get a set of scales, hand driven grinder and fresh beans.
weigh the beans for consistency/ fine tuning.I used to use 13.5g beans for an aeropress, inverted method.
Changing from ground to beans will be noticeable, then supermarket to fresh roasted another noticeable change.
Bean region also affect things.
My wife and I prefer South American, I like Indonesian too, neither of us like African coffee.

I started coffee drinking via Aeropress as of lockdown. I get acceptable results (to me anyway) with the pre ground "modern standard" bags from Sainsbo's.
What's my best next move to up the quality without spending a ton of money ? Is a cheap grinder + posh supermarket beans likely to be worth it or if i'm grinding do I need to get better beans pact/bourbon etc ?
I only drink one cup a day.
