It's really hard to escape large corporations that do not have crimes against humanity though. About 10 companies own the majority of the food industry and at that point, you're just picking the lesser of evils.
I guess coffee beans could do the trick as a replacement but that would mean that the school teacher actually makes her own coffee.

I hear what you’re saying, but I still think it’s valid to know. Particularly if you’re interested in choosing the lesser of evils, as Nestle ranks pretty high on the scum list.
I mostly mentioned this for other people who might be thinking about this purchase, since nowhere does it say the wife mentioned here even likes coffee. We don’t know anything about other than she’s married and teaches, and this whole thread is random ideas.
Finally, it seems unlikely that a teacher would be allowed to have a personal coffee maker in their classroom, which means any coffee maker - however ethical or fancy - would be kept at home and used by everyone in the household. In my opinion, that makes this gift a gift for the “house,” not the wife, and should therefore be purchased together as a family and separate from personal gifts.
