Bought this in 2008 and am still using it in 2023. It's compact, durable and has produced great coffee for me, nearly everyday, for the last 15 years. All you need is a kettle and good coffee beans. Add coffee, pour hot water, wait 1 minute then press the plunger to get your morning brew.

I've been interested in upgrading from ground coffee with a french press, to this with a grinder as the Aeropress is very affordable for what it does.

Only problem is I can't gauge what grinder to match with it, seems like grinders can cost hundreds of £/$/EuroDollars.

Any kind of burr mill grinder in your price range is recommended. For my first couple years of use I would daily a hand crank burr grinder I ordered from Amazon around $30 usd.

I got this Rhino hand grinder that works great. Bonus 'feature' is the crank fits onto a hex shaft that also fits my cordless drill when I'm feeling lazy :)
