General coffee thread, Whatcha drinking? What's your favourite brew method? Favourite coffee origin?

I'm thinking of getting a fellow Prismo for my aeropress. I hear it's lackluster for Espresso making though, is that true?

No special brand. Buy different beans. Grind 'em and french press.

Just started brewing pourover after a long long period of aeropress and the occasional moka pot, using some lovely full bolivian (rich and smooth as all hell) and high mexican (thick and a little spicy, aromas all over the shop)
I quite like it as a hands-on method with lots of options for strength and type of coffee produced
Grinding with pestle and mortar

Will using a Hario mill substantially upgrade my coffee experience over using pre-ground coffee? I use a moka pot.

I've asked this question in at least 5 different coffee threads and have not yet received a reply. I sense that it may be a dumb question but I have no idea what I'm doing and would appreciate any response.
I'm planning on buying a french press but I only drink decaff. Is grinding decaff beans and preparing them in a press a waste of time? I have heard people say that decaff tastes "horrible" (I haven't necessarily had this experience) and therefore there's no reason to use any special care when making decaff.

Yes it does. I don't think the brand matters that much.
