We buy ir        ground, mostly because I'm lazy and make a huge mess when I grind.              We use a kettle, 2 Melitta cones, #4 paper filters (briskly washed first)        and it's a half-decent cuppa for not much time.              When I have a little more time, I have a Moka pot and a Briel Multi-Pro        espresso maker that I've had for about 15 years. cafe Bustelo is still my        espresso of choice - cheap, rough, and quite a kick. Nothing's quite like        it.                                   ...
