Hey everyone, I'm looking to expand my coffee gear and am planning on acquiring a moka pot and an aeropress. Which should I get first? I'm planning on getting both, but one not for a few months.

I can't get enough of my aeropress. For me it's mostly the convenience of it in terms of cleaning. With the aero press you barely even have to.

It's fun to karate-chop the grinds and filter off the plunger into a can. It's one of my favorite parts of brewing the cup.

The same can be said of moka pots. Every time you let soap touch a moka pot, an Italian sheds a tear.

Clean your moka pot. Rancid coffee oil tastes bad.

This. I switched to stainless. No aluminum or rancid oil, both of which I think negatively affect flavor. I even pour my La Croix into a glass because I don’t like the taste of the can. Maybe I’m just sensitive but I love a clean moka pot. I have at least one moka everyday.
