What a faff that is !An Aeropress - even I can make decent coffee with one of these. https://www.aeropress.co.ukNever associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

We are a family that decided that decent strong coffee was our non negotiable when our income fell. We've had only one holiday in 10 years but we have a traditional plumbed in 1 group, a french press for backup and an aeropress for camping. We did have to use the aeropress for a week and it was fine even for coffee snobs like us!0

aeropress is actually a lot less of a 'faff' than a french press as there is no 'clean up' involving coffee grounds after use - you simple eject a neat 'puck' of used coffee grounds into any handy bin - i have one at work and avoids clogging the company sink with french press grounds!
i can also recommend the porlex hand grinder as far cheaper than an electric grinder https://www.hasbean.co.uk/collections/porlex/products/porlex-tall-hand-grinder0 -
Just drink an instant coffee, dude. Way easy and less cost, if I may say. LOL0
