    +1 for Gumtree, but if you can save up a couple of hundred you may be able to get a second hand gaggia and grinder and make a reasonable brew.

        As per Richard's comments, I'd get a stovetop Moka Pot. I use one as my backup and take it on holidays, it makes a lovely cup with a hand grinder, meets all your requirements (can buy for $30, makes more than 1 cup, stays warm, no need for filters). I also enjoy the flavour of the brew more than what I get from my pour-over which it similar to a plunger or aeropress.

            A kind person has helped me out. I gave him something in return.

            I now have a coffee maker again.

                It still tasted OK but I was constantly thinking about floating coffee ground.
                Get a plain paper towel (not kitchen paper towel, the light brown one) and make cone from it then put the paper in another cup then pour the coffee you just brewed in previous cup to the other cup you have that paper cone on. Tips: you can use paper clip to hold the paper towel or you can just hold it with your hand, then pour the coffee on the paper cone, you will have the coffee filtered with no floating coffee ground.
