Lyons Coffee Bags

Thanks for the tip.  We love to chill around 11.00 am with a good cup of 'proper' coffee.

I'm addicted to fresh coffee, even when travelling. I resort to the packs of plastic filter cups on the move so the bags are an easier idea. 

We first tried a cafetiere, then we tried the coffee bags, then the little plastic filter cups. Now back with the cafetiere that for us seems to be the best option and we just empty the coffee grounds into the bin before washing the jug.

I also use a cafetiere when away but after trying every conservable way of making good coffee at home  nothing beats the Nespresso machine I’ve got.

I use a cafetiere on site but when on the move I use something quick and easy.

We have been using them for some time, since being advertised in the CC monthly mag, and they have just been rebranded and repackaged called No. 3.

Look out when they are on offer for £1.75 and stock up, normally £2.60.

What, you don't take the Nespresso machine carravaning?

No neither do we. But not for the want of other half trying.

re coffee bags, yes i used to buy them in bulk for my parents when on offer.

Unfortunately i didn't like the coffee bags but we did take the nespresso machine with us.  Then i kept my eyes open for a good deal and bought one of the smaller models that we keep in the van.  Yes i know the coffee is expensive but we do like it!

I'm not that keen on coffee bags either, they've been around for awhile, I'd forgotten about them. Useful with a flask on a journey. I think this is a true coffee addicts thread.

I only drink Coffee so like a nice mugful (Not a cup).

That really is the nub of the problem. Have tried several of the coffee machines using the little metalic coffee "tablets" that you insert into the machine, but they dont seem to be designed to deliver a mugful, - only a little Italian style cupful. No good for me!

At the moment quite happy with Kenco Columbian instant that does deliver a very nice mugful.  But the coffee bags that you suggest are certainly worth a try.

If only the machines that claim to deliver a genuinely good coffee, did so in proper mug sized quantities I would have one!
