Once I realized what I’d done, I didn’t want to figure out the steep time... so I started over.
Maybe not the best cup

Were you out of beans?

Nope, just caught myself early in the poor. I figured a trip through the grinder first would be more effective.
That's when you know you really need a cup of coffee.

The other day I forgot to add any beans at all to my AeroPress.
I"m glad someone said it was an Aeropress, I hadn't any idea what I was looking at.
I had to give up the Bunn.
I kept pouring water in before I had the basket or carafe in place.
It's like a volcano, once it starts there is no stopping it until the entire boiler empties.
I found I needed a cup of coffee BEFORE making a pot.

Lol'd! Been there.
It is one of my favorite ways to make a single cup of coffee.

I've wondered about those. How's the learning curve?
I've thought about getting an aeropress but I actually like the mouth feel I get from french press with the oils that make it into the cup. And I've perfected my technique so there is little if any fines in the cup. I'm about to go to bed but am already thinking about my morning two cups of coffee.
A few brews should do it. Once for an idea. Second to get it closer. Third to drive it home.
Minimal. You put in a scoop of ground coffee, using the supplied scoop, pour in the water, and place the plunger into the tube. You are supposed to turn it over to steep, but I leave it on the mug and plunge out the coffee after two or three minutes.

I have a stainless steel French press I purchased for a deployment and a glass one for camping. A FP definitely can make a great cup of coffee.

And after u insert the plunger push down a bit and then pull it up just a hair. This creates a vacuum and allows the coffee to steep. Or just push it through and drink.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

same with less chance of fines if you use a steel mesh filter. I parked my French press after I got the aeropress.
it also travels a whole lot easier.
I have occupied that space more than once. You are not alone.
