Comment on Does anyone drink instant coffee anymore?

Yes. I don't like it but sometimes I don't have time to make my normal pour over. Like lunchtime. Tastes pretty bad. Especially to a pour over coffee snob like me.
Even Costco sells it.

I’m a pour over die hard but have you tried aeropress? You can make a single cup very quickly and easily.

Pour over doesn’t seem that popular in Australia. I mean I know it’s a thing but I’ve never seen it or heard of anyone drinking it.
Here the at-home-coffee options go instant > french press > mocha pot > pods > espresso machine.
Where would pour over fit in here?

Not sure I understand your question. How strong is pour over coffee?
DogMuffins@discuss.tchncs.de 11 months ago
Not really, you can make “strong” coffee using any method.
I’m asking about the overall quality. On a scale of swill-drinker to intolerable-coffee-snob, who uses pour over ?

I think I have heard of that. You need special hardware, right?

Yes, you do need the $40 brewer. And it’s best with fresh ground coffee so I’d recommend a burr grinder, but whatever pour over grind you use would work. aeropress.com

Don’t you need their filters also ?
