donkpow Posted March 23, 2018 Share #2 Posted March 23, 2018 This is funny because I have made hobo style coffee as well as instant coffee on camping trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffJim Posted March 23, 2018 Share #3 Posted March 23, 2018 We had an annual canoe trip that my Dad organized for about 30 years. By the end we were using Folgers Coffee bags, just like teabags. I thought you guys would find my anecdote interesting. Reminds me of a Ron White Joke: I never had much of a vocabulary. In fact, my friend Bob Schneider would still be alive today if I'd known the difference between "antidote" and "anecdote". He got bitten by a copperhead, and I'm telling him funny stories out of Reader's Digest. His head started to swell, I said "This ain't working". He goes, "READ FASTER!!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For years, we made french press on camping trips. Eventually, I became too lazy even for that, so we just went to making Starbucks Vias. Compared to our normal homebrew, it is not nearly as good, but for camping (and convenience), it is a no-brainer now. Hit Costco, buy a multipack, throw in with the camping gear, and B-O-O-M - good enough coffee and no real clean-up. Also, when camping at National Parks or similar, we love just using the Vias to get started, but then hitting local coffee shops (or the lodge) for breakfast and real coffee.

Longjohn ★ Posted March 23, 2018 Share #5 Posted March 23, 2018 DP made French Press coffee every day on "The Adventure". I brought a percolator and brewed a full pot each morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedalphile Posted March 23, 2018 Share #6 Posted March 23, 2018 I like his kettle. Enamel cups suck, even for camping, I hate burning my lips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've gone to insulated pint glasses for coffee in the morning, since I can then rinse them out and have cool water during the day, and then a cold beer in the evening. And they easily fit into my camping chair cup holders. And the ones I got are simple Walmart brand which are just as nice but $20 cheaper than these (and have a nice lid): Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted March 23, 2018 Share #8 Posted March 23, 2018 I wonder if the Aero press offers much advantage? It doesn't look very aero to me. Take a look at a high end tri bike, now those look aero, that coffee maker doesn't look aero at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was mentioning how sometimes she'd like just a cup but doesn't want to go through the effort of brewing a pot, so I got her those and she loves them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will determine the impact of the "aero"! Got any access to a windtunnel? Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtyhip Posted March 23, 2018 Share #13 Posted March 23, 2018 Most likely PNW, from the way he is slaving away over a dumb cup of coffee. Just drink some coffee and go riding for gosh sakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumptown Coffee is Portland based. An old nickname for Portland was stumptown. They had to cut down a bunch of trees in the original spot for PDX. Hence...stumptown and how are you going to get "Artisan" coffee without a cap? umpossible 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyhip Posted March 23, 2018 Share #17 Posted March 23, 2018 You can afford an expensive bike, and expensive coffee when you live in a trailer down by the river. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
