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.
sound familar...am not as precise as my kid who does 4:6 method, but I have french press, aero press, mellita (2 sizes) Hario V60, and clever coffee dripper. The Clever is my go to at home and a #2 filter one cup mellita at work
black oak is my go to for beans https://blackoakcoffee.com/collectio...AaArxWEALw_wcB

but one that will have a new site up soon is fogline
