I was the first one to mention coffee when I said:
"If you wanted the extra precision of pre-weighing it at home instead of using a volumetric measurement, buy a box of snack sized zip lock bags and measure out how much you want in each snack sized bag. I have done that with coffee for my french press on some trips."
I appreciate all the suggestions on how to carry coffee, but I put the little snack sized zip lock baggies inside the french press when traveling. Thus, they were well protected from puncture or anything else that could cause coffee ground leakage in my pack. And this way I had one pot of coffee per day on the trip since I counted them out when I bagged them at home. I have only done this on canoe trips where resupply during the trip is impossible.
So, thanks for the input but I got it figured out. Now if I could figure out how to make sure there is no frost in the morning, ... ...
There is one other hazard that did not get mentioned for bag punctures, ... ...
