v60 easier to clean and maintain
I disagree, the Aeropress makes a nice puck of coffee which can easily be ejected out. The only thing you have to clean off is the oil (if you want, I never use soap and water, just water to give it a quick rinse). With a v60 the coffee grounds can get stuck in the mesh if you're not using a paper filter, and if you are, it's about the same cleanup, just wash off the oils and let it dry.
aeropress with normal paper filter, pick up the grounds and dispose, only the cone to wash, done. aeropress pop the grounds, scoop remainders on the plunger, wash the 3 pieces. no argument on the ease of brewing though, aeropress gets you 90% of the way there with almost no skill required
I just bang it out on the trash can after I eject the puck.
I find it harder to make good coffee. It can definitely make great coffee but you need technique.
Agreed, I don't think I've ever made a good cup using a v60 and multiple different recipes that was comparable to a cup I made with the Aeropress.
That's why I have my coffee shop to which I go for coffee.
I like to have my coffee when I wake up, in my own house, and not pay 3x the price for it 😉
