In fact, comparing it to the old machine, I can see that the old machine had been on it\u2019s way out for some time. Still, it lasted a long while, at least 5 years, which isn\u2019t bad for a cheap coffee maker. To celebrate the new system, I placed an order for more coffee from our supplier.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/564x\/c7\/5a\/d2\/c75ad2ca1275085c908cc8c85e588728.jpg?resize=474%2C288&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"474\" height=\"288\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There are two items that we all need to insure happiness and success.
