When I travel I take beans, a hand grinder, and either an Aeropress or Melitta. I’ve had to explain myself to TSA frequently…
So yeah, coffee on the road is a tough call for me. I just discovered that a place I like to stop at whose drip coffee wasn’t up to spec makes a really good iced Americano, so that’s a game changer.
I have a press that I use for touring but I have a big steel thermos if I want to meet someone for coffee on the bike. Also my yearly checkup says 112/77
