I would like some recommendations for a single serve brewer, preferably one that uses ground coffee and not pods. I had a hamilton beach ‘the scoop’ model at one point that I liked pretty well, but I’m open to other options if there are better one’s out there.

I’m currently using a aeropress, but I would like an additional brewer for convenience purposes.

    my moka pot does not play nice with my stove for some reason and it makes me so sad. I only really use it camping because I have the gas stove there and ooo i love it.

          Have you tried heating the water separately? That and preheating the bottom before putting in the water are 2 tricks that I’ve heard people use to increase consistency.

            by shitty coil stove i meant it’s a coil stove and it’s shitty. it’s like either all the way on or all the way off, and it cycles between those to maintain whatever temperature it’s supposed to be going to idunno. not even good for boiling water because if you want to boil anything on it it’ll either boil too fast or take for fucking ever to boil, and it’s all in how long into the on cycle i get until the whatever bullshit timer turns it off and goddamn fucking shitty hotplate fucking stove. i got an aeropress to save my hairline

              Uff… that’s rough, super frustrating. But at least, yeah, for aeropress it’s fine. Aeropress ftw anyway xD you don’t wanna all those harmful coffee oils from the moka pot anyway.
