Where larger, electric espresso machines generate the pressure and heat needed for espresso inside their massive housings, the Flair takes a different approach.

A good cup of coffee (decaf included) delivers on all fronts: Flavor, acidity, body, sweetness, and balance, aka The Pleasure Principle. The infamously-snobbish coffee élite might maintain that decaf drinkers aren't "real coffee fans." But, as a veteran barista, I would argue that the opposite is actually true: Only the most diehard bean-heads tread decaf domain.
With around 40,000 stores and $37 billion in revenue, Starbucks is the biggest coffee company in the world.

Americans are drinking more coffee than they have in decades. But fewer of them are getting it from Starbucks. The company that revolutionized the United States' coffee culture remains America's biggest player, with nearly 17,000 U.S. stores and plans to open hundreds more. But it's facing unprecedented competition, which will make it harder to win back the customers it already lost.

That extraordinary rise has brought some to take extraordinary measures.

Meanwhile, name-brand competitors like Chobani's Caramel Macchiato-Flavored Creamer run for $6.24, and Starbucks' Caramel-Flavored Creamer costs $4.98 for a comparatively smaller 28-fluid-ounce bottle.
