<h3>Coffee</h3>
<p>
We always need instant coffee (and lots of tea-bags). The issue of ground coffee arose during 2017 as personal supplies were raided and the general appreciation of the stuff raised the possibility (in 2018) of providing this as standard expo fare.
<p>While buying coffee beans would be cheaper (<a href="https://www.discountcoffee.co.uk/collections/wholesale-coffee-beans/products/rio-espresso-oro-coffee-beans-4-x-1-kilo">64p/100g</a>), having yet another piece of equipment (a grinder) at the crowded tatty hut would be awkward. Hitting socks full of beans with rocks at top camp would also be amusing when un-ground beans would inevitably get carried up. The tentative conclusion is that Sainsburys Basics ground coffee for filters would be adquate, e.g. "Sainsbury's Fairtrade Continental Style Coffee, Strength 5". A number of strength grades are available all at the same price of £1.01/100g.

<p>In 2019 we brought out lost fo Sainsburys Basics stronga nd medium-strong ground coffe and hardly any instant coffee was drunk: none at base camp.
<h2>In Austria </h2>
<p>In 2019 we tried to source morre food locally but failed completely to find local supplies of milk powder, couscous,
instant porridge, ordinary porridge, instant chocolate drink. Local noodles are the same as UK but twice as expensive.
Instant Chai Milk tea was greatly enjoyed at top camp.
<p>Knorr instant (1-minute - read the label!) soup was good, so we don't need to buy that in the UK.
<h2>Other Food </h2>
<p>Supplies of other food and ingredients, such as dried fruit: sultanas etc. and other flapjack ingredients can be got from specialist online suppliers such as <a href="https://www.buywholefoodsonline.co.uk/meridian">Buy Wholefoods Online</a> or going to <a href="http://www.arjunawholefoods.co.uk/">Arjuna</a> on Mill Road (which has a bulk store off Gwydir Street) or <a href="http://www.dailybreadcambridge.org/">The Daily Bread cooperative</a> in King's Hedges (Cambridge).
