Coffee Set Ups

[Soapy]

I just added the new french press option to my Stoke Voltaic electric kettle. Can't wait to try it out.

Guess I am just lazy but I like my freeze dried Nescafe with lots of sweetener and milk...

One of my favorite things to do is ramble through OB while camping...while having my morning coffee. Not a complicated setup but has served me well. It's important to note the Vietnamese beans that I grind every morning...probably 20% higher in caffeine, so I have read.

Plain old faithful Colman stove and a perculater. If I'm back country enough to not have the stove with me I just bring instant coffee.

I know this is an old thread but I have and love this stove. I can afford a jetboil for boiling water and I can afford one of those fancy newer stoves but I'll always want to use this stove.

I use a cheap pourover with peruvian ground (my wife is peruvian and has coffee shipped here lol).
Sometimes even the korean instant coffee, which is actually really good (compared to other instant coffee).

I wont even use a filter, if theres debris in there, whatever.

I use all of the methods.

Via when I'm lazy.
Pourover, Sweet Maria Smart Dripper. Very good pourver method, lets you steep it for a few minutes before dripping.
Pourover, MSR coffee strainer. Very good and quick and easy for small cups. Does get grit in the coffee.
(I use a chemex at home, best drip system hands down)
French press: JetBoil, easy and quick and nice to have a dedicated stove/coffee maker for overlanding.
French press: Stanley MVCS, best all around.

This summer we settled on the Stanley Mountain Vacuum Coffee System. It is nice to use the pot to portion the water and boil it. The french press makes a nice easy pot of coffee. Then the vacuum bottle keeps it warm while we nurse it all morning. I get up earlier than my wife, so this way I don't have to make another fresh cup for her.

Here's a video review I did of the Stanley system:
I also tried Kuju disposable pour over. It's good, but not fast and not enough coffee: starbucks coupons

I usually use a pour-over too for a clean, flavorful cup. Sometimes I switch to a French press or Moka pot for a stronger brew.

This thread started 9 years ago? I still am a French press guy. Have some beautiful pots-unused. But now, I’m eyeing a percolator? Kind of old school.

I keep it simple on the road and at home. A water boiler and my favorite Cafe Bustelo Espresso coffee is amazing. No pod trash, no clean up just coffee!!

I never thought about cold brewed coffee until recently. found a stainless steel strainer that is made to fit mason jars and you fill the jar with cold water and stick in the strainer and add ground coffee and let sit a few hours/overnight and it makes a VERY smooth coffee. been making it for the wife and she loves it...i'll add coconut milk and some cane sugar and shake or blend and it's really good. super easy to do camping...when you go to bed, stick the mason jar in the cooler and wake up to a nice smooth coffee with no need to fire up a stove or pot.

not sure if this has been mentioned on this thread...there's 36 pages of coffee and I'm not about to go thru every post to make sure I'm not repeating it. if its been mentioned already, great...I second it!

Amazon has the fine mesh strainers for around $10 and if you're already on amazon...I also recommend the Tim Horton coffee. put it like this: I think Tim Horton's coffee is so good, that I'd vote for Canada to be the 51st state and i'd totally get rid of ALL Starbucks...just sayin'

Stanley french press and some walmart ground coffee. Highland Fog is pretty good IMO

 

[Servus]

Jetboil, Instant coffee, some mocha packets and mason jar of milk to appeal to the sweet crowd when needed. I run this in my backpacking set up as well on my remote motorcycle mountain adventures.

Still use a Melitta Ready Joe filter holder for coffee at home or on the road. I use the small Hario kettle both at home and in my van. I also have an espresso machine and moka pots at home. I posted in this thread in the past and while I love making espresso and related drinks, I still use my pour over method most of the time.

Holy smokes I never knew Mellita made such a thing. They have a facility about 5 miles from my house!

Dude, I believe they invented pour over coffee!

 

[MLynd]

We use a pour over or old tried and true perk but I just got a collapsible kettle that I will be trying out

 

[Stalker]

I don't consider "coffee" anything but espresso so Wacaco Nanopresso and Stella Blue Positive Vibes Light Roast is the best combo for me.

We typically always use our French press, but we had accidentally forgot our coffee and these came with a care package we have to have in our bin. They were actually really good! It was a great backup or if you’re traveling light it’s a great little idea.

@Uniquely Us Adventures I keep those little pre-made pour overs and my jet boil in my truck all winter. They are great to make a quick cup of coffee on the road.
