absolutely. get them good beans and use the good aguas folks
beyond that, with the less "fancy" types you can much more acurately control temp and brew times, leading to coffee that hits how you like it, rather than how the espresso machine makes it
Mostly. Breaking a carafe is like laying down a motorcycle. You think of it as not a matter of if, but when, and plan accordingly.
Because periodic, thorough cleaning is critical for good flavor and reliable operation of the press, I'd also recommend making sure the filter/shutter assembly threads on and is easy to work with.
i more so meant "breakable parts" in a "this super fancy plastic doodad thats going to snap in six months"
obviously everything is breakable in a "slowly degrades over time if not well maintained" way, whether its a motorcycle or a stick with some mesh on the end for filtering coffee
I convinced my dad to get us a press by saying that it saves money. I forget how it saves money, but I'm pretty sure that it really does save money. I think it might be that you have to use less coffee grounds than with a drip machine.
Partner wanted to get a coffee machine (I hate coffee), but I recommended a press instead because we have a tiny kitchen and one more appliance was gonna mean no counter space. They love it.
get a press? just as easy to use. dump in grounds, dump in hot water, let brew, filter, done.
shit, you can make coffee without the press, just need a container and a filter
never worry about obsolescence again, cause your coffee machine has no breakable parts
