The espresso machine is definitely the way to go for an americano or cappuccino. I use the chemex on the weekends for brewed coffee to sip while reading the paper. Aeropress maybe once a month, but it is my go to when traveling as I have a small hand grinder to take with it. French presses are not used much anymore, and the moka pot is a backup if the espresso machine goes down.
Scales are used all the time to ensure I have the grind dialled in, whether for a new coffee or as a batch ages or humidity changes.
