I never tire of telling people about an old friend's ex UK Forestry Commission Landrover 110. It had a neat sink with tap fed by water from a tank located somewhere in the engine bay. The whole thing was hidden behind a small door on the front fender. It allowed workers to wash up with hot water before driving home!Amskeptic wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 8:18 pmI have tried Starbucks Verano and a cup-sized press. A little too unfiltered. What I want to do is come up with an instantaneous heat exchanger that gives me genuine hot water.

I guess it is a bit froufrou for camping, but it would be functional, being genuinely off-the-grid ready. But Starbuck's instant coffee is also quite good, if all you want to do is boil water.Amskeptic wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 9:11 amBeautiful, I'd roll with that at my 7,000 square foot summer cottage out at the pool promenade station.hippiewannabe wrote: ↑Sun May 05, 2019 10:01 amIt uses stove alcohol and is poetry in motion. And makes an amazing cup of coffee.

Re: Lull? What Lull?
Well, watercooling allows some temperature modulation. My 718* exhaust pipes would likely cause a super-heated steam explosion ... and shattered pieces of manifold falling off of the car at the first bump.tommu wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 10:37 pmI never tire of telling people about an old friend's ex UK Forestry Commission Landrover 110.

I am eternally grateful for your banzai run back from Chicago to allow arrival of the new clutch disk and getting everything back together. Your enthusiasm and leadership in dividing up the sub-tasks for my kids to participate was also a joy.
