Don't forget that you need a grinder as well. If you love coffee, you never use pre-ground beans!

On the other hand: "Great coffee everywhere where there's electricity" - it works even with a campfire out in the forest! (as long as you have a manual, not electric, grinder - and of course you have that!)

In several Norwegian folk museums, the guide may show a device, asking the audience what they think it is for. If there is any suggestion at all, it is usually 'A kettle for making popcorn'. (The device is probably a hundred years older than the first popcorn in Norway!) But it is a kettle for roasting coffee beans. Hundred years ago, buying un-roasted coffee beans at the supermarket was quite common, so you could roast it to your own taste, usually on a wood stove. I never saw unroasted coffee in the food stores in my lifetime, and the only place to find a roasting kettle would be to steal one from a museum Smile | :)

Maybe green coffee and roasters are commonly available in other countries. If you really want to live an independent life, and make stuff suit your taste, you really should start roasting your own coffee. Maybe you should even try to grow your own coffee beans. Norwegian climate forbids that, but further south you might be able to take them all the way from seeds, to plants to berries to roasted and ground beans. I guess that you can do most of it by hand, using no sort of machinery.
