1Zpresso ON SALE ! Should i get over c3s ?

Aeropress can be used in many different ways. I use it to make soup and thick espresso style coffee. I prefer using the c3s for this.

I love Moka Pot!

I have the basic agaro one but even I am planning to buy a Timemore C3s as I make pour overs, aeropress and Moka! C3s seems to have the reputation to work great for all three!!
