Mercy me!  How do you get all that  through TSA?  Not to mention, even on to a cruise ship.  Compound all that with the fact that you're Australian, and probably a terrorist or drug smuggler.  (Those beans look terribly suspicious).  Better step over here and get a thorough screening. 

Not to mention the fact that the cruise line won't be able to sell you a 'coffee package'.

Very suspicious indeed!

Lol. 

I only take the flair if I am not flying to the port, and checked in luggage only(cue the "hands tired jokes lol"). When weight or space is an issue I take my aeropress or my new delter press (highly recommended).

I’m glad I’m not a coffee fanatic when I see all that, rarely drink coffee but when I do I want a good one so would probably end up needing all that gear or more.

Andlep,

When and how much Vegamite do you add to your coffee?

Is that the OZ version of #4?

 

Andlep:  While your methods do produce great coffee, I use Chemex and French Press at home, to me they are such a pain in the arse to clean up after on a ship.  And in the time it takes room service to deliver the hot water, I've been tot he specialty coffee kiosk and returned and am sipping away on the balcony.  What's your secret on the ship that makes these methods useful?

The secret is the quality and freshness of the beans I bring make a coffee worth the trouble.

May I ask where your beans come from?  Local roaster?  Thai Peaberry?  Sumatra? Papua New Guinea?

They are from a local roaster who has a blend  I really like. Google tells me you have lots of roasters in Tallahassee which is good to see 🙂

[crewsweeper]

A couple. Lucky Goat is the major one.  Good African beans.

 

I buy a lot of my coffee from Mountain Bird in Arkansas.  Central American beans.  Owner roaster is an old childhood neighbor.
