Impossible as it may seem, some claim that there are actually places on earth where a Starbucks is nowhere to be found. We think this is an urban legend, but there's a new product that lends credence to the theory. Enter French company Handpresso to make sure you never have to go without your caffeine fix -- even if there's no electricity.
Handpresso's Wild is a portable gadget that can make espresso while camping or anywhere else you don't have the luxury of electricity, because it's operated with a hand pump. Unfortunately it does apparently need hot water, so be sure to carry matches unless you happen to be traveling with a boy scout.
The Handpresso Wild is available from the company's site for 99 euros (£74).

You can also make coffee by putting the ground-up beans in a filter in one of those filter-holder thingies and pouring hot water over it.
If you're desperate, you can also mix the water with the coffee grounds. Gets a bit chewy though.
