Thanks for the replies but i am bamboozled at the choices out there now

I wouldn't know a 'filtered' coffee if it hit me in the face, i am a simple bloke who just wants a standard Nescafe instant brew to wake up with in the morning

You won't go wrong with a small Coleman or Camping Gaz cartridge and burner to match just to make a cup of coffee.That's all I've ever used for years.Any outdoors shop will be able to sort you out with that.

Camping gaz cartridges are available almost everywhere, and proper coffee is good to wake up to!

Here is my set up--the burner is cheap from China--so is the butane adaptor (those cans are readily available for bigger camping cookers--and cheap). The "tube" and plate are my own make-didn't take more than an hour--but any bit of tubeof the right diameter with a closed end and a plate for support will do--the wing nut will sit in the dirt but on a flat surface a couple of sticks will make it level-the tube and plate are carbon cos I can!--just waiting for a 3 quid fold flat windshield--again from China--don't seem to buy anything from "Europe " these days!

Wot he said ,,of all the pieces of kit I use for bike camp trips (and I don't mean a wee bike rally) this is the most useful piece of kit EVER

Camping stoves are very subjective, what suits some may not suit others. I dont like the Jetboil/Brewkit type stoves.
For decades i used a Campingaz Bleuet, which was not only used on my bike trips & rallies, it was also used all the years i was a trucker and lived in the cab all week.
These can still be picked up secondhand for a few quid. The gas cannisters are cheap as well, about £1 each.



About 5 yrs back i retired it and now use a Gelert Intensity, which is copy of the MSR Pocket Rocket. These tyes of stoves can be bought for under £5 on Ebay from China. Gas is a bit more expensive at around £3 a cannister.



I also have a Trangia copy, that came from either Lidl or Aldi and cost about £7.... but dont use it much. It takes up more room and they're slow. Although they're handy at lower temps, that would afect gas cannisters.

I have had a Primus Eta Express for many years and find it a great compact and lightweight stove. The pot design with the heat exchanger on the bottom boils very quickly but it is still versatile enough for cooking something more substantial with. I like that it also has its own sparker so no more looking for matches/lighter. They come up on the 'Bay every now and then.

For a long time now I have been taking coffee bags whilst away. Not many people know about them but they are the same as a tea bag, just twice the size, taste far far better than cheap instant, and available from most supermarkets. Worth hunting out IMO.
