Now this makes sense...

I've been meaning to get around to making something along these lines to deal with excess Mahi Mahi and Tuna for jerky making as well as fruit when it's cheap...


 Looks like just the thing!

The perfect boat coffee maker...

The espresso maker we mostly use on "So It Goes" is just a bit past it's sell by date and every day I expect it to go towards the light...

While we have a French press style coffee maker the problem is it's glass and just that little too delicate for life aboard a sailboat so we never use it as the practical toughness of our espresso make always wins out.

That said, I really like French press coffee and have been keeping an eye out for years for something tough enough for the boat and not plastic... I don't know about you but for me coffee brewed in plastic always tastes... Well, kinda like plastic!

So I was very happy to find that Coleman has a new (well at least to me) all stainless French press coffee maker and it is exactly what I have been searching for...

Life is GOOD!

A proper waffle iron...


Since we were speaking of waffles...

I've been looking for a decent stove top waffle iron for ages! It's crazy that these days an electric waffle maker costs less than a proper hold over the fire waffle iron but then I guess that's progress.

GSI who makes some great backpacking cookery gear has just the thing. Even better the handles come off so it makes stowing it away on  space challenged boats just that little bit easier.
