I'm not at all opposed to instant or other types. Sometimes when the budget doesn't allow for beans, there's a store brand of instant I'll use that's surprisingly decent.

Chemex is a type of pour over. What sets it apart from others is the filter you use with it and the way it drains. Most of the oils are removed during the process so it winds up bringing out more tea like qualities in the coffee. I tend to prefer retaining as much of the oils as possible and stick to using metal filters, so that's why it's a nice contrast. Oil can make a surprising difference in flavors.

Plus it's really nice to look at.
