dude, i've found your channel through the ode review and holy crap, your content is insane. you're like a cross between jesse driftwood and james hoffmann. it's absolutely criminal that you don't have more subscribers than you do. keep it up
I recently put together a travel kit as well! I found a cool 500ml electric gooseneck kettle on Amazon, accompanied by a plastic V60, Timemore C2 grinder, and Hario scale. It all fits in a small waxed-canvas lunch bag. And there’s even room for the coffee beans!
Did you see that face, that one right after he was done dosing the beans? That face is the face of "oh no I'm almost out of coffee". Loved this video and the stuff you're putting out!
Im using an immersion heater to save space, foldable v60 pourigami, then fellow travel cup, 1zpresso grinder, and weightman espresso scale. the issue is pouring hot water from one cup to the other, id like to find an attachable sprout, or a container with a sprout where the fellow travel cup fits into.
My travel coffee kit outside of the Aeropress (which remains the best brewer for outdoors) is consist of a -$2 foldable pour over dripper from Daiso, Brewista's smart scale 2 (so small), Kalita wave pot kettle (the easiest to pack among other kettles. I used to bring a smaller, 600ml one but the pour from the spout was less so brewing took longer), a small hot plate (what I'd normally use for mokapot and stove top kettles), a Comandante or Hario mini slim pro manual grinder, and a mug (hario v60 thermal uchi). All packed inside a cheap but still sturdy shoe pouch that's become the bag for my coffee kit.
Interesting about not swirling after last pour because excess fines can clog the filter. Would you translate this practice to cheaper home grinders that produce more fines e.g. Virtuoso vs. Forte BG? I have the Virtuoso and it definitely is inferior...
I definitely would. On a grinder like that (still a good grinder!) you’d have to judge that for yourself based off of how fine you like to grind and what coffee you’re brewing.
Awesome and simple video. Thanks for sharing mate. I miss travelling and this gives me everything I was looking forward to... lovely information thats easy to follow and replicate. I am hooked to your channel with this one video.
have a jetboil for backpack camping/ field cooking/emergency cooking so i use that and do the cowboy method. no need for a filter or multiple containers . at home its a french press (the only thing the french did right lol )
I Just learned about this recently, but apparently the Aeropress plunger part was also designed as a slow-pouring device? You wouldn't be able to do any inverted methods, but from what I've tried you can get a decently slow and accurate pour from it. Not as clean as the Pakt, but it was rather mind-blowing to learn!
I love the way my mom makes her coffee in the morning. She uses a stovetop percolator. I make coffee on a percolator when I go camping. I'd rather make my own coffee than buy it when I travel. I have recently been traveling more and realized I needed a cost-effective solution because I don't feel right the rest of the day if I don't have a cup of coffee in the morning. Buying coffee while out and about is always hit-and-miss flavor-wise and the expense can quickly add up. Which sucks when you're not satisfied with the coffee in the first place. So I'd rather save myself the aggravation and make it myself just the way I like it.
@@AlexanderMillsCoffee I got this Pakt coffee kit not too long ago and I’ve been having fun with it. I brought it with me to Mexico 🇲🇽 and it’s saved my sanity.
Why do you risk sitting on the roof? I would've loved to buy that cute pourable kettle alone, but it's not sold individually :( Already have toooo many coffee things lol
Hey Alexander! Great content as always. Do you typically rinse your paper filters in the sink at home? Or do you use your coffee water (third wave/other)? I feel the need to save that juicy tw water as much as poss, so I typically rinse with hot tap water.
i usually anticipate no coffee materials whatsoever and pre-game pretty hard by drinking exclusively coffee all day for 3 days before I travel so that when I travel I've got a reserve of intake in case there aren't provisions. wait. that's not how coffee works. i need to get a travel setup.

Haha thank you! I hope the videos I create are helpful 🙂

That sounds like the perfect setup!

That’s EXACTLY what that face was. I didn’t expect that to be my second last dose 😐
Bro that early morning voice comin through with a nice touch of bass, haha. So glad you're on RUclips now man :)
Haha it’s too true. Right out of bed after a long night ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This kettle looks cool! Nice travel setup man
It’s the reason I love the Kit so much!
Great vid homie.
Glad you enjoyed it my man!

Very cool methods there brother, thanks for posting it up!
You got it! Thanks for watching 👊

I’m so glad you liked it! I’ve missed traveling so much too 😫
BRS backpacking stove, vssl grinder, moka pot.

Nice! When I’m not near power I use my Jetboil too with an Aeropress 👌
Nice setup man! I usually just go with my aeropress for traveling :)
Me too! Especially when we don’t have electricity.

Yeah, it’s a clever little design! I’m an inverted guy so not so helpful for me haha.
i need to look into the Pakt. i did bring a moka pot to a friends house once. once. mistakes were made.
A tragedy of sorts
What setting did you use on the Porlex?
Idk why im here(im a tea person but i drink coffee too) but seeing these stuff is interesting.
I'm glad you're here 🙂
Nice video! I usually carry my Sea To Summit pour over (X-brew) with a metal filter, extremely portable and produces a coffe with a nice body
That sounds like a great setup!
Yeah man! Love it
Thanks Jeff 👊

Makes sense! That’s why I love this setup.
@@AlexanderMillsCoffee I got this Pakt coffee kit not too long ago and I’ve been having fun with it. I brought it with me to Mexico 🇲🇽 and it’s saved my sanity.
What scale do you recommend here?
Why do you risk sitting on the roof? I would've loved to buy that cute pourable kettle alone, but it's not sold individually :( Already have toooo many coffee things lol
Where did you find that small scale at? Nice video!
You can find it at basal.co 👍
Hey Alexander! Great content as always. Do you typically rinse your paper filters in the sink at home? Or do you use your coffee water (third wave/other)? I feel the need to save that juicy tw water as much as poss, so I typically rinse with hot tap water.
That’s a great question. I usually rinse with my kettle water at home!
Yesssssss
Come on my next trip with me?
Great video as always! Do you feel it’s worth the price?
If you travel a lot, absolutely!
Perfect for the cottage, too

wait. that's not how coffee works.
i need to get a travel setup.
Ha! I’m going to give that a try next trip.
Where did you buy the scale?
It’s from American Weigh Scales! I got it as a gift though.
