french presses, drippers, and the like can just be rinsed after every use (to remove spent grounds mainly) and washed every once in a while. i've been using a clever dripper lately as it's easy to use and rinse, and produces good coffee (similar to a french press). friends who have the aeropress really like it, but it seems to me to be more work for marginal benefit (especially if you like cream and sugar =).
