Problem solved for you. Also can be used for tea (and I do use it for tea). No need for crazy expensive machinery, just one device.

I Came, I saw, I ate fish.
That's why I bought this...http://www.amazon.com/Aeropress-Stai...0657945&sr=8-3
PS It tastes fine even with the paper filters IMO + you can reuse the paper filters until they tear (10-20 uses)
If you're in the market for a new way to brew, check out one of these...
Really digging this grinder so far! It's got around 15 espresso (fine) grid settings + 10 or so that range from drip to french press.
I am finding that on the 10 setting (1 being the finest it can go) I can use less grounds (10 grams instead of 12 grams) to make my usual 10oz cup of coffee with my aeropress. Not only that, but can brew it faster or it ends up stronger than I'm used to. Even with my permanent filter, using the fine (10) setting, I'm not getting any grinds coming through the filter into the bottom of my cup...yet its so fine its almost powdery.
TIP: If you use pre-ground coffee for your aeropress or drip coffee maker and are finding that the coffee tastes weak, try using a cheap blade grinder to grind those pre-ground grinds into a finer powder. I bought a few bags of pre-ground Starbucks (because I cleaned them out of whole bean) and I was ready to give them away, but after running it through my blade grinder...I noticed the finer grind made it taste much stronger. Plus unlike grinding whole beans with a blade grinder, you won't have any chunks of beans leftover, since its already ground to a drip consistency.
so, i feel it's already established i'm not a coffee person (though i go through coffee drinking spurts), but i don't get the paper filter thing. are you saying that coffee picks up a flavor from the filter, or losses flavor to the filter?
mmmmm..... home brewed beer!
i just can't see adding any taste (assuming you use decent filters). i mean, they use filter paper in chemistry labs, and i think it's assumed they don't add anything to the reaction.
removing unwanted stuff, that i can see, but adding...
not trying to get into a philosophical debate, just curious.
