Can't beat the simple cafetiere if you ask me.
Quality, blend & freshness of the coffee more important than the machine used

What I want is a proper cup of coffee
Made in a proper copper coffee pot.
Iron coffee pots, tin coffee pots
They're no use to me
If I can't have a proper cup of coffee
From a proper copper coffee pot.............
I'll have a cup of tea!

The Nespresso Pixie is all you'll ever need... Once you have one you'll wonder how you lives life without it.

Gaggia classic ... but after a couple of years you will probably have to dismantle it to declog it. Great coffee though.

Aldi coffee machine. £16.99
Makes coffee.
If you buy shit coffee it'll taste shit.
If you buy nice coffee it'll taste nice.
If you buy MCW super dooper coffee you'll wonder why people were telling you to spend £500+ on the machine that makes it.

Scraping away the utter bollocks of modern coffeewankerism, all you need is:
A thermos flask
A coffee funnel
A paper filter
Coffee
A kettle
Near boiling water.
Alternatively, just use a fuggin cafetiere
If you want to go old school, you can forget the filter and funnel and just throw the grinds into the thermos and add the water

Really low tech involves a tea towel, two stones, and coffee beans, though I am reluctant to suggest that unless in emergencies.

Old school in that sense is not to be recommended. I visited a friend's father in the rural Czech Republic. After a skinful of local brew and Fernet Branca the night before I felt like death warmed up the next day. The father offered me a coffee which, needing to get any rehydration I could, threw down my neck. The coffee dregs hit the back of my throat and I promptly heaved the lot of it all over the coffee table, covering the photo of his wife who'd died a few weeks previously.

Just a point to consider Brewed Coffee is actually 98.5 to 99% water, guess what therefore may effect the taste and quality the most WATER Acidity Alkalinity Calcium Hardness Copper Iron Manganese Chlorides Salinity Hydrocarbons Phenols Decaying/Algae H2S Gas Good Beans are important, but with poor water your just as fooked |
