Yeah that looks like cafetiere grind, you want something much finer than that for filter/aeropress. With that coffee I'd do the aeropress reverse method, 4 minute steep then slow press, if that's still thin then try a longer brew, if that makes it taste too bitter then it's bad beans or worth spending £40 on a cheap burr grinder.

Okay then, here's some coffee content. Cricklewood's Community Blend. 250g for £7 posted. For comparison set against Sainsbo's pre ground Columbian. (the darker). 16g + 220g hot water + little stir - 2 mins in the Aeropress + crust crack + 30 squeeze. Bright, clean, mellow but a bit thin. Think it needs longer but recipes vary so wildly on time 1-4mins or the long 20min drip I just. don't. know. Anyway. Nice coffee
