What if I'm too poor to afford a quality coffee maker

Then I believe a v60 might work best for you? I think a plastic v60 cost around 9$, and they can last decently long.

Something like a v60 or an aeropress saves a lot of money in the short term. But you lose out in the long term by increasing your standards for coffee and basically falling down a coffee rabbit hole.

I bought an aeropress 10 years ago to save money...

But whatever you can afford from a second hand store.

Saves on money, prevents waste. Win/win

Buy coffee filters and rubber bands. Put coffee in the filter, tie it up with a rubber band, and then make coffee like you make tea.
