I have a Keurig one-cup. I have the pod adapter so that I can use my
own coffee rather than pods. It's OK but I don't use it much anymore. I
prefer my Aeropress.

Thanks for the pointer on the Aeropress. I hadn't heard of it before.

It appears to have potential in that it combines the features of a
French press with convenience, easier cleaning, and low cost ($26 -
Amazon and elswhere). It doesn't depend on pods. It does require
special filters but they are only 4 bucks for 350.

It does use an awful lot of coffee.
