Nothing beats a Bunn.  Cranks it out fast and good.  More than one sip at a time......

Bunn does well if you like allot of coffee.

Had a cup after supper.   Wide Awake.   Good Stuff...

The coffee is a lot more important than what pot it's brewed in.  We buy whole bean coffee at Lucky's Market for $7.99/lb.  Grind medium fine for each pot with a Capresso burr grinder.  Burr grinders give a consistent size to the grounds, unlike those mini blenders.  Tend to buy more Colombian than others, but get some Jamaica Blue Mountain and Kona too for a little change in flavor.

Fresh ground makes a huge difference but I don't take the time to do it anymore.  Fresh ground 8 O'clock is tough to beat.

Takes no extra time for me.  It's grinding while I'm rinsing and filling the pot and getting the basket ready.  We drink a lot of coffee.  And lately, more tea too.

Did a tour of a large local coffee seller last year about this time. Part of the deal was to demo the same coffee, same grind, ground in front of us, same water, same temp (I think) in a pour over and also in a French press. The difference was quite noticeable, which was the point of their demonstration. French press won for us -- the pour over was more oily. 

We grind up enough for the week on Sunday nights and do drip coffee each morning with that. On a timer, just one less thing to do. On the weekend we do a little courser grind in a French press. We tend to like the lighter roasts. Roasterie Guatemalan is our fave.

My tastes are not very Regal.  I prefer coffee black, I throw some sugar in it, and if it tastes ok to me at the time, I drink it.

Oh I have regular Coffee Maker and stop in town get a cup if I’m there.

I need to get the French press back out.  They really do make excellent coffee.  It will be convenient when less than a full pot is wanted, even more so now, given the kettle that Lovey bought.  That thing is FAST.
