Snow Peak

Snow Peak Coffee Latte Set

Get your morning Joe in style with this Snow Peak Titanium Set.

Here’s how it went for us:

  • Boil up some water in the Ti French Press, or in a separate container.
  • Toss 3 oz of course ground coffee into the French Press.
  • Stir in the hot water and put the lid on.
  • While waiting about 3-4 minutes for coffee to steep, take the shorter Ti Foamer and fill about 1/3 full with milk.
  • Heat over flame, looking for about 160 degrees, or just when the side gets uncomfortable to the touch.
  • Slowly push the knob down on the French Press, set aside.
  • Take the hot milk, put the lid in place and pump the white knob up and down about twenty or so  times.
  • Now pour about 8 oz of coffee from the press into your double walled Ti Mug.
  • Top with the hot foamy milk from the Foamer.

Voila! Perfect morning Latte! Delicious. Maybe not a full bodied espresso, but just perfect for an eye opener when we roll out of the tent in the AM.

Titanium Cafe Press and Titanium Milk Foamer come in a sleek black nylon carrying case. Weighs 13 oz total. Makes 3 cups of coffee.

Don’t forget your 14 oz (volume) Titanium 450 Coffee Mug (4.2 oz weight). The double-walled construction keeps your drinks warm longer. Get the matching insulated lid for sipping and slosh proofing. Another $55.

$110 the set

Snow Peak SnowMiner Headlamp

Snow Peak SnowMiner Headlamp

More than just a headlamp, the SnowMiner allows you to pop out it’s silicon globe to provide extreme diffuse lighting. And it also allows you to slap a large glowing snowball on your forehead. We found it to be just the thing to fill our tent with warm ambient light and it provides an excellent page-filling reading light.

This powerful LED headlamp will stream out 80 lumens of light at full power for 55 hours. We used the low setting in the tent, which was more than enough for close-in work and reading and from the literature found that this produces 8 lumens that will last for 140 hours. We couldn’t run it out or dim it. And as a blinking beacon it will run 250 hours.

The snowball setting is also great when we tried it on a dark trail. With a broad beam, it lit up a large area instead of a focused beam with shadows. Which made it easy to pick out the trail and miss obstacles.

Runs on 3 AAA batteries, which you can always use with rechargeables. Dimensions 2.2 x 2 inches (5.6x 5.1cm). Weighs 3.5 oz (100grams) with batteries.

A small red led lets you know when your battery power is low. The strap adjustment included a hook for hanging it as a lamp at the campsite.

$56

The sacred Hozuki plant was the original design for the ancient Chinese paper lantern. Snow Peak adapted this design to capture the beauty and romance of the Chinese paper lantern.

The new Hozuki Lantern combines functionality and beauty like never before in outdoor lighting. Now, you can create the romance of a candle without burning down your tent.

The Hozuki Lantern features an innovative Candle Mode that allows the LED to respond to sound or wind with a flicker of light; press the on/off button twice to enter candle mode. In addition, the Hozuki has three different brightness settings allowing you to light up your favorite book before going to bed or the entire campsite while cooking your dinner. 

$90
