How to make coffee anywhere....

I'm no MacGyver. In fact, I'm sort of the anti-MacGyver. Where he can create elaborate solutions with simple everyday objects, I tend to break things effortlessly and render them useless.

That is why I was particularly pleased with myself this morning.

PROBLEM: The base of the Trangia stove is too wide for my brand spanking new GSI Espresso maker, causing it to fall in between the supports.

SOLUTION: Bend bicycle spoke to create enough of a surface to support the espresso maker.


Coffee maker falling through the cracks!


My contribution to the world.


How it works.


Yay! Coffee!


Surprisingly, it works rather well.
