Ever so often, the need to make coffee outside of the home arises. This could be a backpacking trip, bicycle tour, a regular camping trip, or a quick morning adventure to the top of a mountain or similar.
It's important then, to have something easily packed and light weight to take with you. In my case, that includes the following items:
- A titanium backpacking pot
- Alcohol stove - made from an aluminum can
- Kalita Wave dripper and filter
- Mug
- Coffee
My brewing setup, on it's maiden voyage in the backyard. |
This combination has now seen two Sub-24 Hour Overnight bike trips and a backpacking trip. It works well. The stove nests in the mug, and the mug in the pot. From there, an aluminum foil windscreen, and lighter also get added to the pot.
As for the coffee, I usually try and pre-grind enough before the trip, especially if the trip will be short or if you'll be backpacking and trying to minimize the weight. For a long bike trip, and fresher coffee, a hand grinder can be packed as well.
