Hey everyone, I’m looking to expand my coffee gear and am planning on acquiring a moka pot and an aeropress. Which should I get first? I’m planning on getting both, but one not for a few months.

I haven’t used Moka Pot so I can’t comment on the direct comparison of the two. AeroPress was a little too clean for my taste. Turns out I like a hint of grit in my coffee and and miss it when it’s not there. I got a 12 oz french press, probably knockoff of this model https://www.amazon.com/Bodum-Chambord-French-Coffee-Stainless/dp/B00005LM0R and never looked back.
I started that comment with the intention of saying that you kind of have to just try it and figure out which style you like more. Coffee is an extremely subjective personal preference thing.
Did you try a metal filter in the Aeropress?
It let’s just a bit of the fines through and would likely provide what you are looking for.
But, that french press looks great also.
I did try the metal filter! I was optimistic when I ordered it; it sounded perfect. It didn’t do it for me. I guess I am just a french press boy at heart.
