Field Notes
Three AT overnights using the AeroPress Go. The inverted method (fill the chamber, steep 60 seconds, press slowly) produces a full-bodied concentrate that beats any other camp brewing method I have tried. My 15-year-old daughter tried camp coffee for the first time from an AeroPress and declared it better than the coffeeshop we drove by that morning.
11oz, 90-second brew, better than most coffee shops — the camp coffee maker you bring and never leave behind
Who This Is For
The AeroPress Go is right for: any hiker who cares about coffee quality and is willing to carry 11oz, coffee-shop regulars who refuse to drink instant, and car campers who want espresso-quality without a full machine.

How It Compares
Common Questions
Is the AeroPress worth it for camping?
Yes, for coffee drinkers who care about quality. At 11oz and $40, it is heavier and more expensive than instant coffee. But the coffee quality is genuinely exceptional — full-bodied, smooth, and adjustable for strength. For a 5-day AT section hike, 11oz is the weight of one energy bar. The coffee it makes over 10 mornings is worth it.
How do you use the AeroPress Go camping?
Add 1 AeroPress scoop of medium-fine ground coffee to the chamber. Pour hot water (175-185°F) to the number 1 line. Stir once. Press slowly for 20-30 seconds. Add hot water to taste for Americano or drink concentrated for espresso-style. Total: under 90 seconds.
Can you make cold brew with the AeroPress Go?
Yes — add coffee, pour cold water instead of hot, stir, and steep in the inverted position for 12-24 hours. Pour directly over ice. Cold brew made in the AeroPress is smoother and less acidic than hot brew. This works in camp with stream water that has been filtered and cooled.
What coffee grind works best for AeroPress?
Medium to medium-fine grind. Too fine clogs the filter and slows pressing; too coarse produces watery coffee. Pre-ground coffee marketed for espresso or drip is typically an appropriate grind for AeroPress.
