Are you a fan of espresso, cold brew, aeropress? Do you try new beans and roasters regularly, or stay with what you know and love?

I generally prefer filter coffee (with a re-usable filter, no oil sucking paper!) or plunger, but currently have only the plunger because of lack of space. A good syphon can also be supurb. I've also started roasting my own beans - I'm definitely a long way from expert, but am getting pretty solid results and am am slowly improving.

I use a plunger at the moment, but I’m getting sick of unavailability of replacement parts. Haven’t been able to get a replacement filter for a 12 cup plunger in ages. Price is going to jump up if/when they’re ever back in stock, too.

Definitely have to grind beans yourself. I use a Hario hand mill. You’re missing out on a lot of the aroma if you buy ground beans.
