I want a cup of coffee not a science project.

If a gram scale and a grinder that has one knob and one button is too much to deal with then I guess you do need K-cups after all.

300g of water over 17g of freshly ground beans will pretty much always beat the K-cup on quality, is cheaper and produces less waste. You don't even need fancy beans, my go-to is the store brand bean from the supermarket.
