Good coffee in the MH

What do you use to brew good coffee in your motorhome? I'm looking for something that doesn't cost the earth, is easy to use and brews great coffee. Any suggestions?

Regards,
Del

Provided it will fit OK on a gas ring

OK a bit of a fuss and sometimes you may need to clean up after
BUT IMO the only way to get good coffee (eg for breakfast or after dinner) at other times just use a very good instant (Gold blend or the like!)
 
Aeropress. Excellent easy to use and only £25. Most important is to choose your coffee wisely. It uses filter papers which work out at 1p but you can buy a mess filter if you prefer to use one. Very easy to clean, leave for a minute after use, turn upside down and quickly push plunger and all the grouts pop out in a disc
 
Instant gold blend for us, made with milk.Easy to adjust to suit individual tastes.
 
A stainless steel caffetiere and some decent coffee. The dregs are biodegradable and can be thrown into the undergrowth.
 
Glass caffetiere from IKEA when we first got a motorhome, we tend to use ready ground coffee, sometimes I'll grind some beans before we leave home and put them in a Kilner jar in the van, always use a good quality coffee.

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.

100% agree.


I drink black coffee with no sugar, so I need a decent brew.

The only instant I will drink is Millicanco.

Gf got some Gold Blend Barista Style t'other week, it was quite good for an instant.
 
I have a stainless steel cafetière double walled so it keeps the coffee hot I also have 3 glass ones 1cup 3 cup and an eight cup I also have a aero press which is brilliant and I also use sainsburys one cup coffee bags yes I am a bit of a coffee freak and there is no way gold blend or any other in stand coffee can even be referred to as coffee. 😊
 
In the MH we keep it simple & use a drip coffee filter holder with filter paper. Coffee brewed quickly just the time taken to boil the kettle, it's then down to the quality of the coffee you use & how much you put in for how strong you like it. Have a Tassimo at home (Xmas present a few years ago) it's ok but also have a cheap electric (about 3€ from some French supermarket) which is basically the same as the drip filter holder but heats the water itself.

We're easy pleased Tom.
TBH, I find a lot of the filter coffee is way too strong for my taste buds.
Having said all that, coffee is the only hot drink I like, can't stand tea.
Long live gold blend😆😆😆

How about one of these!

Aeropress for me. Quick and easy to use and quick to clean up after with a couple of kitchen towels. FWIW, I have yet to find an instant coffee with an acceptable taste.
