I was pulling your leg as in the old “freedom fries” of the aughts. I use an aeropress which is basically a tiny French press in a big syringe.It's just a pot with a filter that can be pushed down. You put hot water and coffee grounds in the pot and stir, and then after 4-5 minutes push the filter down. That presses the grounds to the bottom (below the mesh screen) and you pour off the coffee above the screen. Many articles claim the French press was actually invented in Italy BTW. The inexpensive ones work just fine - I've got a cheap glass one like this and a stainless steel double walled type - no difference in the coffee.

The best coffee, outside of an expensive Italian espresso machine, comes from a French Press.
Much easier, less bitter and almost as good. Been using every day for probably 15 years.

Saw your post about meds and side effects. Consider hormones. Seriously. I've recently started testosterone. Really happy with the results. Here's a video of me chopping wood which used to wear me out.
