Hi guys and girls. What do you use to make a nice mug of real coffee. I have been looking around but dont want some heavy metal maker. something like a plastic permanent filter like you get in cheap coffee makers would do but small to fit in a mug. coffee bags are a no, like a good coffee. thanks
Real coffee making

Lyons coffee bags, like tea bags but with real ground coffee. They aren't too bad. But I just prefer kenco millicano.
I mostly drink cowboy coffee on canoe trips, nasty 3in1 for hiking.
The Gsi Dukjug and H2j0 filter makes a cracking brew, quite compact if you carry a 1L bottle anyway. There's a few filters which just stand in the top of your mug, Ortlieb make one I think, there's the Java Drip and a mugmate. The paper cones work okay if you put one decent fold in to hold it's shape better, just stick it in the top of your mug and pour the water through.

Hi there, just try getting a small tea infuser with a fine mesh, add you favourite coffee hang in your cup or Billy and there you go. There is a video called cowboy coffee I think, that's where I got the idea and it works great.
I use one of these... ditched the glass cup though. It makes a grand cup of coffee 
There's one alot cheaper n ebay if you fancy it

Is the top part the filter Steve, can you just put that on top of any pot?
I use one of these daily... in fact I've just made a coffee with it now
You get a small amount of sediment, but literally a fraction. Here's the same one as your link, but £4.80 posted.

Yes... it's in 3 parts
You have the outer with an inbuilt ss mesh filter, you put your coffee there then put the 'trickle' filter in and fill that with hot water and you've got the lid which doubles as a drip tray to put the filter on
