Regular coffee makers seem like such a pain with the filters and cleaning and forgetting to turn them off. I found the answer at...Starbuck's!
The French Press has come to my rescue. It's great, I just boil the water and pour it over the grounds inside the press. 4 minutes later, push the plunger and voila - perfect, rich, black coffee. I like mine strong, so I'll brew a dark roast (Komodo Dragon is good) in the French Press and it leaves a nice dark ring on my cup. Yum!
They're great for some places a coffeemaker wouldn't been good for like smaller spaces or offices. An electric kettle is all you need. But don't buy it at Starbuck's! I thought I looked everywhere and could only find it there, but of course as soon as I bought it, I found one at REI and another one at IKEA. So do shop around! I find the "8 cup" size to fill about 2 of my coffee cups, so I'd get a bigger one next time.
Happy brewing!
