Vietnamese Phin

Vietnamese style coffee – with fresh ground espresso beans.
Headed out for a walk today. it rained a bit but not so much to stop a lunch stop.
Coffee and croissants in the sun.
The stove is a “Bushcraft Essentials” twig burning wood stove with an insert for alcohol gel fuel – the insert was the bottom of a small tin of Burt’s Bees lip balm. It is not the most efficient stove but a good stand-by stove to carry with my brew kit. One measure of fuel – about 20ml – is enough to heat about 300ml of water to coffee or stock cube soup temperature. I use an up-cycled hand sanitiser bottle (60ml) to carry the fuel.

Spring is here today – I did not really need the jacket but it made a good seat. Coffee from a flask not a stove.
Out from Branston to Potterhanworth and back.
I travelled light – I carried the makings for my break in my jacket cargo pockets. Small flask, titanium Sierra cup with a folding handle, Alpkit folding spoon, instant Aldi barista coffee and some Malt Wheaties. I packed the gear in the cup and wrapped it in the bandana to stop things rattling and to protect my pocket from the ends of the cup handle.
The plastic sheet I sat on was folded and went in my trouser cargo pocket, with my gloves.
Later there was a great sunset.
