I came across this whilst wondering how I can get a portable caffeine fix in the van.

Mind a stove top one would be far cheaper ...

This however seems just plain wrong

A proper machine is 1300W. No socket in the van will manage one.

I know I will end up with a http://www.google.co.uk/products/ca...a=X&ei=q7CFUKShH7LL0AXu04CwBA&ved=0CG8Q8gIwAA

I got one of these:

It works pretty well, dismantles and fits all inside itself and it keeps the coffee hot, as does the insulated mug part...but now I think I probably must have the handpresso!

Lyons do coffee bags which are not bad.
I think several guys on here have the handpresso.

I have used a manual Handpresso for years in the caravan, MH, car, and Cali they work really well. If you can boil a kettle you can have decent espresso anywhere.

I saw the 12v leccy one a couple of weeks ago and and really liking the idea, but as I have 2 manual ones (use one at work which I keep in my desk drawer) it's hard to justify another. :mrgreen:

We take one of those espresso makers camping as well. We will be finding a permanent home for it in our new. Ali.
