It depends on how much you care about coffee. If you care enough to freshly grind everyday, weigh the coffee, weigh the water, etc. then you probably just want a simple V60 pourover (or Chemex if you want something fancier). Aeropress is also good and my personal favorite brewing method.
If you want something to produce a vat of coffee in the morning on a timer, which is totally understandable, there are some good options.

The problem I have is keeping coffee fresh for how little I drink. I ended up switching over to a subscription service that just sends me frozen single-cup pods of coffee. It's pretty good and very easy to make; just add to hot water. It's like $70 for 32 pods, though, so not particularly economical if you drink a lot of coffee. But it is easy and the coffee is fine.
- ycombinete 3y agoI do weigh the coffee, but only because I’m making a custom mix of pre-ground decaf and caf coffee in the morning (I can’t mix too much caffeine with my Concerta). My favourite methods to date are Moka pot, and French press. So I reckon the vat of coffee approach is probably they way. I reckon my favourite from the hoff video is the Technoworm.
