Coleman QuikPot Propane-Powered Coffee Maker – Enjoy Freshly-Brewed Coffee Anywhere!

Eric Chalifour: Cette cafetière serait parfaite si le mécanisme de versement entre le panier de café et la verseuse (pot de café) était bien conçu... il faut un alignement presque parfait de la verseuse sous le panier pour que la valve fontionne correctement sinon c'est un déversement assuré du panier à café.

Apopleo: I love this coffee pot - yes, it's a bit slow but as other said - savor the time it's brewing at your campsite watching the sun rise, etc. and then enjoy some amazing HOT coffee ! The coffee is easily as good as anything I've had at home and we have a Techovorm. This is a perfect accessory for car camping or overland vans / RVs. Unfortunately , there are a few issues. The coffee basket itself is its weak point. Finding a filter that actually works is a hassle. Choose the wrong one and you end up with an overflowed mess and coffee everywhere. Why they don't furnish a re-usable filter is beyond me. Unfortunately nothing seems to work on that front so we're stuck with paper filters that are a PAIN. Also - Coleman INSISTS on using its wonky, proprietary connections and hard lines for 1# canisters. Most of us roadies use larger propane tanks and flex hoses - so the connectors the coffee pot comes with are totally useless. Yes, there are adaptors you can use to connect the propane tanks to the 1# fitting on the regulator but you are still stuck with the funny angled hard line which really gets in the way.

What Coleman really needs to do is offer a quick disconnect type fitting...

Candice H.: I love that I don't have to use my stove for coffee with this but I thought I was purchasing a full size coffee machine

Adam Kardash: Great machine but why show a picture of the carry case if it is not included. Kinda disappointed with that, and that is why the 4 stars. The carry case is almost impossible to find, still looking. Would of been 5 if that was included.

silvergirl: Given the fact this review is for a coffee maker, it will probably be long winded, as all coffee-related reviews are. I purchased this from Amazon in summer of 2016 for camping use. Brought it to Burning Man, and used it for 2 weeks at a time, for 4 years in a row. I stored it in a dust free box during the day when not using it (Burning Man is quite dusty) and cleaned it thoroughly at the end of the camping time. I found it takes about 20 min to brew a pot of coffee, and there was a little bit of loss of water, presumably from steam loss during the brewing process. Coffee tasted great, dependent of course on the quality of coffee I used in the brew.
So over time, I found that the connector area between the propane tank and the coffee maker became more difficult to connect. The metal propane connector arm which exited the coffee maker was difficult to attach/detach due to a recessed area of connection covered by well coated wires which were difficult to push out of the way. The metal propane connector arm had a rubber o-ring in it where it paired with the propane tank; over time, I think this area degraded.
The last day I used the coffee maker, it developed a propane leak...

Jude: I use this coffee maker to serve my freshly roasted coffees at a small farmers' market. It is SLOW to brew but produces a good cup of coffee. I find it takes as long as 20 minutes to brew a pot depending on the amount of wind there is.....the windier the weather, the longer it takes.

It makes a good cup of coffee (if you put good bean in it to begin with) and does best with a medium grind. A fine ground coffee gets bitter.

I had terrible problems with the first 10 pots of coffee put through it tasting like plastic. I followed Coleman's instructions for descaling it and it didn't help much. Coleman offered to replace the unit but i really needed it to be able to brew fresh coffee in a location without electricity the weekend that I got it. I managed to get rid of the taste by filling the reservoir up with full strength vinegar, lighting the unit until just a little vinegar ran through. I turned it off and left it overnight before running that pot and another pot of vinegar through it. After a thorough rinse with 2 pots of fresh water (did I mention I went through 2 tanks of propane trying to get the taste out?) the coffee came out very well.

I have made 200+...
