I use 3 coffee brewers in rotation.
All 3 brewes are quick and easy because I have a hot water pot that keeps some water at 195F/90.5C, and can get up to boiling 212F/100C in a couple of minutes.
I think this is the most critical part for me trying to get out the door to work in the morning, because who likes to wait for water to boil?
French press - Cheap and easy to find: Usually brew 4 minutes, but that can vary with the beans.
Aeropress - So quick and satisfying to use. Brews nice and smooth compared to my French press, but I like both brews. Some recipes call for brewing as little as 10 seconds, so it's even quicker than the French press.
Cucumella - Italian flip over coffee brewer makes a smaller, but stronger cup, about 2 minutes for all the water to drip through the grounds in my tiny 1-2 cups device
I also have a Baratza Encore grinder, but I think store bought grounds are just fine.
