Starbucks VIA instant or General Foods International Coffees, or sometimes even just instant hot chocolate.:smiley_drive:

No, I'm not that picky about my morning coffee so long as I can drink it and it wakes me up.

I used to use a jetboil, press and some good coffee.. but now all I use is a jetboil and starbucks VIA coffee. Really good tasting coffee for instant. And real pressed coffee isn't worth the hassle anymore vs. the VIA instant.

grinder so far grinding at home and bringing ? but going to get a decent burr grinder

I am thinking of restoring up my older Pasquini machine and putting that in my trailer :) but would have to run the generator for it ? since it draws around 15 amps but could be nice to have on the road with me

but the mypressi setup rocks !!!! for espresso

Yep....I don't like cleaning up coffee ground at home and I sure as hell don't want to do it on vacation!

Zassenhaus Turkish Mill for grinding duties.

For morning coffee, we use either Clever Coffee Drippers, or a French Press -- all depends on our mood. The French Press gives more flavor and body, which is a good thing on cold mornings, but during the summer when it is significantly warmer (or in the afternoons), the Clever Coffee Dripper gives a cleaner cup (due to the paper filter).

For a after dinner coffee/dessert drink, I'm a huge fan of Turkish Coffee.

Shameless plug: See the 2011 Overland Journal Gear Issue (shipping soon) for my thoughts on a variety of coffee brewing methods.

I am simple and unexciting, just a small French Press and any available means of heating water. Has worked with good results for years and I have managed to not break the tempered glass. I'd recommend it for its simplicity and consistency. The downside is that thorough cleaning required more water than I like. That may be more of a criticism of my poor cleaning technique than of the equipment.

I would like to warn you guys off of something my wife brought home, Java Juice. They are these little packets of coffee concentrate you pour in hot water. I was dissatisfied with the taste something tasted a little Copper-ish about it. It was a little spendy, my advice is to save your coin.

If you ever find yourself looking for more body out of dripper cone brewed coffee, try using one of the reusable metal filters ('Gold Tone' filter) instead of the paper filters. You'll actually get a little more flavor out of it too -- but it does involve extra clean up time.

Coffe time hit's most anytime!:coffeedrink:

While I like my cone drip and coffe pot drip makers, when on the trail, I usually use either Folgers bags (like tea bags except it's coffee) or the crystals.

Nothing like coffe break at 14,000+ ft!

Been looking at the JetBoil and press, looks like it would be fairly quick and easy. With the benefit of using whatever coffe you please.

Drip pot I use at the cabin: 1 or 2 cups each brew, always fresh!

Thx I will look that up, unless you have a link handy.

The GSI filter holder uses #4 filters. Pour very slowly for more flavor. Very easy cleanup.

The stove (shown in the travel case) is their Gigapower auto stove.

The primus kettle is the 1.5 L kettle. The .9 is too small for more than 1 person.

Same at home as on the camping trips, a Bodum French Press.

I bring Millstone coffee I pre-ground at home, and I heat the water up on the Camp Chef stove.
Pour around 16 oz of very hot water (almost boiling) over three scoops of the beans, and I let it brew for four minutes.

I drink it black with nothing added.
I try various flavors of the Millstone brand.
