lightweight portable coffeemaker?

[rusnak]

There are times when I go out to the ranch or am otherwise stuck out in the middle of nowhere and would like a cup of coffee. So far I just dunk a brass cone filter into the metal cup. The unit I use is the NATO water bottle with the crusader cup and stove. I use fuel tablets to heat up the water. The whole thing weighs almost nothing, so I love it. It's really great on long road trips when travelling through the middle of nowhere, which pretty much describes the entire region of central california.

I think the capacity of the cup is about a half liter, which is almost 4 cups of coffee. Does anyone else use a camping or hiking coffee maker?

So far, from what I have seen, other available camping and hiking coffee filter options are very limited. They either use a small percolator, a one cup operation, or a small coffee press.

I have a plastic coffee press that I got from REI or Kittery Trading Post.. works great!!!

Is that the 1 cup one? I mainline coffee like a crackhead, so I would need maybe 4 of those. On the other hand, not a bad idea really.

It's more like two cups as I recall, but it's really easy so you can just keep refilling it ..

Cheap plastic cone and some Melita filters. Weighs almost nothing. That's what I used to take backpacking.

Buddy of mine gets coffee in tea bags... just heat water, dunk in for a while to steep, and enjoy
