For one or two this makes the best coffee by far, and effortlessly:

For larger quantity this makes wonderful coffee:

Naturally you cannot make decent coffee without quality water...
instead of buying all kinds of rube goldberg crapola treat yourself to

it themselves. Make pure water at 5¢/gallon.
