    I must however take issue with the Aeropress.... It has got to be the worst coffee making tulip in the world!

    Lots of coffee-geeks Rave (sic) about it..

    I have never had a decent coffee from one!
    Bloody fiddly, cheap plastic, dirty, messy way to make a 1/2 cup of coffee - badly!
    Dunno.. I still use and enjoy my aeropress quite a bit (anything black apart from espresso) despite having a fully gaggiuino modified Gaggia classic - which is quite a fun and/or frustrating project if you are looking for one.

    I have .01g scales and very expensive grinders and all sorts for espresso, but v60 I just chuck a handfull into a cheap grinder and pour water over)

    What is wrong with a simple V60? If a standard plastic V60 wouldn't fit - you could get one of those collapsible springy ones.
