From 0 to Coffee in 3 Minutes Flat: Jetboil Flash Java Kit 3 Year Review
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 04. 2024
- I've been using the Jetboil Flash Java kit on every camping trip I've taken in the last three years. This Jetboil Flash Java Kit review is based on hundreds of nights and mornings in the backcountry. I've made countless cups of camping coffee as well as dehydrated camping meals with this setup and I can say unequivocally that it is one of my favorite and most indispensable pieces of motorcycle camping gear.

The Jetboil Flash Java Kit allows you to make french press coffee while camping, but it can also be used to quickly heat up water for instant coffee and you can go from cold water to hot coffee in just about 3 minutes flat using that method.
Whether you're motorcycle camping, car camping, or just enjoying a quick cup of coffee in the backcountry, the Jetboil Flash (and Java Kit) is a compact, lightweight, self-contained way to heat water as quickly as possible.

I got this same kit as a free gift from my job last year and it was my first jetboil. As a person who grew up camping and waiting for water to boil while you're freezing your butt off in the morning, it's a shockingly impactful quality of life improvement I didn't realize I was missing out on.
If you don’t have enough paper towels to dry the cup. Just throw your pot back onto the burner and run it for like 30 seconds and dry it off like a cast iron pan. Avoid the rust
Adjust the ignitor electrode gap and your ignitor will likely work again.
Yep. It can get bent down a little when you stick it all in the container. If it’s too close it won’t work
Great video! Just received my java kit jet boil from Ben last week and it’s awesome!
I originally got this set up for backpacking a few years back and love that it goes great on adv trips as well !!
Impressive. Hard to let go of white gas tech. Your video might push me over the top!
I've had my JetBoil since about 2008 ish and love it ! The igniter on mine quit early on. Like you I always have multiple lighters, so not a big deal. Jetboil is a keeper. Tried and true. Great product ! Excellent video as well !
I remember one of your friends checked the fire out with his fingers, ouch. Great video Ben and might buy one of those Jet Boils because I do love coffee
Thanks for the note on the loose bolt/screw. It kept me from getting one at that price. Should be made to last at their cost. Appreciate 👍
I tried instant coffee lately. I was shocked how much I liked it... The taste is not on par with real coffee, but it's really close. And it's just so simple and convenient.
I was shocked how far "real" coffee in tea bags have come. New life hack is you can get those motel/hotel coffee maker packets to do the same thing. Since I carry a 22 OZ Contigo everywhere, works perfect.
Superb video. @11:25 Travis finding out that indeed fire burns. 😂
Hope he is doing well since his leg injury and looking forward to the both of you tearing up the trails together again.
He's doing great. He's been riding and everything ;)
@@DorkintheRoad Damn bridges, I almost bit it on the Bridge of the Gods because wet metal is slick.
I need one of those 😮
I went with the Windburner and have been very happy with it. Just got the coffee press widget for it. Haven't used it quite yet.
Thanks Ben for that awesome content I’ve got to get myself one of those jet boils or should I say bespoke jet Boyles thanks for the contact take care
I used one of them when I did my thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail.
I suggest you put the pot on the burner BEFORE opening the gas valve and using the lighter. that will help the spark hit the gas faster.
Also, I cover my pot when boiling water. That also makes water boil faster.
i havent ever used one. Miranda in the wild just did a video of one of these vs a pocket rocket style. she is a backpacker, so the weight made a difference for her depending on how long they were going for. they seem pretty nice to me.
I hate coffee and yet I'm watching this video.
I've had mine since2007-08. It has become an indispensable part of my camping gear. I just came back from a 2 week camping trip in AZ. It was my only cooking source.
Mine is the original. So no bells or whistles.
Gotta have matches and no heat gauge.
Gotta watch it like a hawk.
When you're using a jet boil, that is all you're doing.
I dare you to try do anything else without having a boil-over. 😅
Protip from backpacking friends: the ignitor will bend easily when you stack everything inside it. You can cut out a piece of tp roll cardboard to protect it. That may be your problem lighting. I've never had any issues.
I bring it along on hotel trips to make tea. It's so quick.
I have the same jetboil setup and a hand grinder that is a never leave home piece of kit.
I got the pot thingy that you talk about and had the same issue with hot spots. I am going to try a mini cast iron this summer and see if that helps.
The auto igniters on larger/ two burner propane stoves usually work fine, but on single burner backpacking stoves they just suck. Allegedly, in my own super professional especially anecdotal opinion.
As a coffee lover, I may have to check this thing out!
And after that coffee, when nature calls, you can use the optional bucket and tire as a makeshift toilet that mother earth kindly left behind for you. 😂 Kidding aside, great video Ben. 😊
Dork concerned about a little wobble. …. It’s a brave new world 😂
The ignitor issue is a well known one on this and some the small MSR stoves. Not just you.
you said the "C" word! Hope it makes it thru the censors! Keep up the great vids! Thanks for the info!
Dork i luv coffee and i luv my jetboil
That's funny, sounds like my old Svea 123, probably older than you 😮. Little thing was/is a little beast. Still have it. Better half has the Optimus version. Squirt a little fuel in the depression by the burner, light that , builds a little pressure in the stove, light stove and viola, HEAT! Definitely more exciting.😊
I bought the MiniMo. Hope it works just as well.
I have had a Flash for about 7yrs now and it's going great. My igniter is the same too. Only seems to work every now and then.
Bend the igniter tab a little farther away
I went for a stove where i could control the heat...not sure what i was thinking but in reality I just boil and burn the shit out of everything... mostly water 😂
I just got the new Yeti French Press. I almost bought one of these but that 2 cup limit sucks.
I like mine. I like some coffee with my creamer in the morning. What is your way of carrying creamer?
Im still mulling over buying one. Even after borrowing my buddies for a trip. Tbh just need to pony up, they're a pretty nice product
25% off right now on Motocamp Nerd's site...
@@DorkintheRoad thanks for the heads up!
How many boils do you get out of one file canister?
We swear by these during fire season.
What is the water pouch you're using?
I bought a Firemaple, which I assume is a knock off of the jetboil, probably some IP theft, but the price was right and so far has not failed me.
To funny, ordered one this morning from Ben.
You had me at coffee!!😂
After reading the comments, guess I'm getting old. Does have it's advantages at certain times, .....
I've been looking into the jerboil.. they have them at my local mom and pop sporting goods store and did notice there are 3 different sizes.. second are you loosing weight Ben?
Get back on that 790 no time for coffee!
I just got back from camping on it. You can do both at the same time!
So, if this is your second favourite part of camping, what's your first?
Dark in the road. I think you keep forgetting that. Do not ship to Canada if you can. Mention that be great love the work
That’s great but to be honest when I go moto camping saving vital minutes boiling my water isn’t the highest priority.
I agree it's more of a convenience thing but it's so convenient and compact that I don't see any disadvantage to carrying it over other stove options.
@@DorkintheRoad I agree I wasn’t being negative.
Save fuel. Coffee brews better at about 90C. So super hot but not boiling...probably half "orange" on the jetboil meter. Maybe 3/4 orange. You're welcome. Ha!
0:49 can’t boil water without water… You lost me right right there I’m not sure I’m good at this
Ur losing weight.. still happy?. Always good to feel good
I've always wanted one but don't get to camp often enough to justify the cost
Also, losing weight? Good on ya.
they're 25% off right now ;)
So, no more Sanka or Folgers Crystals? LOL!
When the neoprene gets “funky” just toss it in the washing machine.
It's not titanium it's aluminum
Hey, you didn't point :(
It's just not the same as campfire coffee or tea.
I have the jetboil like you show. It’s great to boil water, but the coffee press is not that impressive. I purchased a Stanley coffee french press for moto camping and never looked back. If I would have done it differently. I’d buy their pot version. Which is my go to.
