Oh I love that! Perfect spot for a cup of coffee... Aeropress is a great one for coffee lovers.

We have the luxury of having a small motorhome/RV, but the Aeropress is by far my top pick to bring along for the trip, together with a scale and the trusty Comandante!

Cowboy style produces a gutsy brew. I prefer to place the grinds in a vessel first and not stir, so a little closer to a cupping. Perfect for the office too :)

Ales is so delightful. Just so fun to watch a video like this. We’re watching with some coffee from Vietnam, enjoying in California..

Quick question: I'm actually looking for a bag or something that can store my aeropress, my stove, a mug and a couple of other little elements to take my coffee to the mountains. Any advice?

Very timely video! Lots of great tips and product suggestions! I’m working on my own methods, and I think this vid is a great place to start. Let me add the following ideas: 1) practice your technique at home - a lot. Things go wrong outdoors. 2) instead of scales I measure “dry”. For instance,I’m looking at that excellent commandante jar. It looks to me like that jar would be perfect if you added a dry mark at just the right point for a dose. That’s better than tablespoons or whatever. So that jar looks like a super replacement for my own dry measure. 3) I think whole beans make sense. They pack well, easy to clean up if the bag breaks, and they dose really well compared to ground coffee. This video convinced me, and the porlex mini is something I want to try. 3) consider the jetboil pot. It is the back packer’s fave these days, and there are lots of RU-vid videos to check it out. 4) metal filters definitely have their place. Paper is more fastidious, but paper waste is frowned on, especially if there is no easy way to throw it away. 5) aeropress great, aero press mini is not so great - it doesn’t really pack as well as it could. 6) cowboy coffee is worth a try, but practice, practice, practice! 7) seatosummit makes a portable pour over that compress into a flat disk. V60 filters work great with it, but be slow with the water! 8) water amts are tricky - I’ve found several containers (e.g. water bottles, small thermos) that can double as accurate water measures. Boil only as much as you need - much faster! 9) plan for the coffee to be “too strong.” You can’t fix “too weak.” To sum up, this video is great, and will get you where you want to go - if you practice, practice, practice!!!

Thanks guys for another great video. 🙏🏻

Great video! I can't wait for a full review of the new comandante trialmaster and its features.

Nice, fun video, thank you!

Looking forward to this…

In Indonesia Cowboy Coffee we called "Tubruk". Thanks for sharing 🙏

I kinda swither between either the Aeropress or the Handpresso. Both make really nice coffee, neither requires a lot of kit, though the Handpresso has the slight advantage of being able to take certain kinds of coffee pods for utter laziness, and its mesh filter is pre-fitted.

this video should be great

I just bought it online yesterday.

I still remember the old days where i was carrying the same things on a trip outdoors, but coffee was just substituted by weed.

Cleaning that kettle after Cowboy method must be a pain in the ass :D Especially if you don't have access to running water while hiking and plan to use that kettle later.

Aeropress/Aeropress Go is an obvious choice. But honestly I`d tend more towards OREA V3 (which is even smaller and lighter than AP).

Wheres the Aeropress and Grinder travel case from? Looks perfect for a portable setup!

I got an aeropress, I usually use my V60 when out in the woods but ill try this too :-)

You need cold water for cowboy coffee
