Pour over is probably it. I got my mum, who prefers simple solutions, a steel filter. It's got little holes in it. Got a v60 as well. It's done really quickly and is very forgiving with grind size. Most demanding step of the whole process for her was pouring it over in circles.
Still pulls out the percolator sometimes though. Doesn't like standing over the stove doing nothing. Tastes bitter as all hell but hey, she's done her coffee that way her entire life.
Others have suggested that pour over would even emphasise the bad taste. Hm, I might conduct a single cup experiment one day none the less.
But yeah, in my family, I also have those people who actually seem to want their coffee taste as bitter as the 8th season of Game of Thrones was. Offering them anything else feels like throwing pearls before swine.
