Summary
Works great. Lightweight.
Pros
- Lightweight
- 5 cups capacity
Aluminum construction, well made.
If you want some deluxe coffee, then this works just fine. I use this for short trips like 1-2 day hikes.
The handles cool off quickly, so after you perk you can grab it with a bandanna or a bare hand shortly after the joe is brewed.
Pours without drips and runs.
Better to get a fine ground versus a percolator grind (typically pretty coarse) with this setup. Nice strong oily beans ground fine will nuke you into oblivion as the sun rises.
A hiking luxury.
