About GSI Outdoors
GSI opened its doors in 1985, after a small group of British Columbian siblings made their way down the West Coast to San Diego. Beginning with a few pieces of blue enamelware and a smattering of campfire accessories, GSI Outdoors grew through the years to include full design, manufacturing, sales, and marketing departments, all tasked with developing and marketing an ever-more-innovative line of outdoor cookware, tableware, and accessories. Siblings Don, Ian, and Kathy Scott eventually relocated to Spokane, Washington, where they continue to define innovation through the creation of unique, imaginative, and fun products that reassert their enthusiasm for the outdoors. GSI Outdoors is still a small, privately held company, with no obligation to shareholders, a corporate board, or anyone else aside from its customers and employees.

Great for backpacking!!! Not only does this one work so well, but it is super lightweight and fits in my Toaks 1100mL pot nicely. The coffee I made out of this tasted way better than any camping coffee I have ever had before (percolators, teabag style, instant, etc.). It was so good I bought all my other backpacking friends one because they were so jealous the first trip when I had it, they all wanted a turn! It cleans off easily, I just flip it inside out and shake it, then just use a little water to rinse it off…
Great product! And update after 3 uses Well so far I tested it once at home and it works just as expected! I used it without a filter, but then the water drips through too fast and you get some weak coffee and it’s tougher to rinse out afterwards. So I will be using a filter next time for easy clean up. Worked beautifully on a hydroflask so I’m sure it will work on most things. Feels pretty darn sturdy for it’s low weight and size. Will be the best way I’ve made coffee in the backcountry I’m sure. I will be testing it out…
Weighs Next to Nothing, Collapsable, and Effective – Love It! Picked up this and the before a recent backpacking trip and love it. It weighs nothing, and has a clever versatile design that will allow it to fit a range of mugs. I used regular ground coffee with this (without any paper filter) and it worked great, producing flavorful coffee quickly and without any stray grounds. It clips plenty securely and stays in place under the weight of coffee…
