"My favourite method of brewing coffee is 'FAST'"
I agree! Every night before I go to bed, I setup my automatic-drip coffee maker for the coming day, by putting water in the tank and coffee-grounds in the basket. That way, the next morning all I have to do is hit the switch and the coffee brews while I am in the bathroom doing my "morning ablutions" as my late-husband like to call it. Then, everything is ready for me to pour my first cuppa and shake the cobwebs from my brain. Forget the moka pots, samovars, French presses, thermometers, percolators, and all the other things that some folk think are necessary for a drinkable cup of coffee — I prefer fast and easy for the win!
Haha! I love that! Your husband sounded like a funny person 🤗. I do get that too. On the boat, I used my moka pot mainly, and I didn't bother to add lukewarm water to brew it. I always had it set up to place on the fire right away so there would be no delay.
I learned the name of those "vessels" - samovars! Cheers for that 😊
