Almost ceremonious in its preparation, there’s nothing quite like a cup of coffee in the wee morning hours before a day of camping, climbing, hiking, or really any activity. Oftentimes instant coffee is most convenient when sleeping en plein air, but just because you're "roughin' it" doesn't mean you don't deserve good freshly ground coffee. Especially if you've stayed up too late having a few too many around the campfire the night before.
VSSL, the Canadian outdoor equipment brand that specializes in adventure-ready gear rooted in self-sufficiency and wilderness survival has today released the JAVA, a fresh take on the portable, hand-held coffee grinder that pairs perfectly with any campsite coffee maker. Funded in large part by a Kickstarter campaign during late summer 2020, the JAVA is now available to the masses to satisfy coffee and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
