Yes, tried the Aeropress when ThinkGeek.com introduced it, then eventually returned to the moka pot or other espresso or quasi-espresso makers because I missed the burnt flavor.

The burnt flavor is mostly a function of the roast of the beans, could possible be a function of the grinder, and is affected by water temperature.

You're used to the taste that your moka pot provides and you like it -- fine. But saying that everyone else should switch to them would be a 'typical nose/tongue" fallacy :-)
