Already getting abuse, er, love, in the field!

I have to say after a slightly longer than S24O that the ballance between 
lightweight and hearty is perfect. The double wall is brilliant. It kept my 
morning coffee a near steady temp with it at 35˚F out, so I could slow sip 
and warm up to the morning. I brew 20oz of coffee into my Klean Kanteen 
double walled thermous, then have three cups in this, all piping hot. Great 
job getting everything just right, Brad!

My new ACW mug made it in to the office today. Should have commuted on the
orange XOXO I suppose, to be matchy, but Riv content preserved with SH in
the background, sporting its new ACW pin on the handlebar bag no less.

is wide enough that coffee can be brewed into it using the Aeropress -- 
doing so requires punging with one hand on the plunger, the other on the

-- Feels very good and smooth on the lips and good in the hand. 
-- very light (I love!), possibly at the expense of being too light and 
susceptible to dings? Time will tell. I have no problem with dings, but 
they do reduce the effect of being double walled.
-- Graphic looks great is is much more durable than the enamel mugs.

Overall, a great mug, and I believe an improvement (for me) over the enamel 
ones. Thank you, Brad!

Any similarly brilliant suggestions for a low water way to clean my fabric

scrape the grounds off best I can (into a hole I then cover after), then 
rinse it with a small amount of water.

Got mine too! Very fast shipping.  It's a great looking cup, definitely
'petite' size compared to my normal in house mug's but I think it'll do
nicely w/ my Helix as sweet pour over kit.  Stay tuned for it to star in
some coffee outdoors shots coming to the list soon! :)

Patrick and others, are you using a piece of cloth instead of filters for
your pour over?  I've heard about it but never tried. Can you taste a
difference or is it just a cheaper/less impactful way of brewing up?

Tony,

I've not done a taste test of our organic cotton bandana material my wife 
sews the filters from, but they sure work great. Or, yes, just use a 
bandana and don't mess with sewing it into the cone shape (but a bandana is 
a lot bigger than the Helix needs, or a full sized drip cone for that 
matter). She also made me a tea infusion bag for my Scottish breakfast tea, 
so I'm all set! Grin.

Glad it arrived quick for you!

The aeropress works fine if you use the base/funnel and is very sturdy. I 
too prefer a pourover while on the bike. I've been using a collapsable 
silicone jobbie, but want to get a helix.

I MUCH prefer the shape and insulation too. Stainless should be far tougher 
than the enamel, but obviously not impervious to damage from crashing a 
bike on it.

 I don't have many riding companions into the same rambling type rides I 
 enjoy, so most often I'm wheeling alone. When I see ride reports, 
 coffeeoutside posts, and bag pictures that are adorned with ACW goodies, 
 it's a pretty cool way of partaking in the journey. One day, I hope to EARN 
 an entmoot patch, drink the beer at the end of a Redlands Strada Rossa, and 
 show up in ONE of Manny's S24O photos. Until then ladies and 
 gents...caffeinate!

Wow! Just in time to be my birthday mug! Order placed. That is one amazing 
looking mug, and if it functions anything like the double walled stainless 
steel mug (at 20 oz, way too big for bike packing) I have, it will be 
stunningly functional too! Thanks!

With abandon,
Patrick

In an interesting and related development, I'll actually be drinking 
caffeinated coffee or tea (Scottish Breakfast!) in this, as my recent 
baby-step healing included caffein helping rather than blowing up my brain. 
Fascinating! So I'll be living up to the ACW name! Grin.

I ordered this one because my kids pilfered the two blue ones from me. They 
love them!

With abandon,
Patrick
