Hi Chris, I like it! Why choose? Just use both. I think a Helix collapsible cone purchase from OAC is imminent. Thanks, ~Hugh Los Angeles, CA On Nov 27, 2014 7:26 PM, Pondero cj.spin...@gmail.com wrote: Hugh, I have the larger Porlex grinder and it works very well for me. I alternate

I find the AeroPress superb for bicycle/travel coffee. All of the pour overs I've tried don't keep the coffee hot enough for in the field use. I do wish the AeroPress came in a non-plastic version, but I honestly can't taste even a hint of plastic and the tiny paper filters are great and

Hugh, I have the larger Porlex grinder and it works very well for me. I alternate between the aeropress and a collapsible cone because I enjoy the results of each and like to vary the process and the taste. Chris Johnson Sanger, Texas -- You received this message because you are subscribed

Been on a coffee hiatus but the aromatic roasted beans have pulled me back in! So I've been putting together a travel coffee setup of late. 1. Got the Aeropress. 2. Good beans, but wouldn't mind some of Keven's Under Waterroast. 3. Kettle Stove. The last piece of the kit...I was thinking

That is the grinder to have, IMO. Fits (mostly) inside the Aeropress plunger. Good grind quality. Dan On Nov 26, 2014, at 9:45 PM, hsmitham hughsmit...@gmail.com wrote: Been on a coffee hiatus but the aromatic roasted beans have pulled me back in! So I've been putting together a travel

The best of the Bodum mug/press options is the swankiest one: Stainless steel and insulated. I can keep nearly a pint of coffee hot for several hours in one. Take a small grinder with me, too. And they fit in typical handlebar cupholders, like the SOMA ones (that originally came with the OXO

That looks interesting, but I have used a Bodun travel mug with a built in coffee press. No filters,fits in a bottle cage, makes a great cup of coffee and it came in a color that matches the orange on my Hunq (priorities you know). On Sunday, November 23, 2014 12:38:05 PM UTC-5, Roger wrote:

If you look in the foreground of the photo that Jim linked, my re-usable filter is sitting in a pot, next to a water bottle. It's from REI, and is a mesh material with 3 legs that fold flat for storage. Only used a couple of times but makes a decent cup of coffee. The entire thing is made

I only have one concern: heat. This might be fun in California but making camp coffee when it's freezing, these might be a bit too minimal. They are elegant though! On Nov 23, 2014 10:25 AM, dougP dougpn...@cox.net wrote: If you look in the foreground of the photo that Jim linked, my re-usable

Roger, I've used the Helix dripper and was slightly disappointed. The design leaves the tip of the cone pretty far into a mug, if you're making it directly into it, moreso than a similar Hario dripper with the same style filters. It really needs a separate pot to be made into, then poured into
