Aeropress! I actually just bought my brother one because he saw me making coffee one morning and gave me the 🤨 look. I told him to taste it and he exclaimed “damn, that is excellent coffee!” since he’s used to pre-made stuff and Keurig pods.
Yep. I love other methods too but aeropress seems to be the easiest method to get a consistently good cup of coffee. It’s not the best but that’s not what you’re looking for everyday.
It’s a very forgiving method, unlike the moka pot. If you use a scale, and keep all numbers reasonable, the result will be reasonably good too. Finer details don’t really matter very much unless you’re highly trained in tasting finer flavor notes. Most people can’t tell if the temperature, particle size or extraction time was a little bit off.
Moka pot is a very different beast. It’s very easy to go from delicious coffee to bitter rat poison in a few seconds if you’re not paying attention.
I personally find the Moka pot to be more consistent for me personally, as long as you keep the temperature from getting to high and take it off the heat before the bubbly too hot water comes out it’s bang on. With an Aeropress I could never figure out how to make it well consistently.

Yeah, aeropress really is the easiest to make, clean and maintain.
I have had mine and use it all the time for about 15 years now. Still works great. I just rinse the stuff off and leave it in the dish dry rack.
