At the Ashdown meet PW had some coffee in what looked like a big toothpaste tube. I think Nestle make it and PW got it from Australia. Anyone else seen it or does anyone know where to get it in the UK?

It was really good stuff :super:

There must be an aussie shop in the uk selling it. You know the ones in London which sell veggimite and stuff so all the travellers can feel at home while they flood the bars of west london. Honestly I watched rugby in a hammersmith pub and there were more aussies kiwis and south africans than british. :shock: oops losing the thread.

I'll keep an eye out.

I din't know anything about the paste, but I have had some success using coffee pods like a coffee "tea bag". Quite a range of coffees available in these, and individually vacuum packed in many cases.

OK I'd give this a try but as a resident of South America the very thought gives me the shivers.

I've had very good luck with the "tea bags" filled with coffee from Folgers and Maxwell House. Four of them in a canteen cup gives me a pretty good all-American oversized shot of caffine. They're light weigth too, like a tea bag. Mac

They might well have an equivalent in Norway, every time I'm there I seem to see something new in a tube, they seem to like tubes. Plus they drink an awful lot of coffee... I'll have a butchers
Apparently its made in Australia and only sold there :roll: typical

I have not done it for years, but I used to wash out toothpaste tubes, make a paste with Nescafe Espresso, and syringe it into the tube...if you do not clean out the tube well enough, you WILL have a minty taste! Coffee that removes plaque? :naughty: :naughty:
