This is hilarious. Whatever happened to boiling water in a canteen cup, throwing in a bunch of coffee, bringing it back to a boil and then adding cold water to settle the grounds? Jeeze! You guy act like it's supposed to taste good!

Actually, I got mine (a "freedom" press) at REI. It came all in one -- cup spill-proff lid and that plunger thingy. The cup had a handle on it that was easily broken off to fit inside the side pocket of my ruck. It is mostly black but has a polished silver rim (to attract a more refined class, I guess) -- but an inch wide strip of 100mph tape took care of that. It has this little storage compartment in the bottom with a canister just big enough for a measure of coffee. When not in use it is big enough to hold a snickers bar, a lighter, gum, a little tooth brush / paste. (Cuz you shouldn't waste space in a ruck).

Really, whan I saw this post I thought, "this sure looks like an ambush." Of coures The Reaper hasn't weighed in. I'm pertty sure he takes his coffee dry. (When he's not rubbing the grounds in his eyes!)
