Where there is a will, there is a way !! Good for you, are they waiting for you to go get replacement?

Is that an instant, Debbie!
I'm not very sophisticated and don't understand modern brewing technology. My passive drip coffee pot with it's kettle companion are not a very distant memory. They successfully outlasted the percolator craze!
Are those paper clips and somehow involved ..?

don't usually recommend it but you can boil ground coffee in a pot

It's one of the 'k-cups' for the 'cup-at-a-time' coffee brewer. (They have tiny little filters inside with just enough coffee for one cup)
I un-bent 3 paperclips for it to sit on, poked a hole in the bottom for the coffee to run out, peeled back the top just enough to be able to pour hot water in - VOLIA'! Coffee!

And yes... they've all been waiting for me to order a new one.
(It's nice to be needed... I guess)

I HAVE taken home a cast iron frying pan and some dishes that were left on the ground next to a dumpster.... But those can be washed (and washed... and washed again.. and scrubbed a little...)
