Nothing beats having an old coffee mill. Small one mechanical horizontal mechanical crank and adjustable grinding disc's. That's how I used to do it. From fine to course grind adjustments by hand. Those were the days. The things we took for granted back then without all the marketing gimmicks, like elaborate electric coffee grinders, pod type quick brew systems. On the go systems. No one wakes up earlier any more and takes in the ambience in making a good coffee or latté, cappuccino the old school way. It's all about marketing and non friendly and wasteful pods and non composting products. I was always an organic freak from the grind upwards and environment friendly products. I lived on an old school farm. I had no choice. Television was a treat and wringer washers were the in thing back then. Not everyone could afford all these automatic things that do the work themselves. However the health benefits outweighed the couch potato society of our time. I think before social media, people made better coffee and other drinking products without the bragging rights and the amount of subscribers. Back then everything was close knit and community appreciation and made one feel good because it was face to face. True there were many that didn't meet with appreciation, but it was far better that way.
Doesn't buy happiness, if you're not happy without money you won't be happy with money. That being said, it does lower stress and makes life easier. Therefore, you probably would feel better over time when you don't have to check your bank account every time you buy something.
