one of them new-fangled things where you fill in water and beans and press a button (You need to get the settings right, though).

I had similar contraption once; set it to autostart in the morning. scared the bejeebers out of me! no way to start a morning...
Well, the sound of the grinder IS pretty loud! The quality of the coffee, though, rivals that of the Bialetti.
