On the show we also try out the new double-the-size AeroPress XL and make not one but TWO delicious YesPlz &#8220;Soft Power&#8221; Blend coffees in one pump! It&#8217;s a genuine flavor journey and testament to the size and girth of one of specialty coffee&#8217;s favorite brew methods.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate coffee history&#8217;s final SCA Expo we make ourselves elevated coffees with the convenience of a Keurig. We recently partnered with a company called<a href=\"https:\/\/yourbestcup.com\"> BestCup<\/a> who crafts Keurig compatible &#8220;Hi-Fi Coffee Pods&#8221; using quality coffees roasted by respected roasters like Amavida and La Barba (just to name a few). It marks the first time Sprudge has had a Keurig machine in its podcast studio. Did our hosts enjoy it?
