[quote=Jimshaw]In my quest for the lightest cross country ski coffee maker, I have a new set up. A Vargo triad 1 oz stove, an Evernew mug (actually very old), a piece of windbreak, a ti spoon, and a lid from a ti pan to set it on, total 4.5 oz.

I have a pretty similar setup:
- Fancy Feast cat can stove (0.3oz)
- SP 600 (2.8oz)
- Homemade windscreen (0.5oz)
- Foil lid for the pot (0.3oz)
- Folding Ti Spork (0.4oz)
- Mini bic (0.4oz)
- Bandana (saves burning my hands) (0.3oz)
- 8 fluid oz fuel bottle (1oz)
Total = 6oz

I use a bigger mug because I also use it to cook in (holds just over 2cups of water). If I was just using it for coffee (no cooking) then I would switch to my MSR TI mug at 1.9oz, which would bring the total weight down to 5.1oz.

Just by switching out your Vargo stove to a fancy feast would bring your coffee system to under 4oz and only cost you a $1. If you really want to lighten up then change out your mug for a BPL trappers mug at 1.3oz and that should save you another 1.1oz. You could easily get the whole system under 3oz.
