Some friends of our have insulated camping type mugs that have a lidded coffee filter that sits on top. 

Does anyone know where I can get these from?  I've tried everywhere I can think of.

I'm not sure if they are for camping specifically or not.

Thanks.

Lucy

ps our friends don't remember where they came from!

Don't know those, but if you don't mind a more cafetiere-style coffee you can sit and infuser/strainer in the cup - camping shops seem to sell these for £11+, but www.cupoftea.uk.com have them for £6.80, or you could buy a Whittard replacement strainer for their teapots for £3, which doesn't have a cute little lid, but sounds like about the right price for something that gets packed for camping.

Lakeland plastics and the range do one that sounds like your friends.

Thanks Pencraig. I've been looking for one of those after seeing (& tasting) one in action a couple of months ago, but for once my googling abilities had deserted me.

I have one (two) of these which we take camping and also use at home. They are great for tea also (use as an ordianry mug) but wash it well first to get rid of coffee aroma.

As for the lidded one, I saw one in Debenhams. It was basically a travel mug with the filter made by Thermos I think. It looked quite snazzy but can't remember how much it cost.

I use the filter 'pods' from M&S. You sit them on top of any mug and fill them with water which trickles through the coffee in the bottom.

The expresso style is especially good

ASDA!! Bodum (I hope that's the correct spelling) glass mugs with holder and a filter on the top. Easy peasy coffee. Any ground coffee and - oops have you got an Uncle Bob? Hope this is what you want.....

We use Rombourts (sp?) single-serve filters and Flej cups as we have milk and sugar and don't want the hassle of a teaspoon. We buy the filters from our local co-op and you can buy Flej cups from www.flejoriginals.com 

Hope this helps.

jaustin, have just used your link to order myself a Flej cup for car/van etc. have in the past bought insulated beakers from various places but could always taste the plastic of the inside of the beaker through the coffee and it spoilt it for me.

thanks for that

These are plastic but I haven't noticed any taste. Did you order the new lidded version? If so, can you tell me if the suck and stir way of stirring works? They didn't have the lid when we got ours and I am wondering whther to get one for in car etc.
