Fresh brewed coffee on the bank

I’m a big real coffee lover and usually take aeropress but it is sometimes s bit of a faff with cold hands, uneven bank etc, although decent coffee! thinking of getting a Jetboil Lava system, basically a jetboil with a French press incorporated, does anyone else use this and if so what are your thoughts?
 
I use a Jetboil Flash 2.0 and I think it's brilliant. I can make a brew in less than 2 mins (that's setting up and boil time). And it hardly takes up any space. I think the Java is a Jetboil flash with a coffee press included. Jetboil also sell coffee presses for the Flash, I haven't used one, but I reckon if it's as good as the other jetboil kit it will be tip-top.

Alan, buy a box and try them at home first, they do different strengths in them, depending on your taste, i like mine quite strong. Morrisons own brand are also very good.

I still think nothing comes close to the Aeropress I tried loads of different taylor bags and others none come close so for me its got to be the AEROPRESS or nothing
 
I really like this thread , I just think great , some people have life sorted coffee on the back fishing was a major worry. I look forward to this been one of my major panics in life. This is what I love about BFW it keeps you grounded. Btw grounded coffee reference intended.
 
The Aeropress came out top against a lot of coffee machines - apparently the pressure you can apply with your hand to express coffee is perfect for the perfect espresso.
The only issue with coffee on the bank for me is caffeine is a natural laxative! :oops::oops:
 
I’ve always used an aeropress , we get unground beans from Rave coffee on subscription every month , I’m pretty sure they do coffee bags as well .

Coffee Bags

Individually wrapped single-serve coffee bags. The ultimate in convenient speciality coffee. Freshly roasted and ground Arabica coffee is sealed into the coffee bag. The coffee and outer wrapper are fully compostable. Coffee bags online.

That’s a great idea. I buy my home coffee from Rave unground (because it is local and good). I normally just take a flask of made coffee, but water and bags would be better.

A jet oil is too much for my minimalist, short session approach; unless I was fishing out of the car.
 
I have used a jetboiler for many years, having purchased mine in Oregon before they were available in the UK, I can't fault it.
