Dear God, Starbucks in Spain must be abysmal then.Although, for what it's worth...Starbucks in other countries tastes different, they have to match their local cafe's quality. It's just the UK and US one that is bad.
Funnily enough, the best coffee I've had, anywhere, is at a small cafe in Portree on the Isle of Skye called Birch. Phenomenally good, light roasted espresso, perfectly dialled in. I'm so used getting inferior coffee when away from home that it was a genuine surprise.Yeah, I don't understand how Starbucks has the following that it does. I've given it a few chances but I've never once made it through an entire cup. The stuff is horrendous.
For myself, if I absolutely must have a high street coffee I think I enjoy Nero the most. I don't really buy coffee when I'm out as nothing tastes as good as what I have at home. Coffee #1 and Boston Tea Party make a coffee I don't hate.
I also buy coffee from where I buy my beans from and funnily enough they're the cheapest too. £2 for a flat white that's actually crafted with care.
For me it's a small mokapot. It's light and easy to use on a campstove and pretty quick, and you can use it on a teeny tiny stoveSo what's the best option for hiking/camping coffee making? Aeropress? Some kind of pour over setup?
Looking for something lightweight, not too bulky and I'll be using it for wild camping and multi-day hikes.
And you need to boil water anyway so now it’s all in one vessel. It’s also light and pretty indestructible. I’d go with this too. An aeropress seems like a good idea but you will need the paper filter, or you can use the metal mesh then there’s also the case of looking for a flat sturdy service to push down. There are more variables to think about.For me it's a small mokapot. It's light and easy to use on a campstove and pretty quick, and you can use it on a teeny tiny stove
JetBoil seems a good, compact option. It has a coffee press accessory which converts the cooking "pan" into a cafetiere.So what's the best option for hiking/camping coffee making? Aeropress? Some kind of pour over setup?

If you already have a grinder I'd go separates like and get a one cup filter option -
I keep looking at clever dripper , or these look interesting https://www.cremashop.eu/en/products/planetary-design/double-shot-with-bru-stop/4927
so that I could make one cup of filter and replace the instant coffee I drink.
I just have a V60 and filters in the van. I do have a JetBoil but don't have the cafetiere attachment. Just boil the water, put V60 over a thermos and pour.So what's the best option for hiking/camping coffee making? Aeropress? Some kind of pour over setup?

Reminds me of this.Starbucks tastes like burnt mud, I don't know how anyone can drink it. McDonalds, Greggs, *every* other option is better.
