Coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon, maybe a cocktail before dinner... and yes, lots of water in between. I've been testing a device that can handle all of these, and it does so in a compact, easy-to-transport container: the Hibear 32oz All-Day Adventure Flask.
It looks great on the kitchen counter, and it's completely at home on the road. I've been using mine for pour-over coffee in the morning and green tea in the afternoon. The Hibear comes with all the attachments your need except for the #2 paper filters for the cafe.
Pour-over has been my camping go-to for years. But it was one mug at a time, and the coffee cooled quickly if left unattended for cooking and other chores. With the Hibear, the brew is stored in a double-walled stainless steel container that holds up to three mugs, and I only pour out what I need at the moment. The remaining coffee stays hot until I'm ready for it.
The clever system works by unscrewing the top part of the flask, inverting it, screwing it into the multipurpose attachment, then adding the paper filter and coffee. I boil water using my Stoke Voltaics Electric Kettle, pour it over the grounds into the insulated container, re-invert the top, seal everything up until I'm ready to enjoy a cup of piping hot coffee.
The kit also includes a micro-perforated steel basket that also connects to the multipurpose attachment. I use it for brewing loose-leaf tea. Once again, everything stays hot until I'm ready to enjoy it.
If I want to change gears and go cold, I can use the Thermal Core that I prefreeze. It also screws into the multipurpose attachment. The advantage of using this instead of ice is that the drink stays cold, but doesn't get diluted as the ice melts. This works with tea, cocktails, and even soft drinks.
When I'm out and about, I like to drink coconut water diluted 1:1. Using the Thermal Core, the drink remains exactly as I mixed it, hours later, and it's still refreshingly cold. Once the day is done, I rinse off the core, dry it, and store it in the freezer so it's ready for the next adventure.
On the bottom of the container is a silicone sleeve that can slide off and be used as a drinking cup. Removing it reveals the commissioned artwork for that model of container. It's a nice touch.
The entire kit weighs 2.18 pounds, is 11" tall, 3.7" wide, with a 32-ounce capacity. All of the materials are top quality, and replacement parts are available if needed, including an extra set of silicone gaskets.
The Hibear 32oz All-Day Adventure Flask Kit is available for $95, and there are several design options. I've been using mine at home and on the road, and love it!
