        Anesthetist, what a great experience :). It's not too hard to make non-espresso coffee at home, low costs, simple to make, and tastes amazing.

        Sump looks like a really nicely spaced/designed shop. Watching the videos the other day didn't show the full shop as nicely as that - thank you.

        MCL, nice mug mate. Great to see all these thicker mugs popping up. They do make a taste difference, same as wine glasses, so nice work :). (Why it's different feck knows, but I can taste it and you've got geeks like Dogwood making mugs specifically for pour over/aeropress)

          Went to Sump yesterday and good Lord, I may never drink regular coffee again. Eye opening!

          Like I said… Sump is on a whole other level compared to anyone else in town. Glad you enjoyed it, I think I'm going tomorrow.

                  you'd need mine though, right 😉

                  btw. a nice little vid that makes me want to go for the aeropress instead of the V60…looks so easy, fast and just plain awesome...also quite a bit funny!

                    I love that video :).

                    It doesn't lie as to what's involved with an Aeropress. It's very simple and fast to get a decent cup out of. V60 is that next level cup with more factors involved. You can also make V60 for more than 1 person in a single crack without issue.

                    Why not get both in honest? Aeropress is about $35 and it's handy as feck. I have 2 of them, 1 @ work, 1 for travel. As well as a V60…

                      getting both is what most likely's going to happen…one at a time though!
                      want to first enjoy one of them to the max, before jumping to another system...so since I'm still loving on my own I think I'll start with aeropress...

                        Do it Finn, aeropress is amazing…  I have a pour-over rig that came with a burr grinder I just ordered, so I'll add that to the repertoire, but I really love the aeropress and it would be hard to displace/replace.  It makes a mean cup of java and is really efficient (easy clean-up, etc)....

                                  def. will do so, thanks!

                                  btw. do you guys buy beans and then grind them on your own, or is it also common, that one buys already grinded coffe?
                                  you may have more types of beans to chose from, when buying them as a whole, right?!

                                    I never buy beans ground.  Whole beans and a burr grinder right before the roast for me.

                                        I'd go this route: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002ZD3QJC/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

                                        It comes with a nylon bag and two filter packs.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          hmmm should be the exact same thing though (except for the number of filters and the plastic bag)…?!

                                            Yeah and maybe cheaper?  Don't know the exchange rate.  Identical product for sure.
