Camp coffee!

[Uniquely Us Adventures]

With all the positive feedback about the aero press, I went ahead and ordered one and I’m gonna give it a shot. I’ve been a French press person for 20 years let’s see how this aero press stacks up!

Aeropress cleanup is super quick and easy and can be done without water if you desire. Let us know how you like it.

So I made my 1st cup of coffee today out of the aero press in the comfort of my own home. It does make great coffee and it is super easy to clean up. It’s going to make a great addition to camping I do wish it gave a little bit larger capacity for larger cups of coffee I feel like I have to make two for myself to fill a coffee cup but maybe that’s because I bought a smaller size aero press. But overall I am super thrilled about this!

At home, old fashioned SS percolator using freshly ground dark roast beans. On the trail, I use the Stanley Press with pre ground coffee. 8 o’clock dark French roast makes great trail coffee. The press packs away easily and is indestructible.

I like visiting the local shops along the way, then buying their beans - kinda to remember the trip.
Use the GIS outdoors JavaMill, either the insulated 'bucks French press or a stainless pour-over. The pour-over has been getting more use since my wife has switched to decaf. I do have a moka pot depending on the mood I'm in when packing for a trip. (reference to the Tommy Siegel coffee preparation method comic)

Depends on how long I'm out there. 3 days or less, instant. Any longer than that, cowboy coffee. Either way, it's folgers

 

[Red_Leaf_Overland]

I usually perk coffee as long as I have time to sit around camp in the morning. If not i always carry instant for trips that I am always on the move.

French press, pre-ground and measured coffee beans, and a stove top kettle. So good, plus it makes about 4 cups of coffee.

lol nice shot! That campground looks nice! And French press still feels like the best coffee Especially when making it for more than one person! We bought a ginormous French person can do four large cups of coffee. And it’s insulated so it doesn’t get cold like the glass one does. Nor do I have to worry about it breaking like the last one or one before that and possibly one before that.. :-/

 

[JaredThomsen]

Thanks! Yeah it was beautiful there. I agree, French press is a great alternative for camping - and that’s awesome you have a bigger insulated one that isn’t broken as easy (and bummer about all your previous ones!). I might have to get something like what you have for future camping trips as we like to drink more than one cup of coffee and it would be nice to have the coffee not cool off so quickly.

I like my instant coffee. I honestly think its a holdover from the Army lol. I like the Nescafe instant packets, second is Folgers.
I will never, ever turn down a cup of coffee though! I prefer MAKING instant, but have no issues partaking of other's brews if offered :)

 

[Dimitri_Raptis]

What are you guys doing for camp coffee! Poor overs, French press, instant, and what kind of coffee are y’all drinking! Am I the only one that picks up a bag from every trip to try?!

In my opinion there is nothing better than a Greek Coffee in the morning. Also know as Arabic, Turkish, or Cypriot coffee.

Mix coffee with water and let it brew.

 

[Speric]

Usually percolate my coffee in the morning when I'm not in a rush to get going. I like watching the coffee through the glass knob and it can actually make a pretty good cup of coffee. Though I do carry some Starbucks instant coffee packs for something quick and easy, or I have some canned cold-brew if it's kinda warm out and want something even quicker and easier.

Now that looks good and I need to try this immediately! Super cool!

I've pretty much tried it all. Perc, press, etc. Any coffee is better than no coffee. I have been grinding beans every morning and doing the pour over. Did that on two months trip around the Rockies. Time wasn't a big factor in the morning but it did take some extra water for cleanup. About a month ago I went off fishing and forgot my pour over screen so I went to the store and picked up some Nescafe instant. I like it strong so I put about double what they called for. Dang, that was pretty good! Apparently they have made some advances in the last few years with the freeze drying or such. I still do the pour over at home in the mornings but if I go for a cup in the early afternoon I often use the instant. It's a good changeup. I will likely use the instant in the field henceforth.

I definitely grab a bag from wherever I go! I use a french press on my travels. My brother, being the coffee snob that he is, has "suggested" that I get a hand held grinder to bring with me to make my coffee experience that much better. I don't disagree with him, but am also lazy in the morning!
