Presenting Pocket Coffee

The compact coffee press and alcohol burning stove for the minimalist outdoors enthusiast on the go.

A New Solution to an Age-Old Problem

The outdoors-person has a wide variety of stoves, pans, and other kitchen-wares available for preparing an evening meal or a hearty breakfast in the wilderness. A long-distance hiker or bicycle tourist finds great comfort in a warm meal at the end of a difficult journey, but manufacturers currently ignore the needs of the more modest adventurer on a brief excursion.

Pity the poor day hiker in need of a fresh cup of coffee! This wretched soul has hither-to been forced to either bear the burden of an over-dimensioned camping cook-set, suffer the indignity and clumsiness of stale coffee from a vacuum flask, or go without.

Pocket Coffee to the Rescue

Utilizing an optimized, lightweight and simple low-pressure sideburner alcohol burning stove unit, compact pot with incorporated handle, and separate press mechanism with molded-in sip-lid, Pocket Coffee is a complete system for preparing a cup of coffee in the open air.

Nevermore must a brave day-tripper let a thirst for a piping-hot cup of Java go unsatiated.

A simple tool

Pocket Coffee's simple and proven alcohol burning stove is the heart of the pocket coffee concept. Once primed, the pan may be placed directly on the stove, eliminating the need for a separate pot stand. In normal conditions the little stove will bring 2.5dl of water to boil in mere minutes.

Robust construction

The Pocket Coffee stove and pot are are manufactured entirely of lightweight, tough, and heat-conductive stamped sheet aluminum. The press mechanism is injected-molded in food-safe plastic, with an aluminum coffee screen affixed to the under-side. The proven and inexpensive materials and production technique ensure that Pocket Coffee is fairly priced, and affordable to adventurers of all types.

Truly compact

With a packed size of 10cm in diameter and approximately 5cm in height, Pocket Coffee is truly compact, and with a total weight of less than 100 grams there is room for it in any pack or pocket. Indeed, Pocket Coffee weighs far less than any combination kit available on the market, and less even than an insulated vacuum flask.

The stove element sits snugly inside the press mechanism, protecting it from shakes and preventing rattling. The entire kit fits inside the accompanying pot.



A versatile piece of kit

Despite its name, the Pocket Coffee stove and pot can be used to prepare any warm beverage, powdered soup, or a single portion of porridge.

Pocket Coffee is suitable for use during simple day hikes, ski outings, day-long bicycle tours, or any other outdoor activity when a warm beverage might be appreciated. True minimalists may choose to use Pocket Coffee as their primary cooking kit during more prolonged expeditions, but that is not this product's intended use.

A product of its time

Today's informed and cosmopolitan outdoor enthusiasts refuse to settle for the outdated and clumsy solutions of yesteryear. Pocket Coffee allows connoisseurs the pleasure of a hot and freshly brewed cup of coffee anywhere with ease.
