Best coffee starter set

I was recently asked by a friend for a coffee set to bring overseas – he was going to be out of Singapore for 60 days and wanted something to bring along to remind him of home. Hence this post!

To me, the best starter sets (generally, not just for coffee) should allow the user to get good, above average results without having very high skill level. The rationale for this is sustainability – the user will be quickly rewarded and be motivated to continue experimenting and to grow along the journey.

The Aeropress comes to mind, because it produces good coffee with very minimal effort, while also allowing the user to experiment with different recipes and brew methods.
