Bought this in 2008 and am still using it in 2023. It's compact, durable and has produced great coffee for me, nearly everyday, for the last 15 years. All you need is a kettle and good coffee beans. Add coffee, pour hot water, wait 1 minute then press the plunger to get your morning brew.

I've been interested in upgrading from ground coffee with a french press, to this with a grinder as the Aeropress is very affordable for what it does.

Only problem is I can't gauge what grinder to match with it, seems like grinders can cost hundreds of £/$/EuroDollars.

A conical burr grinder with incremental adjustments is my recommendation. I hand a Bartaza Encore and it was a great grinder but I gave up caffeine for a while and gave it away. I picked up a 1Zpresso Q2 S after I decided to ease back into the coffee world and I don’t have many complaints.

James Hoffmanns reviews led me to get a baratza encore. Quite pleased with it.
