Last time I checked, hunting is a pastime for most of it, so how we do it is up to us and may involve comforts as you stated. Bet you hunt completely but naked for maximum immersion

Are you hunting....or sipping latte? Do you have to carry it or not - that was how I should have phrased my question - an if you're not having to carry it.... are you actually hunting?

...actually.... I rephrase again: are you an Aucklander?...

What is “actually hunting”? Maybe I’m missing out on something

I don’t have to ask, your comment just implied that you knew better or believe there’s only one way to hunt.
Have you got something to add about how you make good coffee in the bush? If not, move along please.

Stash the ground beans in the pot for transit etc.

Stove top takes up minimal space at camp and can get it going quick if you use warm water.
I put it on a knock off jet boil, with stove ring reducer and it works a treat.

Similar setup to below:

Got one of those secreted away at a bivvy camp up in the mountains.

Use a cheap Vietnamese coffee dripper that weighs a couple of 10s of grams when weight is an issue

...and back on topic...I typically just use Jeds Bags, as i like simple mug of good black coffee in the morning. Light and easy to and no additions required to my Jetboil Flash system to use.

In saying that i have been pondering about getting the Jetboil coffee plunger accessory, so i can take my go to plunger coffee to enjoy (another Hummingbird Oomph fan here too).

Yep really enjoy these. I'm a simple black coffee guy and these work a treat.

thats an aeropress

No wonder hes chill after a " coffee ". Here I thought it was a caffeine thing. ... might have to ask for a sip next time...

Aeropress works well once you get the ratio of coffee right. I use the same plunger coffee that we use at home.

Nice and easy!
Be cool if you can get espresso with decent crema out of it, but probably would have to grind fresh etc.
