Over the years I've shared a campfire with lots of different folks. But it seams to me the center of every camp I've been in was the coffee pot.
I've drank coffee made from gourmet beans and brewed in $1000.00 coffee makers and I've shared a campfire with cowboys, hunters, hobos, fishermen and campers all across this great land.
The cowboys used a old 3# coffee can with a bail made from bailing wire. Creek water with a handfull of their favorite brand was boiled until pronounced done. A splash cold water to settle the grounds and the cups were filled.
The backpackers used little bity spyder looking stoves to bring the brew to a boil and then it was poured into a french press with the grounds.
The fishermen kept the pot boiling for days on the back of their diesel boat stove. Mighty strong stuff and called boat coffee.
Some thought the best flavor was in the bean, some in the roast, some in the brand, and some in the method but they all had their own prefferences in the pot and its contents.
How about you my friend, Pull up that chunk of firewood and sit here by the fire, and lets hear your opinion on the best cup of joe.......................
