Okay, this is a thread I have been hoping for.
I don't drink coffee (but love coffee ice cream and frappicinos). However, my wife is drinking more coffee now, instead of tea. So, I am trying to make a good cup (or 5) for her when we go camping.
I have an aluminum percolator camp pot, but when we used it the first time, many of the grounds fell through. (She brought "fine ground", I found out.) So, my next attempt (heading out Friday for a week) will be to put a filter in the bottom of the coffee holder in the percolator.
Does that work?
Someone commented about using boiling water to pour over the grounds, using a brewing cone. Does that make a good cup of coffee? If it is too weak, do you just add more coffee to the filter the next time? Can you pour coffee over the grounds again, or put fresh grounds into the filter, then pour coffee over them to make stronger coffee?
Thanks for any insight.
