File under EFFETE.

Scroll down.  6.5lb.  Fer crissakes, you're CAMPING.  For that much weight, you could have a week of freeze-dried food.  Toss in a bottle of Camp Coffee concentrate and call it done.  It's good enough for the Gordon Highlanders and the Coldstream Guards, and it's bloody well good enough for ye, laddie, unless you're some kind o' limp-wristed nancy-boy.

Nor the coffee grounds. But I figured that was a minor detail. :)

The funny thing is, we're members of the REI co-op, having joined sometime back in the Jurassic. We have some REI goose-down "mummy" sleeping bags that have lasted us about 40 years, and kept us cosy in Catskills lean-to shelters at -15 F.

I have a hard time reconciling those, or the fleece pants I use for skiing, with your coffee pot . . .
