        Really like their Fishtown and Haiti blends

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

          @Brock In my opinion what matters most is the quality of the water and the quality of the coffee bean used.  If you're using good water and good coffee you are going to get a good cup no matter what way you choose to brew.  Buy whole bean and grind directly before the brew for best taste.  I love cold brew too, but my typical daily kit is as follows:

          Kalita Wave, Ceramic Burr Grinder, Gooseneck Kettle, Fresh Roasted Beans of all kinds, Yeti 20oz Tumbler.

          Drinking shade grown, organic Peruvian approcassi right now and it is amazing!

            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

                                  The Haitian brew at La Columbe is good. And the Fishtown.
