I have the square mile shop one, it is ok but not good on a windy day as too light.
My preferred is the Rivers micro dripper, but I may be swayed by the s2s one if I can get hold of one.
GSI java is good too, but messier to clean after and fiddly clips compared to the rivers dripper.
The advantage of brewing through a filter paper v60 style is it can then be used as a wrapper to easily clear up after into a carry out bag. Loose wet coffee grinds from other brewers are hard to rinse or transfer into a waste bag, especially if following leave no trace to the extreme on lightweight wild camping. Either that or I've failed to figure out something relatively simple as a solution and will be embarrassed when I learn what it is...

That's exactly why I use V60 papers, that and I much prefer the taste to the metal filter that the S2S comes with (and is an absolute pain in the arse to reseat when it comes out)

Cheers for this - some good info there. I might grab one of the square mile ones then. Yeah I agree with filter papers being less messy. An aeropress is fine if you can rinse it off easily, but that’s not always the case.

I've been trying to tweak my camping coffee set-up and see if I can get it really really compact. Saw these and they look great in terms of compact-ness, but would I be right in assuming they're rubbish? Humour me - I'm a coffee dunce.
I've currently my kit down to a stainless pot thing that a gas canister and tiny stove can fit in, my mug which has a temperate strip on it so I check water temp, and then either an aero press or a plastic hario dripper. It's pretty compact and light with the Hario, but I assume one day I'll drag the hario out of a bag and it'll have cracked or something, thus rendering me coffee-less.
edit: sorry, that wasn't supposed to be a reply! Hope you avoided the famously cantankerous owner of FCP ;-D
