I got an Alpkit Mytimug titanium cup for Father's day last year, after much hinting that I wanted a cup that would fit around a Nalgene or Guyot bottle.
While it's a very good, lightweight cup, I didn't like the fact that it didn't have a tight fitting lid like my insulated plastic mug.
I was in Tamarack last week, and I noticed that the Jetboil coffee press ( http://shop.jetboil.com/index.php/coffee-press.html ) looked as though it would fit nicely inside the Mytimug. I compared it to a mug of similar size that also fitted around a Nalgene bottle, and bought it on on the strength of that, although Tony did say that I could send it back if it didn't fit.
When I got home, I found that it was a very good fit in the Mytimug, but I realised that the stem was a bit long for the mug, and I didn't have a lid for it. After an internet search, I found out that Needlesports ( only twenty minutes away from me ) also sold Jetboil accessories, and I bought a PCS lid from there ( http://shop.jetboil.com/index.php/spare-parts-group/pcs-1-0-liter-cup-spare-parts.html ). This turned out to give an excellent seal on my mug.
Here's the full kit:
I had to shorten the stem ( I used this system for the first time this weekend, and without the shortened stem, it was awkward to drink from ), but apart from that it was if the seperate parts were made were made for each other.
Cheers, Michael.
