Was making coffee and considering throwing out my K-cup coffee maker because I almost exclusively use a French press now, and got curious what other people did

thoughts on the aeropress? I find it really easy for single-cup daily brewing, and the coffee puck pops out into the trash like espresso almost, so cleanup is just a rinse and then I put it through the dishwasher every so often
it was my main method for a few years but idk I just prefer the pour over. Mostly I think I just like the lack of plastic and much lower potential for disastrous mess at any point. But yeah they're both solid for a single cup
yeah you're not wrong lmao, I've had one or two disasters with the aeropress over the years.
I havent given french press a serious try since I got a burr grinder and such. my main issue with it is getting grounds in my cup which ik can be reduced a lot with technique and a better grinder. but I went down the espresso rabbit hole instead so probably wont pick up a french press unless something drastically changes
too smelly... dont trust
what lmao
😓
