I just got a Chemex drip brewer (with filter of cause) as my bday gift! Excite to try it this weekend. Prob need a few tests to find out the best grind fineness + amount + water combination. But that's part of the fun.
Two of the "how to clips". And if any of you can get a bloom in your Starbucks beans youtube it. lol
But even I have the cat **** coffee, how should I brew it? It won't work with ...

For rare ones like Kopi Luwak (cat xxxx), siphon is the best because of the distillation and finer filter, it takes the bitterness out of it and comes out in a clear, citric taste coffee. If you use french press, I think the texture will become complicated (wasteful).
I might be buying the Bodum Santos:
It is a stove-top siphon maker and eliminate the needs for a seperate burner like my friend has.
Talk about beans, I am getting very picky. Personally I prefer single origin because of the purer taste. For expresso, I am still using Lavazza Crema e Aroma; and will be trying Hawaii Moloka'i soon. For the daily stuff, it would be Salt Spring Sumatra or Trader Joe's Kona. I am averaging about paying for $15/lb in coffee beans.
