I personally use a lever espresso machine and a hand grinder, but I also love a V60 pour over or an aeropress on occasion. I like lighter roasts and pulling 3 to 1 water to bean shots, personally!
What do y'all like? 
Which lever machine do you have? I used to use a La Pavoni but it started giving these metal flakes and I got weirded out that the copper was leeching out of the boiler. I also have a hand grinder because it will last way longer than an electric grinder motor.
I use a Flair, but if I was doing it over I'd go Nomad.
I roast green coffee in a pan, takes maybe 30 min including prep and cleanup. Then into the burr grinder and aeropress with a metal mesh. It's a lot of fun and lasts 2-3 weeks before I make more. Also the coffee is cheaper.
Nice! I've always wanted to get into that
The only part I hate is shaking the chaffs outside using colanders and a fan, the rest is fun and easy. Just try it and ask, I can give tips.
I'll let you know if I ever get into it!
Caffeine hasn’t been treating me well for a while and I miss coffee so much. But I’d throw a reusable cheesecloth bag into a big ol pitcher with a bunch of light roast into the fridge for a couple days and make some gooood strong coldbrew!
Cold brew, noice
I have this really shitty drip pot that cost 34 dollars 8 years ago. The drip valve broke off when I dropped the filter cone a couple years ago so now you have to wait until it's good and done before you even think about taking coffee.
It maximizes my micro plastic consumption but it simply won't die.
I grind my beans with an electric burr grinder that I have never cleaned and now it's not outputting as much grinds as it should so I'll have to give in and take it apart soon.
I used to use this hand grinder daily for like 2-3 years. Its a really nice japanese one with ceramic burrs that I bought on impulse. I'm really glad I got the electric grinder as a gift.
My aeropress is starting to leak around the plunger, might switch to a french press at some point
Light roast gang 
Light roast gang!!!
French press. It's easy to brew a decent cup of coffe, it doesn't take up space on the countertop, cleanup is easy and it's the kind of coffe I grew up drinking.
french presssssse with the darkest roast, extra steeped because i forget about it
The looooong steep makes it taste good though haha
It just comes out reaaaaally acidic for me? What's wrong with my coffee?
Depends on what you like! Long steeping times add extraction, which changes the flavor profile. You might want to grind finer or use hotter water, or darker beans.
I drink tea, but the one time in my life when I truly enjoyed coffee was in Costa Rica. they use a pour-over method with a simple wooden device with a cloth filter called a chorreador
maybe the coffee itself was just really good but I loved how natural and cozy the experience felt compared to the sterile plastic modernist efficiency of the coffee makers I was used to
That's why a lot of people love pour over! It's also why I love my lever machine and hand grinder, it's a very mechanical ritual in a very digital world.
I buy coffee and put it in my french press. I can't afford a nice grinder at the moment lol
That's solid!
Hand grinder and aeropress for me. Like the ritual and I like the fruitiness of aeropress coffee.
Looking out for a moccamaster rn, if I find someone who wants to part with it for a bargain, but I'm not in a hurry.
Instant coffee the proletariat way 
Or just pour boiling water on a cup with ground coffee
Or just pour boiling water on a cup with ground coffee
Cowboy coffee is just about the same, just putting the ground coffee in the pot already. Many places I've been in the global south like it this way.
Something like this. 
Its like a Stove top percolator and an electric kettle had a baby.
An electric Moka Pot! Looks great for a desk brewer!
Instant coffee and heat it in the microwave.
My parents have a Keurig and I don't want to use the pods so I just use it for hot water and learned to like tea
I have a washable pod that I refill, but tea is great too
Cheap drip machine. I usually just make enough for one cup and put the mug in place of the pot
ahh i want a lever espresso 
for me its pourover when i wake up and moka pot later in the day, mostly because the latter is convenient to do on my little hotplate near my desk.
The Nomad is one that looks super fun, I'd probably go that route if I was starting over!
I think my favourite way to make coffee is with a bripe.
Based and Hoffman pilled
Grind some beans put into filter, put filter into pitcher of water, put pitcher on counter overnight, take out filter and refrigerate.
Served over ice, I also make some simple syrup so I don’t have to try to stir in raw sugar into cold coffee.
~15 year old nespresso machine with the little pods. they make this Napoli one that I've been specifically addicted to for years. would love a real espresso machine but can't afford it really
Espresso certainly is never cheap, but manual machines like the Nomad or Flair Neo can be afforded by more people than the $1000+ machines some people get into.
Stovetop espresso maker
rn I'm forced to boil it on the stove since I can't afford a new coffee maker otherwise just regular drip.
Try this one from wally mart. Last one worked for two years before the heating element went out. Before I started using these I had a $25 mr coffee and when I took it apart it was identical and prob made by the same place in China. I also re use the filters once or twice scoop the old grounds out with a spoon. Main problem I'm having rn is 3X increase in coffee prices. Kroger used to have decent cheap house brand but they are trying to phase out their generic product lines. The new thing in grocery store biz model is replace generic house brand with a premium house brand. Kroger no label -> Kroger Private Selection, Meijer no label -> Frederik's by Meijer
Good old cowboy coffee 
One of those cheapo set-and forget drip machines. It hasn't died yet.
bonavita drip machine, zapatista coffee, bodum burr grinder that should probably be cleaned/replaced since it's been in service for over a decade now
I’ve got a Bambino mini espresso machine. I like my beans as dark as night, when they’re so roasted that they’re starting to get oily (my wife says this indicates the beans have spoiled but she is wrong). Four double shots into the mug effectively making an Americano.
