  • tl;dr - coffee on the road - what's your favourite set-up?

    Need to be on the road / sleep in hotels / motels / inns a lot these days, and I've been so annoyed lately with the shit coffee these places offer.

    I gathered from this thread that a lot of people do a combination of Aeropress with shoved-in Porlex mini grinder, I'm not sure I wanna go pourover on the road (although this is my favourite when at home). I'm flexible in regards to the style of coffee (could be pourover, could be moka, etc.) - all I want is proper good (black) cofee.

    How about one of those electric Bialetti things? Are they good?
    Most of the places I stay in offer a kettle in the room, but not all, and bringing my own would be too much faff.

  • If you're away for a few days or less I would be tempted to grind the beans before you go. Might upset a few people but means you don't need a grinder and ground coffee takes up less space. If you have something to properly seal it in it will be find, and definitely better than shit hotel coffee.

    With no kettle you could make cold brew in an inverted aeropress? Zip lock bag of ground coffee stuffed inside the aeropress would probably be the most minimal setup possible
