MSR WindBurner Coffee Press Kit

Gets the job done. Lighter than packing a separate french press. In my experience some grounds will get in the coffee but obv way less than cowboy coffee so for me it's still worth bringing.My biggest annoyance is with the smallest fuel canister stored in my 1L Windburner just juuuust barely doesn't fit with the lid. Seriously if the pot was like 1/4" taller it would be perfect. Not a huge deal because the lid does kinda fit on there it just pops off really easily. But when I'm backpacking my pack is stuffed tight so it's not like it's going anywhere. Car camping is a different story. But when car camping I just bring the Windburner and a separate french press .

I really love my Windburner stove, and I kinda wished this would have come with the stove, but MSR's products are generally 5 star equipment, so I was willing to spend the $19 to get the press. The parts are very well made, either aluminum or sturdy plastic. The press nests easily with the stove, so it doesn't add any more space than the stove would normally take up in your gear. For my test, I filled up the pot to the max fill line (20 oz) and heated the water until it was just about to boil. I used regular ground Folgers coffee, which is a normal size grind. I used three heaping tablespoons of coffee. Gave it a nice stir, and let it sit for about 2 min. The press worked pretty well. There were about 2-3 grinds floating in my coffee cup after I poured it from the Windburner pot. No coffee press is perfect, so I can live with this. The coffee was very good. Cleaning up any coffee press is usually not a fun task. Here's my only complaint, or maybe warning - be careful with the aluminum rod when you are pulling the press back up. You'd be wise to give the windburner pot time to cool after ALL THE COFFEE has been poured out. If you do that, you'll be fine. I was concentrating so hard on making sure not to touch any metal part of the windburner pot, I forgot about the aluminum rod on the press. You can't remove the lid on the pot until you pull the press up first. Make sure you only pull on the red plastic grip at the top of the rod. The hot coffee heats the aluminum rod to the point where you can get a mild burn if you try to pull the press up by gripping the aluminum rod instead of the red plastic cap. Other than this issue (which is avoidable), it's a great product.

Durable, breaks down for easy storage and most importantly, no grinds sneak by it.

Perfect companion for the MSR Windburner kit - fits right inside the Windburns typical storage footprint. Its maybe not as tight of a seal as the Coleman coffee press kit- but does the job. You will get a few granules of coffee through- but nothing to ruin your morning.If you are going light weight and doing multi-day excursions this is the ticket for sure.

this works fantastically...I bought and coarse ground the coffee for this...not a single coffee grain got the through....

I got it Saturday. And assembled it. And filled it with grinded coffee. I used it with an old JETBOIL propane can that I have some fuel left inside. And the coffee I made, tastes as it came out of a percolator. Great stuff. And as always MOUNTAIN SAFETY RESEARCH (MSR) makes great gear.

I am super stoked to add this to my windburner. The construction feels just a tad flimsy, so I have concerns about durability. I tend to be pretty careful with my gear, so I don't foresee any problems, but I can just tell that this will need to be babied in order to make it last (that's my impression - time will tell).

Yeah this thing rocks! I just made some coffee in it to try it out. I used Cafe Bustelo. which is my favorite expresso ground coffee.some of The expresso grounds made it through the mesh. but not enough to complain about. prolly a regular ground wouoldnt as much. I like my coffee strong, so you need to use about 4 tlbs, Stir it in well. then slowly press it down, let it sit a min or two. and BAM. great coffee. quick and easy for camping. doesnt use much fuel to boil.

Un gran accesorio para el MSR windburner, compré el modelo para la olla de 1 lt, fácil de usarse, simple y ligero. Recomendable

A bit costly for what it is but on the whole it does what I need it to.

It really is a luxury. It folds away beautifully and fits inside the (already packed) Windburner so nicely. First time I used it a non-camper was amazed and showed it around the camp. If you have a Windburner and like coffee, why wouldn’t you?

Si compraste ya el windburner, vale mucho la pena agregar esto también.Me gusta porque es fácil de usar, relativamente rápido y puedes obtener hasta 3 tazas (700ml) de café, que es bastante para una cafetera portátil.

Excelente accesorio para la MSR windburnerd
