Along the coffe mug line….a great way to make coffee on trail is to bring one of those one-cup drippers (it sits right on top of your mug while the coffee drips)…usually some sort of screen built in so you don’t need filters. The best ones have a gold filter, but those are hard to find. With this, you may not even need to bring the coffee pot part of a cook kit…just boil water in any of your pots and pour directly into the one-cupper.

Another option if you are with a larger group with many coffee drinkers, is a plastic french press. Although it takes up a bit of pack space, it is very light and makes great coffee (afterall, its nice to have a few modern comforts on trail)! If you can find the one made by Bodum, this last me for many, many years. I have recently tried another plastic press that has broken very quickly three different times…can’t remember the brand. “Timmy” can you help me out with brand?? I would stay away from this one.

Hope these aren’t too obvious!
