Mauser3006 Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 I really want a coffee mug with a built in plunger for proper ground coffee; but that is sealable and won't leak in a pack. I simply cannot find one. Does anyone own such a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradders Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Not a coffee mug but an Aeropress Makes the best coffee around I have one, look them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged 77 Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 MSR make a filter that you use to steep ground coffee in a mug. I've used it quite a bit wild camping and it's not a bad way of getting your morning coffee fix... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradders Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Look at the Aeropress and buy your coffee online from the York coffee Emporium I'm dead serious and you can thank me later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trucraft Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 I have had one of these for last 3 years and still doesn't leak.http://www.amazon.co.uk/Aladdin-Aveo-Flask-Cafetiere-Filter/dp/B003TYB4E0 I do like the look of the Aeropress though.

Mauser3006 Posted April 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Thanks all. I've seen an aeropres and it looks great but the Aladdin was exactly what I was after. Brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DW58 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 No - I've already got a bit of an overstock of coffee here, haven't got room for any more.

OK but make sure you have the proper grind I love my Aeropress and regularly buy from York Coffee Emporium The selection, price and service is great :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged 77 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Ok so I'm also addicted to coffee - I'm going to try the Aeropress... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 OK but make sure you have the proper grind I love my Aeropress and regularly buy from York Coffee Emporium The selection, price and service is great :-) What grind would you suggest - I normally use very fine "espresso" grind, i.e. powder - will this work? I normally use Illy coffee which is very fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally use Illy coffee which is very fine. Yes that will work, I think I buy mine as said from the place in York and they grind specifically for the Aeropress. Try their selection pack, but I am a fan of their Guatemalalan blend, it's great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trucraft Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 If your a self proclaimed coffee nut the only way it to grind it yourself and brew it straight away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephentri Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Any of you tried the metal filter instead of the paper ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW58 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Yes - I've only used a metal filter so far, works extremely well, no grounds get through whatsoever, a lovely clean cup of coffee - flavour is fantastic using Illy red label.

Toots Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Not a coffee mug but an Aeropress Makes the best coffee around I have one, look them up +1 for this.

Copperjacket Posted April 3, 2018 Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 A bit of a thread resurrection I know but a question for the Aeropress users - do you actually get piping hot as in too hot to drink coffee out of these please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copperjacket Posted April 3, 2018 Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 Great thank you. Off to find one as I don't like the new version of Nescafe Gold Blend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
