So, this looks like the start of a relatively new community (at least for me), and we surely have some new people coming over from the coffee subreddit, so let’s get some conversation going!

What’s your current favorite brew method? I’ve been really getting into my flat bottom brew lately, with the Stagg XF. I just feel it’s been a bit more forgiving than my v60, and it’s been pulling out some pretty solid tasting notes in my latest beans.

What’re y’all brewing with?

EDIT: I absolutely love the traction this post got! And I love seeing all the methods everyone is using daily. Thank you all

    For me it’s the ability to get coffee that’s strong enough so that most of the cup can be hot milk. I’ve been chasing that for years.

    Cafetiere was always disappointing, never bothered with any of the pourover methods because I couldn’t see how they were any good for “milk drinks”. I was never aware of aeropress really and when I did hear about it it just looked like another way of making filter strength coffee so steered clear of that.

    Then I discovered the Moka pot which I used for years by cramming it with as much coffee as I could get into it which used to get pretty close to espresso strength but obviously not proper espresso.

    Eventually we bought a Bambino Plus in lockdown and have been knocking out at least decent 2 lattes per day ever since (usually more if my wife is home)

    Still not convinced I can get enough coffee in each shot though… I’m regretting the 53mm basket size!
