So, just to set the record straight, I drink what Juan Valdez drinks....Black Coffee, strong, no sugar My wife, however, that is a different story. She needs a Soy Cappuccino in the morning. We don't usually hook up to 110v so having a regular Cappuccino maker is not a good option. We've been using this thing called a Mukka Express from France that boils water, forces it up through some espresso grind coffee, through some kind of a devise that "pops" and foams the soymilk in the top. It is OK, but the biggest problem we have with it is the lack of consistency. So, my idea of perfect would be something that can work off the stove top. A small 110v cappuccino maker could be an option if I set up some kind of inverter, but my biggest problem with that is there is very little room for luxuries like that in our trailer as it is a 24' (tongue to bumper) bumper pull.Thanks!

Are you saying the Mukka you have now works on the stovetop and you want one that functions via electricity OR you want a different stovetop version? Sorry, I prolly haven't had enough tea yet.

Good for you :) in your attempt to prepare the perfect cup of coffee without flipping on a noisy generator. Many people have indicated that they simply turn on their generator to create the same coffee experience as at home - while dry camping.

I use a Moka pot, or Italian bealetti pot every morning while camping. It's great, set it up the night before and set it on the lit stove in the morning. No means of frothing the milk though.That's for me though. Honey likes the 120v drip pot that we run off of the inverter.

Ok so I just looked up Mukka vs Moka and they are both Bealetti pots. The only real differences between the two I use and the Mukka pot I saw on you tube was that it had a locking lid. My 6 cup has a normal lid and the mini delivers directly into the cup. With the mini you could add milk to the cup and it is pretty consistent.

With the mini you could add milk to the cup and it is pretty consistent. I have one of those, but never knew what it was called. When the coffee starts pouring out of that "spigot", it splashes around, and makes a heck of a noise. Then I wipe the spilled coffee off the stove top. We have had it since our first popup TC.I use it occasionally, and laugh every time I use it. Sometimes it really is the little things......
