Just ran through my first conical burr grinder, this am in fact. Thing just took a gigantic dump. So the timing of this thread could not be better.
I am still a huge fan of French Press coffee. We have a regular Cuisinart coffee maker with a hot water dispenser on the other side. That makes really hot water and is perfect for French Press. Fast, easy and efficient (As FP goes). For my money, a Bodum works just as well and the coffee tastes great.
