A French Press coffee maker; for bean grinding I use a small meat tenderizing hammer and plastic bag (bags don't last more than a few bean-crushing episodes) or a small round tupperware-type container (cuz it's tough to crush beans back into a corner!)... not perfect but effective for me- altho I prefer the crushing be done in the open tupperware container, so you get that nice fresh grind/crush aroma.
Happy T'Giving,

camping in Vanagon campers.
When you are camping away from electric sites, how do you make coffee?
Well, duh, I mean what kind of equipment do you use, especially to grind
the beans? I'm kind of a coffee snob, gotta grind those beans just
before the water hits them!
