Humans have likely eaten bugs with their food by accident for as long as humans existed. Bugs are everywhere, and its impossible to be meticulous and get them all out always.
I lived with a buddy of mine who owned one of the first generation Keurig machines. We had problems with roaches cropping up here and there and we tried everything to get rid of them from diatomaceous earth to calling an exterminator but they always came back and we had no idea where they were coming from. We had assumed at some point that it was probably from an adjacent town home so we just dealt with them as they came and I didn't think much of them after that. Fast forward a year or so and I've moved out of the place. I get talking with my buddy about the old roach problem and he tells me that he found out where they were nesting when his Keurig machine stopped working and he attempted to open it up and they came pouring out of the machine. My buddy grabbed some roach spray we had stocked up on and drenched the machine in it to kill as many of the damn things as he could. He ended up throwing that machine away. I'm glad I switched to French press and moka pots forever ago.
Around 40% of commercial coffee makers are infested with roaches. Garbage, sewage, and waste from humans can all be fertilized by roaches, and their intestinal parasites can spread. Look for different factors to determine if your coffee maker is infiltrated by these insects. Because coffee grounds and roaches almost look like each other, it may be difficult to identify them in your coffee maker.
I'm so glad I don't drink coffee. I think I wouldn't be able to handle a roach-infested anything in my home. At least, afaik, roaches aren't that much of a problem in Germany
Voyager screencap note: can tap the three dots, share as image, add the parent comment, and get a nice clean shot. Helpful if there are lots of replies you want to hide in between.
I started using voyager back when it was a web app snippet or whatever and it was called wefwef. I have to say this app is awesome, thanks for making it if anyone from the team reads this!
And since voyager is taking many of the UX features that made Apollo on iOS so great (sharing comments or posts as images included), props to Christian Selig for his work on Apollo, and props to the voyager team and community for making what made Apollo so great for Reddit and applying that same awesomeness to Lemmy and improving on it
I remember a similar thing happening to me and a group of friends when we were camping. We brought a few kegs of beer and a tap system with us. At some point, beer was flowing very slow. It took us some time until we noticed a fly in the hose. We kept pouring beer until the fly popped out.
When I was at school in sixth form there was a coffee vending machine in the rec room (basically only had a few chairs and a sofa plus the coffee vending machine and a microwave) an acquaintance (I hated the guy personally )of mine went and got a coffee from it and found a dead fly at the bottom of the cup. Put me off the vending machine completely and now I'm more cautious when using any machine.
I agree that roach blend coffee is also not my thing like most people here... However, I want you to search "thai roach food" and contemplate your life till now.
