Hey everyone, I'm looking to expand my coffee gear and am planning on acquiring a moka pot and an aeropress. Which should I get first? I'm planning on getting both, but one not for a few months.

As someone who grew up with moka pot and discovered the AeroPress later in life, I would easily recommend the AeroPress if you have a decent grinder and a kettle at home :)

The moka pot, in my experience, is quite a lot more "fiddly" and makes it harder to get a balanced cup of coffee to sip and enjoy. Not impossible, mind you, but harder than an AeroPress.

The AeroPress is extremely forgiving, incredibly easy to use and clean and makes great coffee, which IMO makes it a great first choice.
