If you want a strong but good cup of coffee try the Italian "Moka Express".
The mechanism is simple: The aluminum pot utilizes pressure to force steam to build up inside the lower section, forcing the surrounding boiling water up the funnel through the coffee grounds and into the upper chamber.
The end result: elevated heart rate.

Here in Aus we have an awesome instant coffee which is the closest I have ever had to having an instant espresso out bush while hiking. It's called Nescafe Short Black and it is really, really good if you're a coffee snob like me.
There's also a very cool product which allows me to enjoy Illy out in the scrub as well. It's a coffee mug with a built in plunger called "Smart Cafe".
Just make sure you don't hand in your "Man Card" by buying a red one like in the picture - the gunmetal grey one is the go.  But then again, real men don't use mugs, they drink their coffee out of a muddy footprint on the trail. Just like a coffee plunger, these Smart Cafe things are great for tea leaves or voodoo herbal infusions.

Wow, I haven't checked in on this thread in a while...guess I stirred the passion of the caffiene-addicted masses  . Great advice/info. I just bought some of Starbucks new instant coffee (can't remember the name?). Gonna try that out when I go camping in the next month or so. Although, the picture on the Nestle shortblack does look tasty!!!???

Try cold brewing, i like it cause its easy and dosent have any bitter taste.
Step 1: select appropriate shatter resistant container.
This one would work fine, but is a little bulky for trail trips.
Step 2: Fill with water. No need to heat, just find some potable water source.
Step 3: Add ground coffee.
Step 4: Wait a day.
Step 5: filter.
Step 6: Enjoy.
Seriously though, give it a try you might really like the taste. I always have a container going so the next day i'll have tasty coffee just waiting for me. Also the longer you let it sit around the more punch you get.
