Are you a fan of espresso, cold brew, aeropress? Do you try new beans and roasters regularly, or stay with what you know and love?
I generally prefer filter coffee (with a re-usable filter, no oil sucking paper!) or plunger, but currently have only the plunger because of lack of space. A good syphon can also be supurb. I’ve also started roasting my own beans - I’m definitely a long way from expert, but am getting pretty solid results and am am slowly improving.
Moka pot is real coffee to me. I find everything else some sort of compromise - even buying coffee from a barista with an espresso machine. Espresso machines are comparable in coffee quality, the compromise you are making is price for time. That goes for caffe machines with a barista or the fancy machines you can get at home.
I’m surprised to see how few coffee drinkers seem to make coffee on the stove. It’s the real deal, and while it takes 5-10 minutes longer, it’s the cheapest way to get good coffee.
