We have always been old-fashioned Melitta Manual Drip when boondocking, simple and makes good coffee:
Then we saw this Contour coffee maker a few years ago and decided to give it a try. Mounts under the cabinet by the stove, so it's out of the way when not in use. The thermal carafe keeps coffee hot well into the afternoon and it stores in the set when underway, no nothing to pack away:

Oh well, that's progress I guess....
