That was basically my evolution also: French Press to Pour Over to AeropressTested has some good coffee content. That is where I first discovered the Aeropress. I was a pourover convert for a few years before trying the Aeropress.

I have not owned a coffee maker or used a French press for a number of years. I have a Aeropress in my tool box at work, one in my pack, and one in the pantry, to me it is the best thing since the electric kettle.
Fresh roasted makes a big difference, too. We're home roasters so it's always fresh roasted here, and our machine grinds just before it make the coffee.The secret is fresh ground coffee
I enjoy the simple Italian Bialetti system, which is good for travelling and home use. I use it for years now and I do not know anything that sustainable and reliable. A italian friend of mine uses his one for 25 years now and it still works, without maintenance.
Does someone use something of this kind ?
Yes. This is also my favorite coffee maker. I can order exactly what kind of coffee mix I want to the coffee merchant. It is very flexible, never breaks down, and makes a perfect decoration
