      I use either a Hario v60 (2cup version) or a French press and enjoy having both options for variety (pour over–brighter cup. French press--more full bodied w/sediment)
      Aeropress for travel/camping  (makes great coffee, just limited on volume.

      Burr grinder, for home:  Baratza Virtuoso

      Travel:  Hario handgrinder.

      And agree with budpatch that fresh spring water and Freshly roasted (less than 10days old) quality beans is more important than grinder or method.

      I switch between single origins and blends, as well as changing up roasters--I have a short list of local favorites.

      I'd like to give the Kalitta a try soon, as I've heard nothing but good stuff about it.

      Enjoy the jouney!

        Thanks for the replies all!!
        We recently bought a French press and I have been buying ground coffee. It’s alright but I’m definitely going to look into buying a grinder and finding locally roasted organic beans

          Nothing compares to fresh ground beans, and a burr grinder is mandatory in my opinion. I use a Baratza Encore, and have a few hand grinders too. @Chap that Comandante grinder looks great, the handle looks very ergonomic.

          90% of the time I am using a Chemex or Hario V60, depending on the company or lack of, 10% split between french press and stove top espresso.

            It is and it's one of the most smooth-running hand grinder I know. It is not cheap and I was thinking quite a while wether to do this investment but now after almost one year in daily use I can say it is worth it.

                    The house blend is a staple in our household. Reasonable price for a kg too.

                    I'd be interested to hear some other recommendations…

                          I'm wondering if anyone near a Stumptown coffee shop could see if they can get me one of these and then post it to the Uk please.

                          https://www.stumptowncoffee.com/products/stumptown-coffee-jar

                          They would ship to me but there shipping rate is extortionate.

                          It currently out of stock on the website but hoping a shop may have one.

                          I'd throw in a few beer tokens for the shopper.

                          Kind Regards
