That is really cool. How did you do that? Can you order them with monikers on them?

I completely understand! Winter does strange things to speed junkies. I try to limit the tinkering to my motorcycle because mistakes are cheaper to fix

How does it compare to a French press? I switched and went old school.

Hard to compare french press to drip. Defiantly not as strong or "oily". But defiantly better,cleaner taste than any other drip I've had.

Careful - we might get nominated for best threads

So... This thing is certified by coffee tasters association in US and Europe. That is hard to do. It has a Copper heating coil and is hand made in the netherlands. It will last forever. Makes an entire perfect pot in 4 minutes. Like an auto pour over with the design. The only control is an on/off switch. Simple and effective.

Compared to a french press - French press should be @ 190 degree water for 4 minutes. This brews at 200 degrees. It starts hotter and stays hot in the excellent yeti quality carafe. It's hotter and cleaner with less residue[pulp] in the cup. Also the grind setting should be much finer in this for drip. Also, I may be about to change your life.... If you're not using an Espro French press and a descent grinder then get one today. Bodum is a gateway french press. We do french press on the weekends. The Moccamaster is just so easy to run and clean between pots.

I have stronger opinions about coffee than I do about my tree dot ate.

I'm getting by on a Rancilio combo. Currently working on a 2lbs bag of "gran Crema" Italian roast.

Bonus points for those who figure out the white figure in the blurry reflection of my red sweater
