Morning Tug,
My daily coffee during the work week is the Kerrigan, but on weekends and camping outings it is the French press.

Death Wish Bold or Starbucks Verona
Grind and load into reusable stainless pods for the Keurig or Nespresso.
Afternoon coffee: same as above but use the aeroccino and froth up half&half or your favorite creamer.

The same with wine, etc., I don’t ever want to cultivate so particular a palate for coffee that I cannot enjoy a simple, cheap mug of diner drip.
That said, Mrs. bdrechs and I got a very nice espresso machine for our Christmas gifts to each other this year, and we are having tons of fun learning to make good lattes, etc. in the mornings. It sure does ratchet up the enjoyability factor of morning coffee.

Black, no cream or sugar. Switched from Kuereg to French press two years ago but that Aeropress looks interesting. Gonna give it a try.

fill my own pods instead of using the disposables. Either way, the coffee is definately weaker.
I had forgotten how weak is was till I visited my cousin over Thanksgiving, where they still use an old-fashioned drip coffee maker. I had forgotten how good you could make coffee at home with an old fashioned drip maker.
Still use pods for convenience but I miss the old Mr. Coffee.

Other than that just grind up something locally toasted (if available) and punch it through the old school drip brew dujour (must have timer)
When going into a shop, I do not get a single serve pour over. Duck that. Too pretentious

Kurig is awful tasting coffee IMO. I buy locally roasted coffee from a guy who roasts in his garage. I have a french press and a moka pot but my daily is a drip style Moccamaster. It is more expensive than the Mr. Coffee type drip machines but the difference is night and day. Moccamaster heats the water before the drip and also controls the flow of water over the grounds both of which are critical to making great coffee. With this machine you get the quality of a french press with the convenience of drip. Although it cost more it is made to last as i have used this machine for many years.
