What Coffee Machine do you have in your van?

The Lavazza pods are now all compostable. So no plastic waste to harm anything. Also used coffee is good to dig into your garden so a win win situation

I recycle all mine through Terra Cycle locally. The guy who collects them raises funds for Wiltshire Air Ambulance.

Solo in the van - Aeropress. Great coffee, simply.
Two up - Melitta Filter funnel. Great coffee, even simpler!
More than two up - why the hell would I invite more than two people into my van!!!

There's more of us than you'd think, but tea drinkers aren't as showy offy as coffee drinkers!

In my experience there are two types, those with teapots and those without! Sounds like a new thread

Yay for loose-leaf.

...or were you referring to sticking bags in a teapot?

Life is too short for bad coffee.

Aeropress and a hand grinder for coffee.

My wife uses a simple infuser like the one below for tea, in both the van and the house.

I'm both Team Coffee (Aeropress Go in the van for when we have time, all in one dry powder sticks when I just need caffeine to drive) and Team Tea (teabags in mug) so it's a broad church over here.

I have... too many... ways of making coffee at home.

I'd love to go to loose tea but I can't find a decent de/low caffeine loose tea (I tend to Tea drink later in the day)

After a not very thorough search, the most convincing decaffeinated tea (i.e. actually tastes like tea) I found is - don't laugh - PG Tips teabags

My wife doesn’t drink coffee, so we’re already team tea and coffee. She only drinks decaf and really likes this:
Decaf English Breakfast - Loose Black Leaf Tea

It’s gone up in price a lot though since my last order for her.

Once my current decaf supply has been exhausted (in a few months time ) I'll give that a go.

Relaxing in the van post surf session with a coffee is one of life's small but important luxuries. This moment of mediation and reflection on life can easily be spoiled on hearing; "have you got any sugar? Maybe a drop of milk?" Sorry, if it's not black, it's not coffee.

I'm not sure what passes for coffee in my house you'd accept as being the real deal regardless of "additions".

Naturally if I was in your house @Bav I would politely appreciate any beverage that you were kind enough to provide Sir.
