Does anybody use the jetboil kit? Seems like a cool alternative that could fit my needs

Looks like it can only be used to boil water with the included container and can't actually be used as a stove with other pots, pans or containers. Seems very restrictive.

I'd just take my aeropress, a regular one burner stove and whatever pots/pans I was bringing anyway. The aeropress takes 30 seconds to make coffee, so making for multiple people is not really going to take any longer than it takes to boil the same quantity of water in a percolator. The aeropress can also make a decent faux-espresso if you're into them.

Or make cold-brew extract ahead of time and just dump that into hot water as needed.

As much as I like gadgets, Jetboil, in my research, just seems too much like a one trick pony. Proprietary stuff annoys me.
As far as coffee is concerned, I would rather pack a pound of coffee than er... a lot of stuff.
