Was making coffee and considering throwing out my K-cup coffee maker because I almost exclusively use a French press now, and got curious what other people did

    At home, I grind from whole bean with a Baratza Encore. Pretty decent conical burr grinder for the money.

    • Aeropress: Daily driver at home. Easy brew and clean up with minimal waste. There's a technique for brewing with the press upside down that outputs a pretty great cup.

    • French Press: If I'm brewing for myself and others or feel like having a coffee with a more full body, I'll use this.

    • Chemex: This used to be my daily driver. It outputs a clean cup of coffee, but I haven't used it much since I got the Aeropress. Easy to brew, but it uses a really big filter.

    I'd like an espresso machine, but I don't have the counter space or money for it.
