was from Aeropress but honestly, if you use freshly ground beans on a Moccamaster they’re quite difficult to tell apart.

It’s not to protect it from cracking - it’s to stop the leftover coffee from burning onto it, since I only rinse it after use.

I don’t waste good coffee.

It’s intentional. Leaves an air gap between the pot and the hotplate.

When I make coffee just for myself, I always measure out the same amount of water and this never happens. But my SO is slightly less autistic about it than I am and makes inconsistent amounts when brewing for the two of us - and I just can’t stand the thought of pouring even a drop of coffee down the drain. So, I spill it on the table and floor instead.

I live in a small granny cottage and “my desk” means the kitchen table 2.5 meters away. I technically could move it to my desk and it would still remain in the kitchen.

Or maybe I just need to start drinking straight from the jug.

Moccamaster is relatively popular brand where I live. Most people know about it. It always boggles my mind when I see a middle class family with a 35€ coffee maker. Why cheap out on something you’re using multiple times a day for the rest of your life? These things are not that expensive and spare parts are widely available.
