I can and do use the word dollop at the shop. They don’t often stoke heavy cream however. So while the barista often looks at me funny for the word dollop, their dilemma is quickly resolved when they announce they don’t carry “dollop cream”’

I'm on the Subway plan. Good beans and Mr Coffee.
I think the beans make the bigger difference than how the hot water was poured through the grounds, but that's just me. I also don't drink a sh!t ton of coffee everyday so I'm getting along just fine withe the 5 cup version.

Why the fuck he can’t just say “ A little bit” I do t know. Oh, that’s right, he likes sounding like a fag.
Wife bought an espresso machine about year and half ago. I'm on the oat milk latte program.
Then I have a cup of Mr. Coffee Costco drip at work.
Some days I crave a strong cup of good drip coffee.
As far as "good beans trump the brewing method".... I agree to an extent.
Some of the more subtle roasts definitely lose some nuance using a clunky drip machine. It's kind of a waste of the more expensive, lighter, fancy roasts if you don't use a better brewing method. But if you are using mass produced pre ground, from anyone, the American pot o coffee is fine for me

did a head to head taste test with moccamaster vs hario switch 03 and night and day. wife said hario is significantly better and only wants me to make that now sigh. lotta extra work lol. james hoffman says similar in that immersion >> percolation.
moccamaster is good by drip standards tho and the programmable outlet lets me have a cup of the 2nd best coffee i can make at 4:30 in the morning on surf days.

Do you post on the design forum of a coffee maker forum too?
Since he just hyped up the Harrio, keep an eye on the classifieds to pick it up used
I've yet to mess with the pour over coffee brew methods. Seems simple enough. I just don't feel like investing in another "thing" (technically 2 because I'd need a kettle and a pour over set up) to make a single cup of coffee.
I've had times in my life where I exclusively used a French Press. I was single, moving a lot, It made the right amount for me (One travel mug and a half cup for the house) and I liked the results. So yeah, I like immersion over percolation.
That being said, I freaking love the coffee from my old school camping percolator. There are probably other factors that have nothing to do with the coffee at work there.

hario switch 03 brews up to 500ml and is not a pourover it is an immersion dripper which is superior to pourover.
I'm not convinced that pour over is any better than a brewed pot. Plus you have to get the water temp and method right. For the amount of work I'd rather just flip a switch
That's the part I left out.
Simple when you have it dialed, but I don't feel compelled to ride the learning curve.
I tried it, my patience got the best of me and now I have a piece of dusty glass in my cupboard
