- I have learned a lot over the years from mentors, books and experience. I had mentors in real life but my book writing, video making mentor was Mors Kochanski. His recent passing has left a hole in the Bushcraft community. I'm this video I honor him and his achievements.
One of the biggest reasons I enjoy learning from you Dave is because you have a humble heart and it's hard to fake a humble heart. I respect you giving credit to your mentor the late great Mors Kochanski. I commend your dedication to him.
The bushcraft community are learning Mors techniques and your many skills and techniques through your dedication and love of buschcrafting. I for one and my household appreciate you and Nick for taking the time to share your knowledge.
This video is a heartfelt dedication to Mors. I know he is smiling upon you both from heaven.
Here's to Mors, may his bushcraft coffee forever flow in rivers of heaven 🍮
Thank you Dave,
& Nick.
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you and yes, I'm very humbled by my mentors. I figure the least I can do is honor Mors and make sure he's not forgotten. We are lucky he's on so many videos. Take care and thanks for watching
Your welcome Dave.
RIP Mors Kochanski. 💙
Hear Hear. Could not have said it better.
I've already seen people price hiking his book that's been last time I have seen about 5 years ago or more that's there was over 1.5 million copies at $18.95
This person from Amazon is doing price hiking be aware of fake people

@@cgriggsiv Thanks for the update
Great reminders of a great man.
Thank you Lonnie!
Coffee is the best part of the life. I do camp coffee over my fire pit and the neighbors just start coming by and asking me if it is my bushcraft coffee. Before it's done I average two to four people in my backyard having what they say is the "best damn coffee they ever had" every time I fire up the pit. When asked where I got the idea to make coffee that way I always credit Mr. Kochanski.
Fantastic to hear that Charles!
Mors not only loved nature and the art of bushcraft he had true bushcraft skills and he truly enjoyed sharing his vast knowledge with people who wanted to learn. Now more than ever people are rediscovering the bushcraft ways because of men like Mors, and with his passing The torch is being passed to men like you Dave who will carry on learning and sharing the art of Bushcraft so it's never lost.
Well said and hopefully the Bushcraft torch will burn forever. Thanks for watching
He left quite an impact wherever he went. Pretty sure he was the one who introduced me to flint and steel and charcloth. I was living in Alberta and was in elementary school back in the 70s and we had a student teacher bring in her outdoor Ed instr from university to teach the kids a bit about wilderness survival. I remember a kind bearded man who wore that Scottish cap with the pom pom on it. Years later I bought Bushcraft and found some old videos on UA-cam. Can't say for certain it was him but the timeframe frame, skills taught, area I lived, university Outdoor Ed instr and that cap I am pretty sure it was him and surprised that memory of Bushcraft introduction has stuck around that long.
Proof that teaching a child outdoor skills makes a difference.
That absolutely sounded like him! He wore the hat, lived in Alberta and since he taught university programs I could see him teaching at other schools. Thanks for sharing that!
Thank you for remembering Mors. His legacy will be carried on for generations. Merry Christmas!
Gone but never forgotten! I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching Michael
@@Reallybigmonkey1 brother. Im very glad your video popped up. I did not know mors had passed away .ive prob seen most of his videos. He was very amazing man. I can only dream to know a quarter of the things he so freely shared with us all
You may not realize this but you are a mentor to all of us. I'm an old fart and have been bush crafting for a long time. Back in the late eighties or early nineties, after the fire department, and the military I began searching for ways to truly live off the land ( strangely enough I had ever put it in my high school year book, but never remembered), after a bitter divorce, it was a way of coping I believe? I bought two books by Tom Brown ,field guide to wilderness survival, and one on tracking. Both I learned a lot from, even though I'd been hunting since fourteen years old. He also taught special forces like Mors. I learned and practiced a lot. I worked in the antique trade and my time was flexible. My mother bought me a book called " how to shit in the woods ", and I learned from that too, and laughed of course. After a lifetime of learning how not to die in the worst conditions, I finally joined the rest of the people in the 21st century. I was amazed at all of the inventions involved in bushcraft that would've made my life much easier or more comfortable. I knew how to make bush coffee, but not exactly the same. I used and prefer a French press for the same reasons that make bush coffees so good. All the grounds saturated with all the water. Never heard of brown sugar and condensed milk but it sounds good. Never heard that egg shell thing either, the only time I ever heard of egg shells and coffee was to add to our mulch pile when I was a kid. I thought it was there just to assist the worms in breaking up that god awful red clay. Ive only actually made mountain coffee a few times, and all we added was moonshine. As I said in the beginning, you're all of ours, mentor. I haven't watched a single video you've done without learning. A lot I'll never get to try, and Florida is a completely different environment. I've been here since 85 ' , I came with the military out of nine inches of snow and nine degrees, and a few hours later to ninety six degrees with palm trees swaying. I walked straight to the payphone and called my folks, " mom , dad, I'm never coming back ". The older I get, the dumber I get. When I was sixteen I knew it all, but get dumber all the time. I realize that there is no end to what you can learn, what will be the next greatest invention do to help make bush crafting just a bit of a tweak to enrich our experience. Brother Dave, you do these things, create these things, like cooking systems etc., Mors has passed the torch to you and I cannot imagine a better man to entrust it to.
Thank you for your comments and thank you for your trust in me Joe!
Thanks Dave and Nick.
Mors not only has our respect for getting out there and testing and improving bushcraft techniques for 40+ years, he also had a love and enthusiasm for his family, children and us.
I came to the game late, but by his videos and books, his wisdom, is available to us forever.
Thank you Mors. Thank you Dave.
Find the Paul Kirtley interview of Mors this year to get a feel for the respect and experience Mors brought us all.
Mors has absolutely done more for bushcraft than anyone in modern times. I've seen that interview and it was a good one. Take care and thanks for watching Stephen
I was listening to Johnny Cash, sipping rum, and studying Mors diagrams in his book
on Christmas Eve. The detail and common sense was so profound.
Lots of great tips as usual Dave... and a great tribute to a great Man. He will be missed.
Sounds like the perfect Christmas Eve Brother! I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
Sorry to hear of his passing. Thank you for this great video and all the information on Mors.
We lost a true icon Ken. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
Don't sell yourself short Dave... You are a leader in teaching and advancing the craft of outdoor enjoyment and living. Mors would be proud of your innovation and loyalty to the proven ways. The world needs more folks like you... Life ain't no beauty contest.
Thank you so much Brother!
I know I am older .... but this is the way my Aunt taught me to make coffee from day one! Makes the BEST coffee ever! Bless you for your Tribute to Mors Kochanski. Wonderful memories. RIP Mors.
Very cool to hear that! I'm happy you liked the video, thanks for watching
Dave, you’re a very humble and very intelligent man, you too are a great mentor to many who watch you ,through your successes and failures we all learn. A very touching tribute to a good man
Thank you so much my friend!
That man had so much knowledge in his head it's astounding ... Very educated . And yes loved it .. very hard loss to our community ... Hey Nick . Amen ..
Not only was he a Bushcraft mentor but, I honestly thought he was one of the most intelligent men alive. Thanks for watching Brother Tom.
Thank you so much for the wonderful reminders of how deeply Mors impacted the outdoor world. He may be gone but his teachings will last forever in our hearts.
You are very welcome and yes, Mors memory will last forever!
@@Reallybigmonkey1 👍
Great tribute to a man who showed us ways to survive in the outdoors RIP Mors you will be missed
Amen and I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
A beautiful reminder and a great way to celebrate Mors’s life. Thank you for a beautiful tribute to his life. My sincerest condolences are sent to you, and anyone who’s life was touched by this amazing man. May his family & friends find comfort in all the people who’s lives he’s touched & the way in which we all respect him & his teachings. Much love 💕
Thank you Sheila, I'm glad you liked it. He gone but hopefully never forgotten. Thanks for watching
Like the old saying "Often imitated, never duplicated". He was certainly one of a kind.
Absolutely!
Great way to remember Mors, a great Canadian teacher of bush craft in the Boreal forest...made many contributions to those who love the great outdoors. Mike in Nova Scotia.
Mors was a one of a kind true treasure. I was happy to honor him!
Thank you for the tribute to Mors Kochanski. He was a great bushcraft trainer. As a young man working and camping in Alberta Canada I read many of his specific topic booklets and his book Northern Bush Craft. It established the foundation of my understanding of bushcraft in the Northern forests of Canada. I enjoyed passing this knowledge on to my boys and to the Scout troops I had the privilege to lead and support.
I want to thank you for your videos. I appreciate your effort to pass your knowledge on to others and to me. Cheers and a God bless.
You are very welcome and I'm happy you liked it Mark. Mors was a true master of the Boreal forest. I'd love some coffee time. Thanks for watching and may God bless you.
My deepest condolences on the loss of Mors. Thank you for sharing his method of making bush coffee. By doing so you keep his memory alive. Mors will no doubt be with you always. ❤
Thank you my friend. Mors methods will always live on my camp outs. Thanks for watching
@@Reallybigmonkey1 ❤
The best coffee, and a fitting tribute, may his teachings live on forever. Great job Dave, thanks 💖
Thanks Mike, I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
THANKS for such a wonderful and thoughtful tribute to Mors! I always enjoyed his videos and books. A wonderful, thoughtful and of the all time knowledgeable bushcrafters! We ALL will miss him and his knowledge yet profit from his sharing... THANKS once again! .
Thanks Kenn, I'm glad you liked it. Yep, we will all miss Mors greatly. Thanks for watching
Mors and Roycroft will be highly missed in the bushcraft community.
Thank you Dave for doing a tribute to Mors.
Love your channel, please keep making your videos.
Amen Justin, I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and lots more to come
Thank you for this video...Rest in Peace Morse. I'm headed to the Bush in about 3 days. Will definatly make coffee
I'm glad you liked it. Enjoy the coffee! Thanks for watching
I remember that episode of “Duel Survivor” about the “Super Shelter;” first time I ever saw such it. It was amazing to see just how effective it was. Gee Dave, how Nick has grown. Nice to see father and son videos.
Yep, I believe thats when the super shelter concept was brought out to the masses that had never seen it. Nicks bigger than me now! Thanks for watching
I didn't know who Kochanski was until last year. I had bought a TB tracker and then found a book by Tom Brown. Mors has influence a lot of great bush-crafters out there ( Men & Women). What a great man. The humbleness is one element which adds to the greatness in us all. Dave here has a few tricks of his own which he passes on from other sources (some are his own). I am sure I can speak for many when I say we would all like to emulate great men like Mors, and Dave. My scout masters were not as inventive as these guys, they taught me quality of being genuine. Everyone makes mistakes, everyone has faults. I try to let people see the real me and I can see the human in others because of this. Rest in Peace Mors and thank you Dave for the tribute.
Very well said Stegmon and thank you! I'm glad you liked the video, Thanks for watching
Great tribute to a modern day pioneer. Well done Dave and Nick.
Making coffee the Mors' way was a great way to honour him.
Mors had a wealth of knowledge and the practical experiences
which he enjoyed sharing with everyone through his many stories.
Sad to hear of his passing, but what a life well lived.
RIP Mors
Thanks Ray, we are happy you liked it. There will be no replacing Mors, he was a one of a kind. Thanks for watching
I don’t know why, but I picture Mors Kochsnski, John Muir and Fred Bear all sitting around a fire in a heavenly wilderness, enjoying a steaming cup of Mors’ coffee and exchanging stories...
That's a fantastic thought Charles!
Great tribute to THE outdoor survival legend!
Thank you Laura!
RIP...Mors kowchanski 👍Thank you Dave this is a fine tribute to a good and inspiring man.”🕊
Amen and Thanks for watching Pat
God speed Mors. He was one of the greatest outdoors instructors ever. Keep up the good work brother.
Amen Brother! Thanks for watching James
I was very fortunate to have taken the last course he taught at Karamat Survival in Alberta this past summer. The man was a legend and filled with so much knowledge on so many topics. He will be missed by many.
You are one lucky man Brad. What you experienced will never happen again. Thanks for watching
@@Reallybigmonkey1 Thanks for all the great videos. Keep em coming!
Lots more to come Brad!
When I thought I know everything about making coffee
it stopped boiling and started steaming. Then while my brain is still processing the fresh water trick works and I'm like "WWHHAATT is happening?
I gotta make some Mors coffee next time I'm outdoors
Lol, I thought the same thing first time I saw this method. Follow it exactly and you'll get perfect coffee every time
Thanks for doing that guys. When I first discovered UA-cam, I was glued to my phone for hours watching this incredible teacher. I was amazed there were actually people doing videos on camping and bushcraft skills! I probably found you through watching Mors' videos. I'm so happy his teachings will be around for us to refresh our memories, and to just hang out with him around the fire for a while.
R.I.P. Mors, and thanks Dave and Nick for introducing Mors to some new people who maybe didn't know him!!! 🇨🇦🔥☕️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm glad you liked it and glad you liked Mors! He will be missed greatly. Thanks for watching Chris
I learnt bow shooting from a man named Smokey. This is going back to the late 80`s. New Jersey had an incredible deer population back then. I was a bowhunter then, still shoot the stick bow. I can attest to the incredible knowledge that is lost to the people of today. Smokey always wore a Smokey the Bear hat. Funny as all get out. He taught us how to make arrow points from broken Coke bottles. I hope you give us more of your knowledge. Always a pleasure watching. Thanks.
Very cool! Older experienced folks like Smokey are slowly disappearing due to the way society is. We have to learn when we can.
I remember reading his articles in Wilderness Arts magazine as a kid, and it inspired me very much. my dad and I used to use a lot of his ideas when we spent time in the woods. he was a great man, and a great teacher. thank you for honoring him.
Thats very cool to hear! I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
I still have a nice collection of those magazines. Treasures. Cheers
RIP Mors Kochanski
And on Saturday: Coffee in the wood.
Amen Brother
Good tribute to Mors. Took a summer course with him in 2015 and can say he is one heck of a bushman, am glad to have met him.
Thanks and that's fantastic you got to learn from him!
A wonderful tribute to Mors and his teachings from two great guys who are doing a great job of teaching outdoor skills in a fun and entertaining way. You guys are the best. Thank you.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it and how we do things!
Great memorial to an amazing bush crafter and man whom will be missed!!!
Thank you Micheal! Yes, he's absolutely gonna be missed
I personally use Death Wish coffee when I'm camping
Great video. The sharing of functional knowledge is indispensable.
Thanks Eddie, I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
Another Great Video.
I remember watching him make a knife with a old saw blade and a broken hockey stick and some hand tools. Simple , functional knife, could get the job done.
I also remember some videos where he would rattle off a string of stuff to carry , and
their uses, how to stow them for future use , always ready. He talked about how to cut yourself from a small aircraft . Loved his videos. Thanks Again. Great Tribute......
I recognize everything you said, I loved his attitude, skills and videos. Take care and thanks for watching
Very nice tribute Mors was sitting next to a fire enjoying a cup of bush coffee with you sadly missed but not forgotten 🙏👍☕️
Amen Donald
Thanks for a fitting Memorial!
Thanks Jim, we are glad you liked it.
RIP mors, good job young fella
Amen and I'm glad you liked it Ken
Bless you, Dave. Don't ever abandon humility OR your delightful sense of humor. They will serve you well should all else seem to be fallen to greed and stardom. You can always find your Soul at the foot of an old Oak tree.
Thank you Don! I plan on never changing! Thanks for watching brother
A great man paying tribute to another great man rest in peace mors, your contribution to bushcraft and survival will live on and continue to teach generations. Thanks brother for this video
Thanks Dj, I'm glad you liked it and what all I do! Thanks for watching Brother
I have only begun to truly appreciate coffee in my old age now that the brain gets foggy! Thanks for this video, not only was it informative but you presented it in a very interesting way, just like all your videos! Have a super new year Dave!
Thanks David! I'm happy you liked it. Amazing how as we get older we love coffee more and more! Happy New year brother
Excellent memorial to a great bushcrafter. Wish I was there.
Thank you Brother Jim. I'd share coffee with you anytime.
Thank You Dave, for honoring a man of greatness. He certainly had a vast amount of wisdom knowledge and gifted it to those who were wanting to know more about survival techniques. We are fortunate to have access to his skills and thoughts through his videos and his writings. Generations will continue to be blessed by his work. Well done!
Thanks Karen, I'm glad you liked it. Without a doubt, he was a man of sharing with all who was willing to learn. Thanks for watching
Nothing better than a good cup of coffee on a cool day in the woods. Wake up and get your day started right. God Bless.
Absolutely! God bless you too Bill

Wonderful tribute. Mors was a mentor to the masses. Nobody like him and he’s certainly going to be missed. We’re blessed he left his teachings behind. RIP, Mors.
Thanks Marjie, I'm glad you liked it. Theres no replacing him. Thanks for watching
This is the same way coffee is made in most Arab countries. The first time I had it was in Ethiopia. At the time I didn’t know the the grounds were poured into the cup too. Found out when I took that last sip. Two differences. The grind is a course powder not as fine as espresso grind but much finer than regular ground coffee and no cold water is added to the hot coffee to settle the grinds. I like Turkish coffee so much I have two pots a single size and company size. About evaporated milk. As a child that is all we ever used. Moms in New Orleans gave their kids coffeemilk which is half evaporated milk and half strong coffee and chicory. In fact my very first flavor memory is coffeemilk.
Thanks for the info Pete! Ive had Community coffee with chicory before and loved it.
There will never be another Mors. There will never be another Dave!
Glad you decided to share your passion with us!
Thanks! I'm always happy to share, thanks for watching
Thank you for NOT putting egg shells in your coffee. Mors was my hero. Great tribute to great bushcrafter!
We are an Eggshell free zone! Thanks for watching David
well i dint really have any mentors till i came to youtube dave . so i guess i would have to say it is you buddy . i have learned alot from you already buddy in the last 4 years . hope to learn a lot more . hope you and your family had a wonderful christmas and here is to a great new decade of fun and adventures .
Thank you brother! We had a good Christmas and I hope you have a happy new year too!
@@Reallybigmonkey1 thanks dave .
Nice to have coffee with both of you... In Mors Memory forever!!! Happy New Year
Thanks Sandy and a Happy New year to you too!
Hello Dave and nick This is R B . I learned many tricks of the trade from Mors and you. I make my coffee everyday exactly the same way only in a canteen cup. But instead of the cold water pouring what I do is tap my cup on a flat surface several times to drop the grounds to the bottom this works really good for me it keeps my coffee nice and hot. Thank you for all the wonderful videos And R I P Mors you will never be forgotten.
Hello RB! Great to hear that. I can see that working for a canteen cup. For a pot this size it would take some serious beating! Lol. Thanks for watching
Mors was a great Canadian and a great human being. He will be missed.
I agree 100%!
I have learned a lot from watching your videos, and at you recommendation I will be getting his book and reading it. Thank you for sharing.
Great to hear that David!
Dave, what an amazing tribute to one of the greatest mentors....thank you for all you have shared, contributed and inspired....keep up the great videos.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching
Thanks for doing a video on Mors Kochanski.. He will truly be missed. I learned a lot for Him ,Think we all have in the outdoor community .
You're very welcome John, I know we will all miss Mors greatly. Thanks for watching brother
Nice, great job giving credit to Mors, and the best way to do that is with your son! And Mors will live on for another generation! Nick will carry on your memory on too, and who knows, pass it on to his children (someday)! This video made me miss my dad, who has been gone for over 10 years, but I still miss him and the things he taught & showed us. He was my scout master when I was young, and I am so thankful for his outdoor skills. Thanks so much for this post! God bless you & Nick!
Thanks Earl! We are glad you liked it and yes, it would be great for Nick to carry this stuff onto a younger generation. I'm sorry your dad is gone but that's very cool he was your scout master. Thanks for watching and may God bless you too
Thank you for the tribute to him, and God bless.
You are very welcome and thanks for watching Doug
An encyclopedia of knowledge mors kochanski was his teachings and legacy lives on RIP sir
Amen brother
We stand on the shoulders of our mentors and it's important to me that we share what we learn and teach the next generation. God bless Mors and God bless you Dave.
Well said Brother, and may God bless you too!
Much respect to you Dave on the video, I have watched your channel for quite some time and heard you mention Mr. Kochanski often , Thank you for all you have shown us as well and your contributions to the outdoor community with your knowledge of the " fun in the woods " . RIP Mors
Thanks John, I'm glad you liked it and my channel! Thanks for watching
A very fitting tribute to Mors. I had no idea that he was the inspiration and foundation of what I call the modern movement of outdoor living. It's so easy to see, not only in your vids, but in all the vids put out by others the influence the man had. You also paid tribute to your own mentors and the influence they had and that is important. Once, awhile back you posted a Q asking us who are our influences. I replied that you Dave are my influence. Not blowing smoke, but I have learned much from following you all these years. Often times I have found myself in a situation and I asked what would Dave do? And more often than not it was something you showed that saved the day. Such is the level of influence you have on me.
Thank you for all the entertaining and informative vids!
Thank you my friend. Mors absolutely influenced a lot of folks. If I can influence others to get outdoors it's a huge honor! Take care and thanks for watching my friend
@@Reallybigmonkey1 Dave, I really had to think about this and try to keep it in context of not only your intent but also from my own feelings. So here it goes: First, we all have our own influences, sometimes many influences on what we do and how we use it. And, yes those need to be honored and given all due credit. Mors was certainly one of those so good job on your part. To be honest, I think you were the only one to give him any credit. Also, you do give credit to your own influences which in turn have become my influences. That is how it works. Learn, do, pass it on.
So that brings me to you. You embody all that. You bring everything together and in your own way pass it along and give your own take on things. Do we see eye to eye on things? Nope. Mainly because I don't have the same access that you do. But we do share somethings.
We both share that get out there and do it mentality. We both have that does it work mentality. If not, how can we make it work mentality. That's why I have the "What Would Dave Do" mentality. Make it work. That's what we do.
R.I.P. Mors Kochanski!
One great guy went off.
Hope he enjoys the eternal hunting grounds now.
Amen
Hey RBM: Thanks for the tribute to Mors Kochanski, he & I are of a similar age . & thankfully his books & videos are still carrying his word. Funny his efforts are appreciated In Northern Alberta ,Southern Ontario & the Carolinas as well. Thanks again Brian 79
You are very welcome Brian and I'm happy you liked it! Mors was one amazing man!
I didn't know Mors passed away. A true Legend. I wish I had got to meet him. I would imagine his knowledge and teaching saved many lives. Enjoyed the video but saddened that we lost Mors.
It's a sad day losing Mors. He will never be replaced. Thanks for watching Scott
Thank you for the tribute to him, Dave. You are my mentor from the first of your videos. (sorry for my bad english) Thank you very much and kind regards from Cologne, Germany.
your english is great. when one speaks from the heart, it's understood.

Nothing like coffee on the fire. Mors was to humble. Many modern large channels let you assume they came up with techniques that were his. Really appreciate how you try to bring awareness to this Dave. I'm planning on doing a camp out soon and trying to do a super shelter as close to correct as possible in his memory. Hope you and Nick and your family had a Merry Christmas and have a happy New year buddy !!!
Absolutely brother. A lot off folks invent ideas and methods but none have been as far reaching as Mors ideas. He always have credit where it was due when it wasn't his idea. We had a great Christmas and looking forward to a happy 2020! Take care and thanks for watching
Thanks, Dave. It was really nice of you to make this fitting tribute to Mors. We will all miss him. I think his influence reached millions of Scouts, bushcrafters, preppers, and campers. Whether in person or through his books and other media outlets (even his UA-cam channel) he has mentored the mentors of today's mentors. He is probably the last of the titans of woodsmanship to take his place in the pantheon alongside Horace Kephart, George Washington Sears (Nessmuk), et al. I raise my glass to Mors Kochansky.
You seem to confuse the drip coffee method with the percolator method. True, in both cases fluid percolates through the grounds, but it is the drip method in which it only does so once. In the percolator method, it boils up and drips through over and over again. Personally, I prefer the French press method, or something like it, which allows the grounds to steep for some time but doesn't require one to "bruise the delicate oils" with boiling water [ideal temp. = 190-200°F (88-96°C)]. Since I don't like diluted milk, wouldn't think of thinning out delicious cream, and love the unadulterated taste of coffee, I never pollute my coffee with creamers or sweeteners, except when I want a drink for desert and have an Irish coffee (½-1 tsp. brown sugar in a wine goblet, ½ oz. Kahlua, 1 oz. premium Irish whiskey. Stir it. Add about 5 oz. coffee and immediately float a good cover of whipped cream on top to trap the spirits.
Garnish with a sprinkle of turbinado sugar or granulated honey. Here's to Mors Kochansky.
Thanks Craig, I'm glad you liked it. Youre probably right, its gotta be in the millions that his work has reached over his lifetime. I did mean to say auto drip. Thanks for watching
Nice of you to pay tribute to Mors, one of the greatest people who ever lived and definitely the greatest bushcrafter!
We are happy you liked it Elaine!
Dave, So glad you made this video. Sadly, we take those we look up to for granted. Mors was, and forever will be, a legend to all of us in the Bushcraft community. Let us who are older, point the younger generation to Mors book’s and resources to enrich their knowledge of Bushcraft just as he did ours, always passing on the tribal knowledge in this craft. May God bless Mors and may Mors Rest In Peace.

I'm happy you liked it Stephen. I'm sad Mors is gone but I love sharing the word of him so others can still learn from him. Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching Brother
When I was about 14 my Dad took me hunting with some of the men that worked out in the shop. They had a kitchen set up under a tent & I vividly remember the coffee. It was cowboy and amazing. It was also made from 132 lbs. of Brazilian (Santos) bags that were landed in Jax. but destined for Mia, Phil, NY, or NOLA (LOL). All of the stevedores did the same thing and no one ever complained with the exception of the coffee importers. The beans were then taken to a local roaster where it was roasted, ground and bagged in little brown paper sacks. This was back in the mid 60's & continued for many years until coffee started coming in super sacks. To this day you cannot buy coffee that good. I don't know who Moro was, but he was definitely born again.
buck shot that would be nice👍Mors made the most amazing coffee ☕️ like to enjoy a cup or two with a good and inspiring man Mr.Mors Kochanski.🕊
Thank you for sharing that story! I love hearing stuff like that
Morris was the great teacher. His knowledge will live with me till the end.
Hopefully his teachings will last forever
I have a trendy coffee machine and coffee bean grinder but I make "Mors coffee" on the stove top every morning this way now. No bitterness, no grounds and it's smooth and chocolatey. And that's with any coffee, in fact the cheaper the better. The only thing I use the trendy coffee machine for now is to heat the milk with the steamer facility so basically it's redundant. I'm now hoping the trendy coffee machine can be sold.
God bless Mors, I'm sure he'll be enjoying the Great boreal forest in the sky.
My thanks to both you and Nick brother.
Fantastic to hear that! And I never really thought about it but your description of chocolatey is a dead on description! Mors is highly missed. Take care and thanks for watching
Great video Dave my friend. I grind my beans and make campfire coffee like that in my Mors’ bush pot every morning. God bless you both. I hope you have a great new year. John

You hit a few nails on the head in this video... Mors didn't do it for the money he just loved teaching.... The man(Mors) was a walking encyclopedia ... And most accurate one ... There will never be another one like Mors.... Thank you very much for a great tribute video to a great man, RIP Mors . Here's what I'm about to ... I'm going to the store buy a bag of coffee, find me a pot , go to the back yard in Brooklyn , N,Y. Carve me a set up like you did and make me some of that bush coffee inspired by Mors and now you.
Very well said! And I hope you enjoy making the coffee and drinking it! Thanks for watching
great tribute. you’re my vid mentor because you laugh. happy new year. 🎊
Thank you Rin and a Happy New year to you too!
I hope you and Nick had a great Christmas.
We did! I hope yours was happy
Reallybigmonkey1 Excellent information. I love my Mora Eldris......
Well that is THE method I was shown as a tweenager. but we just waited for the change in the grounds, like when they sink and die down, then the drizzle-fizzle. Perfect coffee every time. This clip reminded of of the days of way back, thanks!
Fantastic to hear that my friend!
God bless Mors Kochanski, thankfully his knowledge and wisdom is available to us all via internet and books.
Amen, he is greatly missed
RIP Mors. You will be missed. Hey Dave! good to see ya. I like to see you give so much credit to mors. Giving credit to others is being a real stand up guy. Your coffee made me make some coffee, lol. Hope ya'll had a great Christmas, What did you get? I got a big sloppy kiss from Diva. Diva is my dog, lol. God bless . 07.
Great to hear from ya and I'm glad you liked it. Mors was a great man and I want folks to know about him. I got dry bags for my Kayak, a new parang and a Mora Garberg so it was a good Christmas! Thanks for watching and may God bless you too!
Great video idea! For some dumb reason, when I went out last Saturday to shoot my little tribute to Mors, I made tea, of all things, in my Mors pot...and I'm way more of a coffee drinker! I really need to get that video edited.... I'm glad to see that someone else is also honoring Mors' wonderful legacy of teaching others how to venture outdoors.
Thanks! I'm happy you liked it. Ah no big deal because I've heard Mors mention making a pot of tea a few times. I'm hoping there's a lot of tributes made for him. Take care and thanks for watching Brother
I remember hearing many times how those Mors Pots held 1.8 liters of water, "a cup of tea for ten people", or whatever the number was ;)
Lol, yep. Ive heard him say that!
Dave, you did a great job in remembering a great man. No better way to eulogize a teacher, than by spreading his teachings.
Thanks, I'm happy you liked the video my friend
David liked the video 👍 Mors Kochanski was one of the legend of what Bushcraft is today he laid the foundation teachings we use today he was old school and can anyone fill them shoes what little I know about him from watching some of his video the man knew his stuff and got results he didn't just teach you he did it and lived it and in my book that is a great leader may his memory live on in are hearts and when we spend time in the great outdoors let us remember the skills he contributed that makes Bushcraft so injoyabole have a great day and Blessed New year
Thanks Brother and very well said! No one will ever take Mors place. We have plenty of Bushcraft and Survival instructors but none like him. Thanks for watching and a Happy New year to you too
The coffee snobs are LOSING THEIR MINDS! I love Cowboy/Army coffee, percolator too. The coffee snobs say never boil it. Whatever. I'm bring a BIG cup for some of that!
Lol, man some say dont boil, some say boil one minute and some say boil five minutes. I say this method works for me Brother! Thanks for watching
Really nice tribute to Mors, well done Dave.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
Thanks Dave. I first heard of Mors Kochanski and Lofty Wiseman from YOU and will always remember you for that. Fortunately about 5 years ago. I got two autographed books from him for his 79th birthday special. Received them a week later, 13 days later he was gone. BTW it's great coffee. Tom Roycraft passed away 3 days ago. Kind of like Mark Twain and Halley's Comet. Thanks again for all you do. M.G.( 200 east of you.)
Good to hear that Mark and I'm glad you liked it. Lofty is a legend too. I hate hearing about Tom Roycroft. Without him Mors may not have gotten into bushcrafting. Thanks for watching
That was just awesome right there! Thanks for passing on the knowledge Brother. I'm sure Mr. Mors would be proud 👍🏻👍🏻~John
Thanks Brother John, I'm glad you liked it. I hope Mors is looking down and knows we miss him. Thanks for watching
Thank you for your contribution and humbleness. I have learned alot from your videos. Keep up the great work. Have you thought about writing a book or teaching a class? I'm sure people would be interested in it. I know I would.
Thanks, and thats great to hear! No books, Im too lazy and the market is flooded with books now. As I age or as life slows down I do want to host fully equipped camp outs for those that never get to go camping. Lifes just too busy right now. Thanks for watching
Thank you or doing I correctly on the coffee and thanks or the remembrance of Mors!!!!!
Thanks Brother, I'm glad you liked it.
Thank You for sharing about this great man of Bushcraft!
You are very welcome and thanks for watching Julie
Dave! Just came back from 5 days in the Cherokee National. This was a great treat to welcome me back to civilization when I hit cell service again.
Thanks for all you do!
Thanks Nate, I'm glad you liked it. Sounds like a fun trip! Thanks for watching
