Well it arrived today the gas hob coffee maker can’t wait to try it.

Who did you order through Annie. Though I don't know where we could store it as space is at a premium and it looks quite sizeable.

That looks interesting, Annie, can't wait for a cup of coffee from that.

Topped up with Baileys, of course!

The McDonalds around here have leather sofas now and the coffee isn't too bad and at £1.29 for a white coffee it's pretty good value using freshly ground 100% Arabica beans.

Try Portugal, The cafe just down from our local supermarket does a bica (expresso) for 50 cents and milky coffee for 90 and the taste is excellent as is all coffee here. Fortunately there are no Micky Ds in the town we winter in so we can enjoy real food.

I also enjoy real food but the thread was about coffee and McDonalds isn't bad and is a reasonable price (for the UK that is) and you don't have to eat the food in there to enjoy the coffee.

Then why miss out my comments about the coffee here which I am afraid makes the Micky Ds stuff pretty pedestrian.

KFC's isn't so bad for coffee on the go either.

I didn't mention your coffee comments because I didn't think it was neccessary, so you can get a great cup of coffee cheaper in Portugal than I can at McDonalds in Telford, that deosn't mean that their coffee is no good and I did say that the price was reasonable for the UK.

We use the lastest mini Nespresso machine, mainly because we have the bigger version at home. It’s small and light and we only need one set of supplies.

I got this today from Sainsbury's for £9.33! Bargain, just got to find a decent coffee and learn how to use it lol.
Some great advice on this thread and this type of coffee pot along the Aerobie Aeropress, which I'm also going to order off Amazon soon, got recommended a lot so I'll be able to compare both methods.

Usually use Taylors coffee bags and our 240v kettle

However I'm very tempted by one of these.....

Took my post there Sue. Pan of boiled milk or kettle of boiled water or mixture to suit taste. Any instant coffee that suits the taste buds. So easy and fast.
.... Tom ....

L'or coffee made with boiled water and topped with evaporated milk for me

I also bought one of those from Sainsbury's as an alternative to the Aeropress I already have. Both produce great-tasting coffee but, while not needing a kettle, the Sainsbury's stove-top espresso maker leaves a small amount of 'sludge' in the bottom of your coffee cup. No sludge with the Aeropress and it's easier to clean.

HTH, Geoff

After ordering AND sending it straight back

Don't bother....
The carafe is the size, of an egg cup and, took a lifetime to make the coffee..
It only pulled 8 amps though.... Sadly that 8 amps was drawn for a, short lifetime.

After trying a few different things, we settled on using a folding silicone coffee filter cone (easy to store, doesn't rattle) and paper filters. The coffee tastes good and it is vastly easier than trying to clean a cafetiere or percolator out with limited water supplies. The grounds go straight in the bin, not into the waste tank. The only thing to really avoid is a glass cafetiere - they always get broken!

Grinding the beans is more of a challenge. Like all "proper" coffee freaks, we prefer a burr grinder over a blade grinder, but our hand-operated grinder requires 120 turns of the handle to make two mugs of coffee. It's enough faff that we often buy ready-ground coffee for the motorhome. Not as good, but less work!

we use a simlar set up, boil kettle, place number 3 filter paper in the plastic cone put a heaped spoonful of coffee in it and pour over enough water for one cup. Once its done move it to the wifes cup, fill it with offee again on top of the old grinds and repeat. When finished fold the filter inwards and put in the bin. No grinds to worry about and perfect coffee with coffee mate for added creamy taste. Never use milf in fresh coffee.
