French press or italian moka way of making coffee? Which is superior?

>>	Anonymous Mon May 15 16:45:34 2023 No.19275712 French press. I love Moka pot coffee but I know it's vile sludge. Just gotta make sure you grind your coffee coarse enough for the French press.

Moka pot is comparitive to espresso, where as french press would be similar to pourover or drip. If you like espresso but can't afford a machine to do it properly, moka pot can get you most of the way there. French press is a more standard coffee that lets more oils through than filter coffee.

Your plastic body alu element mr coffee is cheaper to produce than a metal body copper element Technivorm. Technivorm is also sourcing better glass for their carafes. Hario is a lab glass manufacturer. Turns out higher quality glass fab comes at a price. You should have figured this shit out by now.

A French press, also known as a cafetière, cafetière à piston, caffettiera a stantuffo, press pot, coffee press, or coffee plunger, is a coffee brewing device, although it can also be used for other tasks.

>The earliest known device was patented in 1852 in France by Jacques-Victor Delforge and Henri-Otto Mayer.

From Italy here.
Whether this is actually true or not, it's literally the exact same story I've heard pretty much my entire life, lol, so I would guess that it likely is.

>>19277360
>patented in 1852
I think that they claim to have invented it, but no patents were actually filed. AFAIA, the first patent was 1928 /by Italians/. An update/improvement to the design was filed in 19...58 (I think?), which is the design used today, by Somethingname Bondanini, though I think he was (is?) Swiss Italian.

>>19278420
Italians also invented the one-way valve (the little "button" you see on packages of coffee) that maintains freshness of coffee shipped across the world and an even more recent, though still little used, brewing method using superfine mesh. Similar to a chinois, the mesh is so fine, that it looks and feels like a solid sheet of metal or ceramic but water can pass through it just fine. They call it "SoftBrew."

French press is better in theory, but if you buy cheap/low quality coffee the quality/imperfections will definitely be more noticeable in a press vs moka pot. High quality, freshly ground coffee in a French press >>>>>> any other kind of coffee. But if you buy Folgers or whatever bulk/cheap coffee grains are near you, moka pot is preferable because it won't taste like ass.

I'm a savage who grinds beans in some 10$ dollar blade cutter before chucking it into a kettle to boil. Any tips how to improve this experience without introducing more tools? I try to make the grain size a little larger than caster sugar.
It's probably not close to any real coffee but still miles better than instant.

>>19284299
I didn't mention but I do boil the water before adding the grounds. The kettle itself has a rough strainer in the spout. The method is to boil for x minutes and let it rest about the same time so the grounds sink to the bottom. Pour out just a little initially as there's always some which has risen to the top. Then pour out ~90-95% and leave the sludge and grounds at the bottom.
This kind of coffee isn't unnecessarily bitter or anything and doesn't have grounds floating around if done right. Just looking for anything I could improve on without adding a french press or such.
