There are fantastic drip machines (Technivorm), vacuum presses, espresso makers, filter methods (per above), that all allow great coffee to be made.
Coffee snobs just hate when coffee is made with garbage inputs (old beans, old roast, bad grind, bad method, temperatures all over the place).

Oh I agree. All I was trying to say is that a lot of people think that espresso is hands down 'better' than filtered coffee. I'm for sure a coffee hound / snob, and tend to agree mostt of the time. However this hand-filter method is new to me and got me pretty excited
