Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
Going to get a Hasbean order in methinks
Taking the moral high ground always brings interesting results out of them...
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I'd recommend a blend of 30% Crema e Gusto with either Ora or Rosso.
Lavazza is strong, which is good, but there are much better coffee’s for decent flavour. Some nicely roasted beans, get a grinder so that you can grind to whatever size works best and it really makes the most of the aeropress.
Personally I do like coffee, and I like the principle of an Aeropress, but the coffee often tastes bland to my palate.
Don’t you hate it when spellcheck scrambles your speelong and grumpier?
It cools too fast to overextract so you get a lovely cafetiere style coffee without the bits.
Obviously, grind your own beans for best results really delicious.
I bloody love my Aeropress. Taylor's Rich Italian is my favourite and squeezing out the last oils makes for an amazing brew.
The slab of Lavazza I had was pretty decent too to be fair.

On the inverted mode - be very careful when you tip it up, that the seal is good. I speak from the experience of the whole thing leaking out and burning my hand something chronic. I have reasonably burn resistant hands in that it takes a real heat to do some damage, boiling water is usually not a problem, but red hot coffee must be something else, cos it gave me a big bad burn!!
Other than that, the aeropress was something rec'd on here and I haven't used anything else since, quick and easy. And importantly makes a good brew.
I've tried and tried and can't get anything even approaching an espresso out of mine..
Put the mug on first! Then flip it
I did see two Portlandians demonstrating the inverted method and thought it added a extra layer of faff that subverted the whole Aeropress USP.
What I do is stick the plunger in, until there is a seal, and then pull it out a bit. The vacuum created is enough to hold the coffee in the cylinder until you are ready to press. I hope I am not disrespecting the bean by doing that but it works for me.
