Brew & Enjoy Coffee Anywhere: GSI Commuter Java Press

[@thenextarcher]

Iv been testing one out for a couple weeks now. I absolutely love mine. Iv found it to be even better than my standard coffee maker

[@gideonstactical]

thenextarcher 100% agree

[@TheWilderness333]

Man, you're becoming my new Nutnfancy in that you keep making me buy awesome stuff :) Great vid, thx.

[@gideonstactical]

TheWilderness333 that is a huge compliment! Thank you

I currently live and work in a developing country, so good coffee is hard to come by. I'm definitely gonna have to look into this on my next trip home to the states. One thing I would suggest is to have your hiking partner to bring a second container to serve it in, French press coffee overextracts and turns bitter if it sits in the press

[@chriscon8463]

That looks great! Looks relatively easy to clean, too. We currently use a Bodum press, but it's kind of a pain to clean when camping. My wife & I just had a serious discussion about (gasp) switching to instant coffee! This looks like a good alternative!

[@gideonstactical]

Chris Con ya! Way better then instant and fast cleaning

[@oldgeccko8207]

that's a Cool way to always have fresh Coffee. I have a Starbucks French Press cup and it took awhile to get the grounds right too, in some ways that's simpler to use. Great Video.

[@gideonstactical]

old geccko thanks for watching

[@oldgeccko8207]

gideonstactical I try to never miss your videos, I enjoy the reviews and finding out about New stuff, keep up the good work.

[@wordwalker3]

Hummm, I'll need to think about this one. The Contigo west Loop auto seal travel mug is the only one I'll use in the car, period. Besides, the screen and rod assembly from a Bodum french press will fit a Stanley Adventure cook set. You can pick up needed parts from the thrift store or Ebay for $10-15, especially if the glass was broken!

[@davidmayle6103]

French press coffee is pretty good, just need to get the grinds the correct size. When camping I prefer percolated coffee. If your hiking and trying to go light pour over coffee is good to.

[@shcmoly]

Got one a couple of years ago, not the lightest but works on the drive or car camping. Titanium cup and filter work better for backpacking. I like it.

[@Shooter11B]

Great piece of kit!! Thanks for sharing and the heads up!

[@gideonstactical]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@johnsokirka4747]

Lol. My luck I just got a Aeropress yesterday. Thanks for the review I still may get one.

[@AZDesertExplorer]

Let’s talk about your coffee consumption... It’s on point.

[@Andrew-eo1vq]

Btw 2.5 tbs of grounds 2cups hot water 4-5 minutes....perfect

[@matthewtaylor9063]

Thanks for sharing I like giving and making coffee for friends, this is perfect for camping and hiking. Is it time for more coffee my friend?

[@gideonstactical]

Matthew Taylor I am running low, not a huge fan of the intelegencia though. What were your thoughts on it?

[@matthewtaylor9063]

gideonstactical told my friend get me back to Pete's

[@StormLaker]

I love mine a lot- it's almost a little TOO convenient to take to work with me. My wife made an Austin Powers movie reference though when she saw me disassemble it out of the box..."It's not mine...really!" haha.

[@jimburwell8405]

That’s awesome & perfect - back to Amazon!😆

[@yetirn8786]

I love french press coffee!!! I purchased this one after viewing your video. I'm impressed with every aspect of this press except one (and I've owned a lot of presses). Are you experiencing a less than optimal pour when moving the brewed coffee to another container? Mine is spilling all down the side and mucking up my sleeve. :(

[@yetirn8786]

@@j.c.5480 ...the insulated sleeve on the coffee press. 😑

[@kevzomandac9028]

Remove the cap

[@Scorpiuszeroone]

I have to put one of these in my kit. I hate having to settle for instant coffee out in the sticks.

[@gideonstactical]

Scorpiuszeroone agreeed!

[@jasonvassallo6677]

Great item!

[@fbnc11]

Great review, GSI makes great products. I had to go make coffee after watching this.

[@gideonstactical]

fbnc11 haha nice

[@jamesmurphy8014]

French press on a mountain top. Can it get any better? Great review.

[@gideonstactical]

James Murphy amen!!

[@KaylynnStrain]

I bet this could also do loose leaf tea

[@sonicmaniac8826]

wow! love the background scenery brother... love your watch with the button compass I love all g shocks but that one kicks butt have ever tried getting the solar version?

[@weliveitadventures9164]

Great Video!! Well done. Now I have to get one!

[@LTT.Official]

That green screen background looks so real :D

[@jadestar1580]

Definitely going to get one of those. My question is, does the water reservoir have cup measurements on the inside so you don't have to measure? Thanks for the video.

[@gideonstactical]

Jade Star it does not have any markings for how any oz.

[@chasewildermuth4069]

We're is that beautiful spot? Looks like great backpacking

[@gideonstactical]

Chase Wildermuth it was!!

[@moszkovitz]

I have this stuff, why no one shows full pressing? Because it's leaking, neoprene is always flooded.

[@TheDrewchebag]

Can you use pre-ground bagged coffee or will it be too fine?

[@gideonstactical]

Andrew Moniz ya just get a little coarser if you can

[@nickpick3818]

Thanks for helping me find a gift :D

[@chaosncheckt9356]

I purchased one but unfortunately after a few uses I just discarded it. My issue was the rubber lid. Mine had an odor and even after multiple runs through the dishwasher I couldn't get rid of the smell. It was in the rubber and I complained to the company and they acknowledged it, said use dish washing soap and continue to clean it in a dishwasher and it would eventually go away. Never happened so it went in the trash. Shame, the concept is solid and the mug itself seemed well made and the lid wasn't bad design wise, just poor choice in production material.

[@thegeneral123]

11k altitude? Wow, do you feel that?

[@gideonstactical]

thegeneral123 not when you live at a mile high year round but, 14k you do start to feel it pretty good

[@GyrlBlaque]

I would use it for tea

[@Ben-et8wh]

dthrow it in the fire, coffee grounds are actually great for the soil, just throw them about in the forest IMO

[@Snyperx77]

I am guessing incorrect ground size is the reason for the unfavorable reviews I have seen. I still bought one :-)

[@andrear5730]

Nice camera work...

[@gideonstactical]

Andrea Ruffini thank you

[@samcurrant3390]

is it glass or plastic?

[@gideonstactical]

It is a polymer
