I've heard those are good. Aren't they called "Freedom Presses" in the US?

I use Coffeegeek, but I also like CoffeeKid (the founder of Coffeegeek).

http://www.coffeekid.com/. Both from Vancouver.

There is also

http://www.coffeecrew.com/, based on Vancouver Island.

It is just my opinion, but I prefer coffee that doesn't come in pods. I like real beans, lots of variety, my Nuova Simonelli grinder with doser, and my trusty Nuova Simonelli Oscar. Not high tech, but excellent machines.

When I am travelling, or don't want to spend the time, I use a french press, couldn't be easier.

E61Silver is an unknown quantity at this point
Pod Coffee
I don't think the coffee taste as good from a pod system.

I have tried several and they all seem to lack body.

For single cup I use a cheap MELITTA DUAL COFFEE MAKER ME2TM
