    I have been using a Metlitta ceramic for pour through coffee. And I just added an Aeropress to try. So far, I really enjoy the Aeropress, it is quick easy and doesn't make a big mess like the french press when I clean it out. Just a puck with a bit of filter paper on it which goes to the compost pile.

    I use about a cup of oatmeal per pound of ground beef. Do not over mix! That is how you get rubber meatballs!

    I used an Aeropress for a while. It was fast and easy, and it made a decent brew, but I wasn't super excited about the all-plastic construction. It's nice for camping, though.

    I found french presses and Bodum pour-overs to be a bit of a disappointment. These days, I'm back to a stainless steel percolator. Good coffee, quick, easy to clean, no plastic.

    My favorite machine ever was the old Corning Ware percolator my dad had. That thing made excellent coffee, even if every cup came with a random chance of the handle breaking off causing serious burns!

    Yeah, i still think the best coffee is from the blue enamaled steel percolator that we used while camping. The smell of a strike anywhere match, the smell of propane, then of coffee percolating, and finally eggs and bacon in the popup camping trailer with canvas sides are some of my fondest smells.

    I buy most of my coffee and accessories from Burman https://burmancoffee.com/product-category/grinders/
    The grinder I use is about 15 years old and discontinued but I've not been disappointed with BCT yet. Sometimes for kicks I'll grind 'em up with my grandmother's iron-and-wood hand-crank grinder.

    I got a ceado 5sd grinder and roast my own coffee. Cant go back now. I use a kalita wave pour over or espresso from a barista pro machine from breville. A far cry from my instant days on exercise as a grunt in the military.

I use the medium size which perfectly holds a pound of roasted beans. My Blue Mountain beans come in pound bags with similar valves.
    Good storage matters! Have you always roasted before storing? Mine are stored green, I discovered a ziplock bag of them that had been 'misplaced' for three-four years and they roasted up just fine.
