So far i just use hot water and good ol stirring like making instant coffee, but it is rrally lacking in taste and aroma.

I buy my coffee pre grinded. >__>
The place where i buy it accept request of the roasting level and if the grind is coarse or smooth.
Tho Maybe i would try grinder too later.

I love the flavor it gives, but I feel like I have to use way too much coffee to get it just right.

dunno how a french press works

Never used one myself but I'm familiar with how they work. Instead of passing the coffee through a filter, it passes a filter through the coffee. They produce a stronger coffee than the drip type machines, though ironically this is because strictly speaking, they don't work as well. French presses will miss some of the smaller particles of ground coffee, but these particles are so small you supposedly can't feel them--only taste them.

I use a French press. They're great. But you need a grinder for sure.

If you buy ground coffee it'll be too fine. You need a bigger, more coarse grind otherwise the grounds will get into your coffee.


You get a great cup of coffee with a French press but some people say it's too "oily".



I've been wanting to invest in a ChemEx pour over. Kinda like a French press but less oily of a cup of coffee.
