MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted September 15, 2020 I decided a long time back not to use Starbucks products so I switched to an aeropress and brought my own home ground coffee backpacking or packing mules. It’s a lot more work and I would like to have some instant coffee packets again. Anyone know of an alternative company like one of these military startups that have instant??? Any good??? I’m a coffee snob so leave out the Folgers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigorange Report post Posted September 15, 2020 Black Rifle Coffee makes an instant...similar to the Starbucks Via I think. I haven’t tried it but I’ve heard good stuff about it. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eddielasvegas Report post Posted September 15, 2020 My elk scouting and hunts are coming up so timely topic. Thanks. I'm a bit of a coffee snob too but cleaning up a french press while in the field uses too much water and is just nasty and not efficient. Going to have to try the Cafe Bustelo instant.

bigorange Report post Posted September 15, 2020 I’ve had the Bustelo keurigs which are good...haven’t tried the instant though. I’ll give those a try next week on quick scouting trip with my buddy. I usually use Aeropress too but it does get a little messy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
