I'm still gobsmacked I can make coffee the night before and set a timer on my machine to make it in the morning. That's future magic.

The rest of the day, I want that routine. It's an excuse to go downstairs and play with my kid for five minutes.

You should know there is a coffee machine that can be set by a timer, that take raw beans, roasts them to a set level of darkness, grinds them and makes a pot of coffee. I was given a broken one a while back, should probably get it working and hunt down a source of raw beans.

Cuisinart also makes one that takes roasted beans and does everything else. And having dated a girl who owned one and lived in a studio apartment, I can tell you that it also serves as the world's rudest alarm clock.
