My dad had me pickup a bag of coffee he liked a lot on a roadtrip of mine. He excitedly brought it over one day and my mom had to tell him as he was explaining brining it while they were driving to my house that my giant fancy $600 grinder is in fact only single dose and doesn’t really “do” whole bags of coffee… he was sad to say the least.

Mr scale at 1/10th of a gram wasn’t even accurate enough to me… you’ll get to a point where a 1/100th of a gram is the difference between great and perfect coffee. 😂

Honestly, I always tell people I’m such a robot about making my coffee in the morning that it only seems complicated. If you did the whole routine every day too you’d end up making a great cup in about 5 minutes with cleanup. Although I’m blessed enough to have one of those instant boiling filtered water things in my kitchen. Cannot recommend that enough, even just for cleaning things. Anyways, I’m right there with you. I started with a cheap IKEA French press and a $40 Mr.Coffee burr grinder and it just rabbit holed from there.
