Lavazza here in Italy is one of the worst. There was a scandal where it was discovered that defective capsules and other suff (I forgot the details) were mixed with fresh one and sold as special blend.

Also all of them taste like charcoal, extremely bitter and no taste.

But some swear it's the best. Not sure why.

EDIT: I checked, basically a nothingburger. Their coffee sill taste not good in my opinion. I think in the US it's roasted better. Not sure if Pellini is there, but give it a try, it's my go to when not in the mood for specialty.

    I don't have aphantasia, but one friend tried explaining to me how a similar method works for remembering and studying university stuff. And holy shit I would rather read it 100 times than learning the method. It was so convoluted it was like if someone tried explaining the whole dnd player handbook skipping from one chapter to another, in ONE sitting.

    I've been using it for almost a year (7 / 8 brews) and I must say, ignoring the shitty menu of the plc and the very thin steel, it does the job pretty good. No pump speed regulation is a bit annoying but not too much of a problem.
