Was going to wholeheartedly recommend this unit, until I saw the price.
I bought one about 10 years ago. They are the bomb.
I know I'm getting old, because retail pricing usually just pisses me off. I'm trying to look at it objectively, 50 bucks is about what you would pay for mid-line automatic drip coffee machine; and I do believe the Aeropress will deliver a better cup.
Just imagine a coffee syringe with a paper filter at the bottom.
No difference.
I vividly recall the two best brew sessions of my life.
2002 , Wells Grey Provincial Park, Clearwater, British Columbia.
Dormant volcano. The hand pump in the campground was basically pulling water through a mountian-sized natural charcoal Brita filter.
Heavenly Jo.
Other session was this very summer, on my sod walking trip with @DopeDaniel.
I began to feel a bit uneasy as we hiked; I was doing the math and realized I had not brought enough water.
In that situation water was the most valuable thing I possessed.
It was raining so hard when I woke up to take a leak that my pj pants were plastered to my backside and water was running down my heels by the time I made it back undercover.
It was then that I had an epiphany.
Getting down a clay gully is one thing, getting out of a wet one is impossible.
Been there, done that.

Thing is, Ddan had the coffee maker in his tent. As I would rather stay dry than be social, I set to work on a plan.
That had to be about the same time that I realized there was an endless supply of water running off the corner of my tarp.
I had enough moulu for Ten, and I was the only neanderthal in the cave.

I used a dishcloth to make a pouch, like a hobo's hanky, on the end of a chopstick.
Downing that brew as fast as I could boil water.
That was my whole morning, best day ever.
Where there's a will for coffee there's a way. ❤️🤗🙌
I have this lovely little gem I travel with, my guys got it for me for x mas about 6 yrs ago. Usually found in the backseat of my work truck for emergency purposes. ☕️
It gets about 3 to 4 normal sized cups per juiced battery using ice cold water, or about 5 or 6 if it's above 60* water.
