Why Use a Thermal Coffee Maker?

One of the latest and greatest technologies in coffee brewing is the use of a thermal coffee maker. This type of coffee maker uses a thermal carafe to brew into, as opposed to a traditional glass carafe. So what’s so great about that?

The reason that a thermal coffee maker is so useful is because it uses double walled stainless steel to preserve the coffee product and keep it hot for hours at a time. Depending on the manufacturer, your thermal coffee maker may have the ability to keep your coffee hot for up to six hours. This type of coffee maker also does not use a warming burner, so it will not burn your coffee and cause it to become bitter.

If you are using a traditional drip brew coffee maker to brew your Java at home, then it is best to go thermal because that provides you with the capability to seal your coffee after it has been freshly brewed so that it remains hot and delicious for hours at a time!

Coffee Camping Help

If you are an avid outdoorsman or woman, then you probably have discovered by now that you still need your coffee. Am I right? One way to go about this is to take advantage of some of the coffee technologies available to you, even though that may seem sacrilegious in the great outdoors.


A fantastic choice is the Bodum Travel Press Tumbler. This is perfect because you can French Press brew your own coffee within one mug, so all you need is some hot water to help you perk up in the morning.

Another interesting option is the MugMate, which works similar to a drop-down coffee filter that you will place directly into your cup of hot water. This again filters out the coffee grounds so that you can remove them when the coffee is done steeping.

Finally, check out the cup.pour.ri for a truly rustic option. This is a spoon with a coffee filter attached to it. You can fill it up with coffee grounds, and then stir it within your hot water to create a delicious cup of Joe.

Even when you are camping, you don't have to be without your coffee!
