BIFL Coffee Maker (self.buyitforlife)

Looking for recommendations on coffee makers. Preferably a drip coffee maker. I've been using a percolator for years and while it usually works fine, it doesn't always brew thoroughly if the water isn't cold enough.

Maybe I should try one of these, for now I use a very similar item called the Aeropress. It does use filters though. It makes a single cup of coffee at a time

But I can take it camping

The other option, as someone else mentioned is a pour over. If you want to take something camping Stanley makes a real solid one.

I’d recommend trying a French press. It’s my preferred method as I have a lot of control over it, and unless the glass breaks, or the screen gets mangled, there’s nothing to break.

The only thing on them that isn't quite BILF is the rubber on the plunger goes after a while but you can buy new ones so it still viable
