Do they make small battery operated coffee pots for camping?

Answer 1

1. Coffee pots (percolating kind) that you can heat over a stove.
2. Small espresso makers that involve heating over a stove.
3. Coffee press (just add water).
4. Boil a pot of water and add the coffee (cowboy coffee).

Answer 2

I've never heard of a battery powered pot. However, if this were my problem to solve I'd buy an inverter for my car. You hook it to the battery and it gives you 115 volts. Depending on the size you buy you can run minor power equipment all the way to some hefty stuff. Consider how much power your pot draws, then get an inverter at least 50% above that. If you think you may want to run something larger, figure your max draw - whether it's a single item or multiple items, then get an inverter that is rated 50% more than what you expect to use. Personally I'd install a second battery in the car, isolate it with a solenoid and tie it in through a 30 amp diode controlled by a relay that is only on when the car is on. That way the battery can always be charged. If you need a drawing of such a thing I'd be happy to make one for you. Just drop me a line and give me a personal e-mail address where I can send the picture. Hope this helps. 'av'a g'day mate. ")

Haven't seen them, and batteries can be pretty pricey after a while. The only things I've seen are the 12VDC pots taht plug into the cigarette lighter in your car. That's no fun, and drains the car battery.

However, there are lots of great ways to make coffee at camp.

GSI Outdoors has some great options: http://www.gsioutdoors.com/list.aspx?c=5

A small campstove is usually all that's required, and you'll have cofffee just as fast as you would (maybe faster) than you do at home. I use the GSI Lexan Java Press - it makes really good coffee. Pressed coffee is my all time favorite.

If you like the idea of an at home coffee maker - you should get one of these: http://www.coleman.com/coleman/colemancom/detail.asp?product_id=5008C700&categoryid=2210
You put this right over a burner on a 2 burner camp stove, and it works just like an automatic drip coffee maker you probably have on your kitchen counter top. Makes great java.

Answer 5

That's all I would need in the way of heating something while camping, since I hate to cook while camping. But I have to have my coffee in the morning. It's actually very easy though to just heat water and put in those fairly new coffee packets that work just like tea packets. And the coffee doesn't taste like instant either. It actually tastes very good.

Best thing to do is to just bum coffee off of other people, since everyone else seems to like to make it besides me. I never have gone camping where at least one person didn't offer me coffee.

But then you might be camping alone, or don't want to be a bum.

Answer 6

the best way to make coffe while camping is to use a French Press. They make light weight presses made out of the same plastic as nalgenes. Simply drop grounds and boiling water into the French press, press down the grounds and you have a cup of coffee. Toss a few creamers in your pack, and you're good to go. I never go camping w/o my press these days. When i consider enjoyment vs. money spent, my french press is one of my best camping buys ever, and i camp a lot!
