I received this as a Kickstarter bonus. Thank you so much for your work. I've watched a few videos to make an oven and this will definitely help, almost as much as the kids.
 
After burning through the drip stuff and the french press stuff, Paul has the last, ever, coffee maker. Better living through buying less crap.
