@ai6yr @kinsale42 we splurged on a Moccamaster a few years ago for at home. It makes very good coffee and every part is replaceable and repairable easily.

@ai6yr @swart we’ve got a little 3 oz can of Starbucks instant on hand and I don’t even know how many types of pour over, press, or stove top espresso pots and a hand crank grinder. With field work and scouts, have tried all kinds of things over the years for field coffee. Latest was a plug in carafe for the car, but it’s abysmally slow.


@IcooIey @swart I have an AC coffee pot which works as a GIANT AC POWER LOAD (good for testing generators). I think it uses AC directly for heating.

@ai6yr @swart
It is true though. Coffee is a thing few people think about in disaster prep. Here in CT, when we’ve had 5-10 day outages from tropical storm not quite hurricanes, our house with a Colman stove became the social center/ savior of the neighbor hood simply because we had appropriate coffee making tech for conditions.

Make a thermos full now, before you lose power.


@IcooIey @swart Yep, in progress, thanks!
