the best part of making coffee is the experimentation. I'd recommend trying out what works for you and keep at it. My go to for big family gatherings/mornings are just a regular drip coffee pot while throughout the day it might be the aeropress , v60 or even an espresso. It's very easy to get bogged down in the "perfect" cup but no two cups I've made have been identical and I just live with that fact. If you live beside a roaster/local coffee shop that roasts the best thing to do is go talk to them about the coffee. Water is also a very big component of good coffee as most of what you are drinking is water and there are many companies like Third Wave Coffee (https://thirdwavewater.com https://thirdwavewater.com) that help with better tasting coffee. I get my coffee from a local roaster that sources direct from East Africa (https://kahawa-company.com https://kahawa-company.com) and they've been very helpful in answering tons of my questions. So what you need is: 1. Good Coffee 2. Good Water 3. Reasonable Grinder 4. A preferred method/ tool (french press, drip, moka pot, aeropress etc) 5. Patience to experiment
