Coffee Maker with Outlet

I use an aerobie aero press . There on Amazon 30 bucks but you have to make hot water. Just use a camp burner. I use the MSR dragonfly it fast to boil. Coleman makes a little propane canister coffee maker but it Pricey.

 

^^ THIS ^^

You can you use any brand/flavor coffee you want. I recently did this for a 5 day remote fishing trip and it worked great. My little Primus single burner stove boils water in under 2 minutes so it's fast. And best of all, no messy filters & grounds to clean up.

Takes a few times to get down the folding, but once you get going you can rip out a bunch in short notice. About as low tech as you can get.

 

no way you can run this off the bed outlet, I have one at home and the lights dim when it fires up lol.
You need some kind of camping stove, use one with a compressed liquid/ gas like propane or isobutane as the white gas stoves above make a mess. They are great if you are trekking and may have to use unleaded gas in a pinch but that's about it.

My truck camping coffee goto is this :

Mine are the 8R, I thought they were Svea but you're correct that they are Optimus, at least the one with the sticker on it still. I have a Jetboil, an MSR and in fact several stoves, but I leave these in the cars all the time. They are part of the emergency kit, I don't typically but wouldn't have any issue burning nasty gasoline in them and I'm not going to do that with my nice stoves. They work just fine for their task. They were cheap (got the pair for like $5 at a gear swap) and they're rugged and not fussy.

Those are way cool, I lived off a svea123 for 4 months once before switching to a whisperlite... very reliable , a Lil dirty w all the soot tho... I saw some military surplus multi fuel stoves the other day, going to pick one or two up for the SHTF /end of the world, haha, til then give me my compressed isobutane!

 

Even though I still carry one as back up, the Svea 123 is an anachronism.

The Svea 123 was introduced in 1955. It's a self-pressurizing design from about 1929. Heat from the burner pressurizes any vapor at the top of the fuel tank. So, no pumping is required, but the stove does need about a minute to warm-up the fuel tank -which is done by burning about 2 ml of Coleman fuel or ethanol in the circular well area. The well or donut shape fuel cup is directly under the burner. The warm up, also heats the vaporizer portion of the burner.

Unfortunately, the flame of the Svea 123 and 123R - "once going at a full roar" -will only crank out about 1/3rd the BTUs of heat of the typical modern pocket rocket type, mini-stove that screws into a disposable Isopropane gas cartridge.

Jetboil so easy and you can cook food too

 

110v AC coffee makers just draw too much current (more than 400) for the bed outlet.

 

Nah, that's unnecessarily harsh. They are just as useful now as they were back then for their task, which is to just work without a bunch of parts to wear out. Anyway, aren't they still made? Maybe not, I dunno for sure. But I know a few years ago they were still making them.

They just ride around with some food, a cheap Sierra Trading Post pot and blankets for months and it doesn't bother them. Stale, dirty fuel, so what? In the truck I also have a Lexan French press and I'm king of dirtbags in the parking lot. Of course I don't carry them hiking or bikepacking but as as vehicle survival stove they are still fine. Unlike beer can alcohol stoves and wood fires they don't violate the fire restrictions currently in place, either.

 

To the O.P. - I do a fair amount of Interstate travel and haven't seen an electric single cup coffee maker for vehicle that is reliable over the long run.

My kit below, except for the coffee cup, all fits into a .95L cook pot. I use a collapsible Soto Helix to make drip coffee. With a modern stove, it takes me about 3 minutes total to make a cup of coffee. The water comes to a rolling boil in about a minute.



The SVEA 123R on the left is to show a sense of scale. Notice how the Helix filter holder folds to fit into the cook pot with the micro stove, which is not visible and the gas canister.



Fire in the hole with a set up of less than a minute. Within a minute, this set up will boil 12 ounces of water.

That's what they are, solid and dependable. Someone on the planet is buying them, which is why they are still made. The fuel tank only holds about 4 fluid ounces of fuel, which should last at least 45 minutes.

With regards to my comment on the # of BTU's, sometimes you need a low simmer. I have no idea how folks with a JetBoil fry scramble eggs, pancakes or make a pot of rice, without scorching their food - unless all they do is add water to pouch of Mountain House or whatever.

With room to spare for condiments, the SVEA fits into my fry pan and 2 liter pot cookset. That MSR Stowaway that you have is rock solid and should last well into the next century.

 

You will find that anything that creates heat (coffee maker, hot plate, hairdryer, etc.) does so by pulling lot of amps and shunting those amps off in the heating element, which creates heat. And the inverter in the truck does not push enough amps.

 

jetboil and instant coffee (Starbucks Via)....you're camping

 

Exactly. Our countertop drip Braun consumes 900 watts.

 

Go to Starbucks lol

 

I use this travel coffee maker. It'll do either coffee or just boil water, which is what we do. I use the small coffee packs and my wife does tea.

 

Are you running it off of your Tacoma's bed outlet?

 

Believe that Coleman is for a gas/propane stove - it is not 12 volt. The Mr Coffee and Faberware are 110 v AC
