Oh, you want to drink coffee.

I have an Aerobie coffee press. See reviews here. It makes pretty good coffee, fast. The result is a small cup of strong coffee, closer to espresso than drip coffee. The press is indestructible plastic. It uses small round paper filters about 2 inches across. It's easy to clean, the filter cover unscrews from the base.

1. put a filter in the base and add coffee. Fill up the base with very hot water, stir for just 10-15 seconds, then use the plunger to press the coffee through the filter into the mug.
You need a sturdy mug, since you press down on the plunger.

I used this every day when my drip coffee maker was broken, but I rarely use it now. I like big mugs of drip coffee with milk, instead of the small size this thing makes. Still, it's decent coffee, strong but not bitter at all.
