I know a lot of people here have a lightweight coffee brewing system they 
carry on their bikes and I just discovered a product that is extremely 
light, relatively cheap and makes a good cup of coffee with no skill 
needed.  

The product is the brew basket from the Technivorm Moccamaster Cup One 
brewer.  This brewer is designed to run 10oz of water thru 18-20 grams of 
coffee at an optimum extraction time.  The brew basket is durable plastic, 
weighs less than 1/3 of what an Aeropress weighs and has a built in rim 
that will sit on the top of a wide coffee cup.  It's designed for #1 
filters but I found that #4 filters work fine.  The brew basket is 
available from Technivorm for $15.  

The brew method is simple:

1)  Put filter in brew basket, grind coffee, add coffee to brew basket, set 
brew basket on top of cup.
2)  Heat water and pour 330ml or 10 oz of water (If you measure it once 
while at home, it's easy to approximate without measuring) into brew 
basket.  Stir
3)  Wait for coffee to drain into cup.  Takes about 4 minutes.  

It's essentially a cheap, lightweight, low-attention pour over.
