stainless steel cafettiere

[Sweep]

As a dedicated coffee hound i always pack my small bialetti for a (ok several) morning espresso, but have recently rediscovered the wonder of the simple cafettiere system. As long as you use good strong coffee of course. It would also mean i could produce the coffee from the trangia via its kettle.

I seem to remember one being recommended on here available from/via the dreaded anazon. But am damned if i can find it.

Anyone care to point me in the right direction?

I seem to remember that it cost between £15 and £17, maybe plus postage.

I am looking for one that will fill a normal domestic coffee cup.

If you want to pick one for yourself, just search on Amazon for a 'cafetiere mug'

Snowpeak make a titanium press if you want strong but light.
I've seen unbreakable acrylic ones on fleabay as well.

When back in kitchen will figure out just what 350ml is.

I think that might be the one I have at home. I knew it was a bit cheaper than the one I saw on amazon. I find that 350 is quite perfect for one person. For me it translates to roughly a mug or 1 1/2 cups of coffee.

Primus do a 1 litre pot that can be used as a coffee or general purpose pot. It is possible to purchase an 'extra' cafetierre from Primus that can convert the pot to produce your favourite cup of Joe with no hassle. I have one and it works well. It's all fairly lightweight and easy to use.

Try an aeropress, simply, light and make great coffee.

I bought a lexan one, which I think is the same stuff as polycarbonate, Perspex, acrylic. LIght strong (enough) and not very expensive.

I have a couple of 3 cup stainless cafettieres which I bought due to breaking my glass ones on a regular basis. I think they were about £15 each from a local cookshop. However, in my opinion the coffee does not taste the same, it does not have the texture and the smoothness associated with a glass cafettiere I don't know why and there is no logical reason. I am back to using glass. I use a Balletti 3 cup stove top when camping
