Have done the french press, also standard Braun both make a decent cup. Looking for something new after leaving the Braun full of coffee while away to find it filled with mold this morning. Have a gift card to Williams Sonoma and found this contraption
Technivorm Moccamaster KB-741
Technivorm Moccamaster Coffee Maker with Glass Carafe | Williams-Sonoma
Wouldn't normally spend that much on a maker, but the card makes it palatable.
Anything else out there worth considering?
