Hey All,

This is my first post here. I only recently became interested in coffee. As an upgrade to my Keurig (... yes... I know, but it is fast and works at 5:30am on the way to work) my wife got me a Bodum Bean Ice Coffee French Press for Christmas. It is 51 oz. Bodum suggested that I brew a minimum of 26ish oz in it. The problem is that on most occasions this is too much. My question is how do I know what size to get?... do I need more than one?... should I get a French Press and an Aeropress or something else for smaller quantities? Any thoughts?

I was leaning towards getting a 34 oz French Press and an Aeropress (for smaller amounts). The plan would be to use it on the weekend for either a blended ice coffee or as 10 to 12 oz cups for each of us (or even just a glass of ice coffee). Suggestions?..
