I’m a bit of a coffee nerd. Pour over will def be the better cup. But it is much more difficult to achieve a perfect pour-over cup than a French press. Firstly you are going to want fresh beans for pour over, but you will also need a good grinder ($100+). This is hugely important and I didn’t believe it was such a big deal when I first started. Basically any grinder can do a decent fine grind but only a few good ones can do a chunky corse grind that is good for pour over. If you want to go this route I recommend the Chemex carafes and their paper filters.
