    I have screen filter left over from a burton 12 volt that didn't last 5 brews.

    figured I use that to strain. I think I'll expand a little, I dont visit starbucks to often. if I do I'm in and out with $6.00 cup of whatever.

    Chinaman. And to think I used to respect you .

    My heart misses my hot young little Italian Girlfriend that moved back to Europe.
    But my taste buds and stomach miss the little pizzeria we used to go to on a daily basis on Lake Lugano.

    Either you are one of those people that thinks greasy New York. Pizza is real pizza or you went to the wrong pizzeria in Italy

    Ok, I was searching that areopress coffee press and I think I like it. I used a French Press at an office job many years back and liked it but thought cleaning the grinds out of the bottom each time might be problematic in a truck environment... The areopress looks similar but the grounds in up in the bottom cap of the press... Looks promising...

    Plus, in searching, I stumbled upon this java jug thing too... http://javagear.co/javajug/

    Looks like it would be better and sturdier option than pressing the coffee into my cheap plastic Pilot/Flyin J "philmor" cup...

    And it then doubles as a storage container for the areopress... I think I might be sold!!!

    Speaking of Italy

    You have to appreciate the AutoGrill. Truckstops over there.

    They are right off the highway no turns just a hard deceleration. And you are there in a couple 100 feet.

    Fresh panini sandwiches and pizza along with great cheeses and cold cuts washed down with fine Italian Expresso or a number of great beers on tap

    Love the AutoGrill, used to hit it every night on my way back to Lugano after a night of bar hopping in Milan.

    We need those stand up espresso bars over here. And urinals that spray water while you pee.
