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:


You can buy squeezy tubes made by Nalgene or some such - save rushing the toothpaste!

Hi guys,

many years ago, in my student time my later wife and me used to help some elderly woman who lived near the house were we rented each a small room.

She was from Indonesia and came to the Netherlands when the Dutch left Indonesia after the bloody fight for freedom in Indonesia just after WW II.

She was real old and we helped a lot with getting groceries and just talk to her as she was living alone in a small apartment for older people intermixed between "normal" houses.

Anyhow, the first time she asked if we liked a coffe she took a small cook pot and spooned 1 spoon of molasses like almost black stuff into a cup and took an old coper water kettle from the gas stove and poured water on it.

The taste of that coffee is still saved into some neurons in my brain, it was the tastiest coffee I tasted for many many years.
Needless to say I (we) stopped by at least once or twice a week to help her and get treated on her very nice coffee.
She never told us how she made it I just wished I had asked at that time.

Best Scouting wishes from Holland,

Bagheera :pack:

Has anyone tried these tubes for food use? They're certainly cheap enough. I use them for the pastes that I make from natural dyes.

They're laquered inside, someone must surely sell ones primarily intended for food use. Incidentally condensed milk is now sold in squeezy tubes.

Didn't Nalgene once do a little kit of small placcie pots, with a couple of placcie refillable tubes once. I looked on their web page, but there wasn't any. Someone must do them surely?
