Coffee is the Most Important Meal of the Day: VSSL Java

I ‘m pretty much useless without my first cup of coffee when I’m out on the trail.

Let’s be honest, most outdoor coffee experiences fall pretty flat and a mediocre cup of coffee is quite possibly the worst thing in the world. That’s where our friends from VSSL come in. They created the VSSL Java from durable aircraft-grade aluminum with 30 different grind settings for the perfect grind no matter what your preferred method of brewing might be.

VSSL’s Clip-and-Flip carabiner to grind handle is an innovative way to make sure the handle never goes missing while also creating an easy way to attach it to a backpack or to a bungee system in your van or overland rig.

The VSSL Java coffee grinder will retail for $145, but early Kickstarter backers can get it for a discounted price. Expected delivery is February 2021.
