What's the deal with pour over?

It's not at all popular here. Everyone has pod machines.

It’s surprisingly easy to make (but with a ton of room for finesse I am learning). You do need a coffee grinder to take advantage of maximum bean freshness, though, but taste difference is huge

Taste difference compared to what though?

Obviously real coffee is better than instant, but pressurised extraction (espresso) always seems a lot more flavourful than say a french press.

Compared to machine drip for sure, but it can pull out a lot of different flavors than you’d get from espresso (whether you want those flavors is another issue). My friend turned me on to the 4:6 method if you’re curious about methodology. I wouldn’t argue that it’s better or worse than espresso or drip (okay maybe drip 😂) but it’s giving me the flavors I want out of coffee right now.
