I went to a meetup at Catalina Coffee (best coffee in Houston) for CoffeeGeek users this afternoon, and it was great fun... lots of great coffee and conversation.
Kudos to Max (Catalina's owner) for being devoted to quality coffee and for helping build a coffee community here in Houston.
I forget what the bean was, but we got to compare the same coffee brewed in a Chemex, a FETCO extractor, and French press. The Chemex brew was light and flavorful, but my personal preference was for the FETCO or the press... both had more body. The Chemex is almost tea-like. I could definitely see using all three (the FETCO being definitely a commercial unit).
As always, the lattes were beautiful and delicious:
