    I use the Brentwood cordless electric kettle. Boils a pot of water in 2 minutes, then I pour the boiling water into My yeti cup. I simply use the Folgers instant, but it's in a tea bag. It's good, not overly strong but super caffienated. The yeti cup keeps me piping hot for over 6 hours, enough so I can sip slowly and not have to stop to wiz. Got it down to a science these days !

    instant coffee is way easier than having to mess about with filters and ground coffee and pots

    That too was my concern about bringing a French Press into the truck. And yes, this new AeroPress is so simple to use and easy to clean...

    It's not just as simple as buying a coffee machine and your favorite coffee. When I'm on the road with my Mr. Coffee and Starbucks ground coffee my coffee tastes like heaven.

    When I come home with the same setup it's not that good. It's all due to the inverter running the coffee machine in the truck. It takes around 10 minutes and brews much slower. At home it brews in like 3 minutes. I make 2 cups at a time. I'm seriously considering putting an inverter type setup at home just for the coffee machine.

    If you like instant coffee, sure...
    If not, then it's not... {shrug}

    And this AeroPress is not much of a hassle at all.

    I know one person who loves coffee out of a coin operated coffee machine like at a rest area. It all depends on what you like!

    At a place I used to work at many years ago, we had one of those coin operated dispenser type machines and I remember it serving up a decent cup. Or maybe I just didn't know better.

    But I can't find one that will fit in my Volvo... LOL

    Do they make Keurig's for trucks? Bought one for the wife for Val's day, and ##### there's good stuff going on there! Starbucks is heavenly, for sure. Still love my Mr. Coffee also~!
