    A good industrial brewer like the one posted above and some quality coffee should do the trick. Those pod systems make some nasty sludge of a coffee imho. We had one but nobody used it, so they got rid of it. If your work place is small enough you could probably get away with a higher end (starbucks or other brand) coffee maker.

    The best solution for mid to large size office environments I think is.

    1) a good fast industrial coffee machine
    2) fresh quality ground beans (shipped in weekly)
    3) a few good stainless steel thermos

    The key is that the machine/thermos need to be cleaned frequently. This is where most office environments fail on coffee. They never clean the machines and as a result, after a few months the coffee ends up tasting like crap even if it's quality.

    • starbucks does not make "higher end" coffee makers.brains
    • see "or other brand"...plus they've got some nice machines if your willing to spend the money.designbot
    • not saying these are "high end" as in coffee shop material, mind you.designbot
    • but starbucks bought a company called clover who make a _very_ high end machine
