I use an Aerobie Aeropress "Espresso"/Coffee Maker. I greatly prefer espresso and the Aeropress makes a nice cup of faux espresso with not a lot of crema. It only costs $30 bucks or so and the coffee is much smoother and less acidic/bitter than coffee I make with a french press. I have only made espresso style coffee with it--the directions say you can add hot water post-pressing to get an american style cup.

I would like to know where I can find good beans. I often just use Starbucks beans--the [censored] they sell in supermarkets, etc is always stale.
