Thread: Coffee making setups for backpacking

First up, the Swiss Gold pour-over filter.

I used to lug stovetop espresso makers into the bush, but the output-to-weight ratio is ridiculous. Plungers are messy and make a second-rate brew IMHO. Enter the pour-over filter; at 83g it is super light, makes coffee directly into your cup and cleans easily with a quick rinse out. Grinds go in the section with the gold-plated micro mesh, and a second section has holes in the bottom to control the rate that hot water filters through the grinds.




Costs a fraction over $40. Buy from Coffee Supreme or any number of other coffee outlets.
