What should I get?
    #14590629 - 06/10/11 01:29 PM (12 years, 7 months ago)

I want to get myself a good coffee making apparatus. I am thinking about getting one of these:


Or one of these:


The thing is I don't really like my coffee too strong so I am thinking a french press might be better for my purposes. But I was also thinking there might be moka pots for making 'regular strength' coffee that still have the moka pot taste.
I'm wondering what you guys use to prepare your daily dose of caffeine.

I'd go with the french press. I love mine, and it is cheap and easy to use.

I also have a cheap espresso machine that I love.

Go with the French Press, I have sworn my allegiance to one and it makes perfect, outstanding coffee, every time. If you don't like strong coffee, adjust the amount of coffee you use to taste, or adjust steep times. You will still get a better, well-rounded cup out of it due to the mesh filtering. It transfers the flavors and oils much better.

You will probably rarely use that Moka pot.

French press is better than a regular cofee maker?

If you mean one of these



then yeah, by leaps and bounds. There's no contest.

My coffee press is one of the few things I simply have to have.

Another for the coffee press. I have 3 moka pots and several French presses of various sizes and a coffee maker. I Use the french presses daily ( One one cup one, a two cup one and a big one for guests) and cant remember the last time I used any of the moka's. Coffee maker used really rarely also.
