Mind if I ask what you don't like about French Press coffee? I ask only because we've been FP-only when at home for more than 10 years now. I can enjoy a cup of coffee from just about anywhere when on the road, so I'm definitely not a picky drinker but I do enjoy homemade FP the most.
I find it opposite end of spectrum from pour over. Don't you agree it's a different taste? I think it's just personal preference. It's far more oily and often has sediment / fines in the cup. You ever have any cholesterol issues? I've also heard the cafestol is something to look out for with FP (but again, I'm only interested in trying paper filtered FP which should clean a lot of that up).
