I love percolated coffee, but my fiancee doesn’t. I use aeropress these days, and it rules.

Have you read How To Travel With a Salmon, by Umberto Eco? Wonderful story in there about the different kinds of coffee.

In fact, here’s that story: Anyone who loves java, read it:

The percolator quote:

whereas coffee made with an American percolator, such as you find in private houses or in humble luncheonettes, served with eggs and bacon, is delicious, fragrant, goes down like pure spring water, and afterwards causes severe palpitations, because one cup contains more caffeine than four espressos.
