- Correction on one thing I said. Water boils at a lower temperature at High Altitudes. Seems to take longer as well. But? Wow! This worked just super! Dry campers/Boondockers take note. 7 minutes was the key. Check out my NEW version of Cowboy Coffee here: • Cowboy Coffee II New ... It's even better.
Anybody tell cowboy Kent Rollins he has a fan ?
Yes I did compliment him. :) My Grandmother made coffee like this too.
He doesnt have big bertha in his yard. Ya i watch cowboy kent rollins to lol
I make my coffee like this. It does make a better cup of coffee
I add the grounds ( medium or course ground ) when the water is starting to boil. At a boil remove it from the heat. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then drop in a ice cube or some cold water. Let it sit for a few minutes and then enjoy it. You can make it in a normal Pot , Tea Kettle or if you are a purist even a coffee pot. ( basically anything you can boil water in and pour from )
I'll have to try that. Thanks sir. :)
Thanks for your little message at the end about the grounds. So how do you clean them out without going down the drain? That’s one easy thing about a drip machine with a filter.
I will wipe it out with a paper towel and rinse out the pot with some water and spill that into a trash bag or into a waste receptacle. You can also rinse into an open paper napkin like a filter.
@@garlandstyle5797 thanks!
In México this coffe Is call (café de olla) and allot of people make this her coffe. Because they think the coffemaker Is not nessesary.
My husband makes my coffee in the mornings! My dad made my mom coffee and breakfast too. It's a very thoughtful and sweet thing to do and costs nothing. I appreciate it every single day! He also sets up my coffee cup and writes a sweet note underneath it. We've been married 30 years. He's a keeper!
Definitely a keeper. :)
Dinah Burnett that’s very nice to hear in today’s society. Congratulations and best wishes for many more happy years.
Hit k50 year anniversary this year. Guess we'll keep working on it. LOL
Garland Style congratulations and god bless.
Congratulations! You're both very lucky!
That is how the Puerto Ricans do it except we pour it in a coffee sock to catch the grounds and man is it delicious.
My grandpa taught me cowboy coffee when i. Was 8 years old. Thats how i always make it and im about to be 50. It sure is the best. And zero heartburn aswell. Because u boil the acid out of it. Thank for the video
Cool! :) I don't get heartburn from this coffee either. A lot of ppl have a slight twist on it, but this is about as simple as it gets. I watched Kent Rollin's video and adapted it to camper life. So many places we went to this last year had burn restrictions on, we had to make it this way. :) Thanks for watching.
Charles Graham We need more Grandpa's like that.
Whole house smells like wonderful coffee when made with a percolator.
Your doing it all wrong. Bring the water to boiling then add coffee for 5 min then pour a cup of water to settle the ground to the bpttom.
I tried it several ways, yours too. Not much difference really to us. Thanks Jason.
I tried this and it works but I don't make mine that strong or boil it that long. 3 or 4 minutes for me. Also I grind my coffee beans in a 122 year old antique burr coffee grinder that was probably used in a general store somewhere. Makes very good coffee.
Really unthinkable a long time they didn’t have coffee makers, the6 just had fire and water. Just boil water and add coffee grinds.
I prefer this coffee myself. :)
Thanks, I will give it a try. I am so sick of the drip coffee makers that make poor quality coffee.
Play with the amount of coffee you use and how long you brew it d max. Hot dang it, this is good. Perfect it to your taste! :)
I have been experimenting with this, I have used over the years a very expensive espresso machine and have to say straight away nothing beats a good coffee made from a pump machine with good beans and made correctly! But I found this method above of coffee making the best of the other methods of French press, drip coffee and moka pot. I have found a good ratio to start is for one good sized mug of coffee is 15 grams of coffee ground up to about the same as a French press , so pretty course, two mugs of cold water to boil to make one mug of coffee. I use a simple plastic 7 gram spoon so two spoons of that and two mugs of cold water to boil is a simple formula. Double or treble this for 2 to 3 servings mugs etc.
The thing on making it is to add the coffee to cold water set it on to a boil, then have it boil no hotter than to just bubble around the edges and not to break the middle up for four minutes, then add cold water straight away tap the jug or pan a few times hard with a wooden object and pour slowly. If you have done the above then it should be a nice clean tasting cup with god flavour, not bitter and no grounds in the cup.
Listening to you talk about coffee is very relaxing
You owe Kent Rollins props for copying his process and recipe. He defined cowboy coffee.
I used the coffee pot to make coffee like my dad and grandmother did way back! It didn't work very well so I looked around online on UA-cam and found ways to make it. Saw Kent's video and decided that would be an appropriate name. :) I tweaked the recipe a bit and now I love it. Did another video of the refinements and it is my favorite. I like Ken'ts videos. :)
Daniel Burd You do realise Kent didn’t invent this type of coffee?
@@lucasduncan1082 Yup, he's a young'un. Cowboy coffee has been around since the 1800s. :)
Garland Style Awesome, mate! 👍😊 I’m from Scotland and watched a few videos of this cowboy coffee now ... definitely plan on making some myself!
@@lucasduncan1082 Play around. :) It's FUN and delicious. Thanks for watching.
Heat water before adding coffee. Leave lid off while it boils.
Interesting. I'll have to try that out. Thank you.
Miners coffee from my grandfather a gold miner...put handful of unground beans in enameled blue pot and boil slowly for 2 hrs then drink but save beans and a little coffee till next day then put in a half handful of beans and boil and so on the 3d day up to a week. The aroma goes 200 feet and fills your house. Wow. Terrific strong dark coffee day 2 on ...terrific coffee the old way.
I use the farberware purculator which is great. My grandmother always said 1 tbsp per cup and one for the pot so 7 tbsp for 6 cups of what is called cowboy coffee today. Back then it was just called coffee, you know, from when men were men.
men were men, and farm animals were. ..................moooo mooooo, baaaaaaaah baaaaaah, oiiiiiiiink oiiiiiiiiink!
boo hoo on every good farm there is a jackass and that seems to be you. Bray baby bray.
And one for the pot 😄😇 Such a grandma thing to say ❤️
pokes inna nail biter! was not pretty, nor perfect, butt 10-6 is way, way better than 9-7. extra t's, umhugh?
Just BOIL the water first!!! then take off heat and add coffee and mix then wait let it steep!
then after 5 minutes pour small cup of COLD wtaer on top and all the grounds go to bottom! then pour a cup to drink!!! work and TASTE is BETTER!!! Boiled coffee,,,, How gross is that!!
Sounds like it is definitely worth a try. Thanks Timothy.
Not gross at all -- at least the three cups I had with breakfast this morning were grand.
My dad, 91 years old, still makes coffee in a pot like that! He likes his strong as well! I suspect his key is 7 days... i'm not really a fan.... :)
*LOL* It IS strong, but we do love morning coffee. Thanks! :)
Pour your used coffee grounds into your compost or your garden....Used coffee grounds add nitrogen and potassium to the soil. It's a pest repellent, too.
There is no such thing as a stovetop percolator that makes weak coffee. If you use a stovetop percolator, you control the strength by how much coffee you use and long you allow it to percolate. Fill the basket 3/4 full with coarse ground coffee, then let it perk for ten minutes after it starts perking. If not strong enough, let it perk longer. But suit yourself, if you like the cowboy coffee, stick with it.
Yep.. I agree. Add to that, all coffee brands are not created equal. Some are not as strong or aromatic when brewed. :) Thanks Frank
My mom used use these and then she bought a electric percolator. I have an induction stove so I have use the electric percolator, but thanks for sharing how a real good pot of coffee is percolated.
I miss boondocking and my Cowboy Coffee. I love it so much better than Mr. Coffee. But? Happy Wife, Happy Life. LOL
Cowboy Kent Rollins says to pour a little cold water in the spout after boiling and it will help the grounds settle. That's all.
I do put some in the spout. Coulda sworn he poured a little in the top in the video. But it comes out SO good! Thanks! :)
Glad I'm not the only one who makes coffee this way and I've brewed up coffee on camp fires, camp stoves,wood stoves you name it this is my go to method and sure is good early morning coffee takes the chill off when out doing my survival scouting.
I admit I grew up with my parents making coffee like this. But they are from another country, you use what you have :-)
The phrase " don't stir the pot " came from cowboy coffee you always ask cookie, top of the pot or bottom? Before you pour, pouring slowly if he says bottom.
Very interesting! :) Thanks
I was a cook in the Army 74-76 stationed in Germany.when we went to the field for maneuvers this is the same way we did it only on a very larger scale
Were you anywhere near Grafenwohr?
Got my coffee pot out yesterday to season it and make a nice pot this morning. Well, she's a leaker. Right through the seam in the bottom. Slow, but it drips. JB Weld to the rescue. Now I'm waiting until tomorrow at lunch time to start because I need up to 24 hours to cure the JB Weld to be food safe. Almost threw the pot out because I lost the percolator insert, but luckily I saw some vid's on cowboy coffee first. Would've been a waste of a 28 cup stainless pot.
Whoa.. that stinks. Hope your pot works out alright. I bought that little one at a 2nd Hand Store for a couple of dollars. :)
Cowboy Kent Rollins says to warm the water a little before putting the coffee in the pot.
I think I'm going to try that. We love the coffee as is right now. I fill up the pot at night with water, add my coffee grinds, and in the morning turn on the stove. So easy, just turn on the stove. :) I will try this though.. Thanks OneThrough8.
Yep and he also has some other great tips on Cowboy Coffee
I have a small percolator coffee pot and it makes the best cup of coffee. I let it perk for 7 minutes. Will try this!
My Percolator with the coffee holder just wasn't working right for some reason. Give it a try. :)
Ever try french pressing the grounds away? This is like how we made our coffee out in the field when I was in the army. But we used a french press.
I have thought about trying that. I'm keeping my eye open in thrift stores for one at a bargain. I'll try it as well, but have my trusty beat up pot in case. Thanks! Michael
I have done this for 43 years it's great. Not that drip drip on most people's counter crap.
My wife just tried cowboy coffee; and she won't be going back to the drip drip drip stuff..
This is the way of making coffe in Balkans and Turkey for about 400 years
So I love strong coffee and my family is Panamanian and this is how I do my coffee. I thought the coffee should taste how the grounds smell. That is why I can't stand the coffee stores coffee. I just call this method the poor mans coffee. No special devices needed. Lol. Having some now. Plus this method has more caffeine because the grounds are In the water I found out. Vrmmmmm ready to go,
Giovanna M , yea , the best method . Im drinking it right now ( its almost 9'o clock in the evening now but what a heck i wana enjoy that raw taste ). I to dont like coffe from shops it is watered down,has no taste . I like to see beans roasted and the smell of roasted coffe. We roast our coffe in house. Because when you buy grinded one in shop they add wheat and who knows what to gain weight and it meses up the taste.
Oh Panama that lovely country on two oceans,how cool is that. Have a nice day and enjoy that coffe ;)))
I guess some do not like grounds in their coffee but I love it. Years ago there was a coffee house in Redlands Ca called Grounds for Enjoyment and Man! that was some great coffee and those last few sips and even the last were amazing.
I don't mind a few grounds either Calvin. :) Thanks!
Actually, water boils at a lower temperature as altitude increases. The boiling point drops 1.8°F for each 1000 feet above sealevel. The reason it takes longer for it to boil is the efficiency of your burners fall off at an even faster rate with altitude.
Yep. realized that later after I posted it. *LOL* I should know, I live in Aurora Co.
Hey, I lived in Black Forest for ten years
ua-cam.com/video/ti90exoesEM/v-deo.html
+Jim Foreman> So Jim were/are moon-shiners better off in the mountains or not? Booze boils at a faster rate than water, but if the lower boiling temp is countered by the boiler fall off is the whole thing a wash, and it makes no difference? In other words there's no benefit in going to a higher elevation to set up your own distillery? Garland Style is from high Coors country, and you apparently lived in a country noted for its great brewmasters.
Moving to a higher elevation probably makes it harder for the revennoers to come raid your still.
Looks really good must try your method the cowboys way. I don’t leave my house without a black coffee slight different way, I guess the the same result, I use an Italian perculater but remembering my grandma many yrs ago before the percolators existed coffee was made your way, Happy drinking cowboys and cowgirls lol thanks for sharing. 👍🇬🇧
I'll make a revised video of this later with a tip. Get a fine meshed strainer, pour your coffee into the cup straining out any bits of grounds. This WAY improves the coffee. :) Have a great one and thanks for watching. Michael
Great video. I will try this. I just read where one can dry coffee grounds, and burn them to keep musquito's away. Will try that too. Happy trails.
Thanks. Never heard of burning grounds myself. Hey? Worth a shot. :)
I worked many ranches, some of the best cooks used a pinch of salt to take the bitterness out. When they set the pot off the fire a shot of cold or ice water (water trough! Lol would settle the grounds. I still make my cowboy coffee like that. Good video Brother Man
I do want to try that salt trick.. Iodized, Sea Salt, or Kosher salt. Thanks Extreme.
That’s it, looks good. I often just throw the coffee in the pot boil it , settle it and drink. Thanks, good stuff. Take care.
if you have a finer grind of coffee, use less time, like 4 min.. do not over boil your coffee,. heat is the enemy of a good cup of joe.
Thanks. Next time I'll try 4 minutes and let it steep and settle some. Worth a try. :)
Garland Style I do 4 minutes. Since I started this technique never make coffee any other way!
I still use a percolator like this one but I use the rest of the attachments. This is a great way to make fresh strong coffee.
Oh yea, are you crazy? Do you suffer from memory loss?
coffee grounds are very good for your plants or garden.
That's what I hear too! :)
I watched kent rollins do this and now have done it a few times. Worked perfect everytime nice that your showing this for people who hasn't watched kent do it.
Thanks. I really like this stronger coffee compared to perked. I'd never seen Kent make it until I had some comments about it. LOL
After it sits pour some cold water on it and put some in the spout it will take them coffee grounds to the Bottom...
I found an electric percolator in a secind hand shop in Sweden, when on holiday there (I live in The Netherlands). Percs very well and even stops at the right time, it automatically shifts to warm mode….
I love GOOD buys like that too.
I live in Goshen, Indiana. I don't work for Forest River, but I have friends who do.
Water boils faster at higher altitudes. The difference (and reason) is that at higher altitudes, the atmospheric pressure is lower. Higher pressure means a higher boiling point, while lower pressure means a lower boiling point. Therefore, water boils faster at higher altitudes, but it never reaches as high of a temperature as it does at lower altitudes.
Correct. I goofed on the video and corrected myself, I think, in the description? :) Glad you noted that.
Seeing the cowboy coffee in the title made me think of the western movie Conagher. They mentioned the cowboys only liked their coffee strong enough to float a horseshoe, that would be mighty strong.
LOL That would be strong coffee. :)
Conagher is a bad ass movie. Mmmm. Good coffee. Thanks my ma taught me.
I like to make my coffee at night and let it sit until the morning and just reheat I found it makes a smoother tasting coffee.
I gotta try this. I was confused by the mention of difficulty of boiling water at higher elevations. The decrease in atmospheric pressure means water’s boiling temp is lower so it should it take less time to boil but longer to cook things.
Yeah.. LOL I got that altitude thing wrong. I corrected it in the description. I just couldn't get that water to boil! I did another video and found we like this one better. ua-cam.com/video/jAWbf97Lylo/v-deo.html :) Enjoy, I hope you like it. Michael
If you pour a little (1-2 ounces) of cold water after you are done cooking the coffee , it settles all the grounds at the bottom of the pot.
I do exactly that. :) I made an improvement as well. A $1 fix. LOL here is the video. ua-cam.com/video/jAWbf97Lylo/v-deo.html
Water boils at lower temps, the higher you go. Sadly, once it hits that high altitude temp and starts to boil, it will not get any hotter than the temp at which it starts to boil, which is lower at altitude. Near the top of Mount Everest, water boils at less than one hundred degrees F. That low boiling temp means everything takes longer to cook or brew. A three minute egg up there is raw.
Yes.. that was my boo boo. LOL Thanks.
Where have you been all my life? Lol. This video made me subscribe! New to prepping so looking at doing things the old school (best) way!
With a name like Coffee Girl, I doubt I could teach you much. But I'll add a new tip I started using this trip. A small fine mesh (3" round?) sieve that fit right over the coffee cup! Gets out grounds so you can get to the last drop. I found it at the dollar store and tried it this trip out. Worked SO well! After it dries out in a few minutes, tap it and out come the grounds like a charm! No washing needed. *LOL* Thanks for watching.
You’re right good plan food grounds have a lot of nitrogen in them
Hey coffee girl try this getting old percolator coffee pot for the stove take the guts out put in three or four scoops of coffee right in the bottom of the pot add one egg crumble the shelves up right in the ground they go stir the bag and the grounds of well with the cattle or a pot add egg cups of boiling water bring to boil about five minutes then keep the pot and simmer add cold water to make the ground go toThis is the old cowboy coffee they think it was invented invented in Sweden
Coffee girl add one egg in the ground is eggshell and all with a fork whisk egg in the grounds add boiling water bring to boil five minutes put on simmer pour cold water on top
Hi Garland, thank you for the informative video! You seem to be the curious type, so I thought I'd provide some insight as to why you add cold water. Adding cold water makes the overall temperature of the coffee lower, while the grounds are still at relatively the same temperature. Hot things weigh more, so the grounds will sink. Something, something stress-energy tensor...I don't know, I'm not a physicist! I believe this is the main reason why cold water is added. Hope this helps you as much as you helped me.
Absolutely! I always want to know the why. :) I also tried another guys suggestion, tapping on the side of the pot with a spoon after it sat a minute. Heavier objects, soaked coffee grounds, will sink with some agitation. That worked too. LOL Thank so much. Michael
@@garlandstyle5797 I'm getting a lot of tips from you! I'll have to try the spoon trick too, I think I'm on my way to having a 100% ground-free coffee at this rate haha!
Interesting IVzxy - I thought cooler things are more dense and therefore sink to the bottom, like air and everything else. I don't understand the hotter is heavier comment. Help me understand your meaning about hot things weighing more. Thanks! @ivzxy
a shot of Irish creme . well maybe 2 shots
LOL Yeah, 2 for sure. :)
Best coffee on the world :D
You know? There are a lot of variations on this, but I love this the best. Tap the pot, use this, use that. Hey? Cowboy coffee with any variation is still the best to me. :) Thanks, Michael
Good video, thanks, I'll give it a try.
Looks good. Time for a change from the pod coffee I’ve been drinking. Thanks for the video.
It brews up a hearty cup of coffee. :)
My girlfriend won a pod coffee maker, so we've been using it. It sucks ass.
@@GreyRock100 I agree. Especially after I’ve made some real coffee I can’t stand the pods!!
@@jimmyb1559 It tastes like slightly better freeze dried coffee to me.
@@GreyRock100Exactly.
When you get to the bottom, you could take the grounds and just put a pinch between your cheeks and gums. 🤠
LOL :)
This didn't work for me. My coffee was too watery. I had stronger brew than what you had. I use Peet's dark roast. I ground the beans myself to around medium coarse.
Aww rats! Sorry. Less water maybe? Good luck with your brewing.
@@garlandstyle5797 I used four full scoops into 16oz of filtered water. I used a Pyrex measuring cup. And I didn't pour cold water. I strained through coffee filter.
I use 1 tablespoon per cup, plus 1 extra tablespoon. So, I usually fill my perc with water to the 6 cup line, I add 7 tablespoons of coffee and percolate it for 6 minutes (minute per cup). It's perfect.
@@janetsadeghi1501 that’s a percolator rule I read more on the internet: “a minute a cup”, goes even for the super large container percolators I heard (50 cups is 50
Minutes)
Water boils easier at higher altitude due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. It's the same principle as having a radiator cap.
Correct. Boils at a lower temperature.
I love the way you set everything up for your wife !!
add a pinch of salt to the water, takes out the bitterness and enhances the flavour. Coffee was always made like this in English country houses, glad you Americans have finally learnt
I'll try a pinch of salt! :) Thank you.
LOL, my great grand parents made their coffee like this on a wood stove. 😂💀 They were Native Americans.
Eifion Jones thank you for the tip. Tried a pinch in my cup after pouring the cowboy brew. Definitely balances out the flavor. For anyone wanting to try, don't overdo the pinch or it will be salty.
@@Tata-iu3fy I would love to learn how to cook like that. I want to do any kind of outdoor cooking (camp style) just don't know how exactly.
Eggshells absorb the bitter oils. Did this in field exercises. Best coffee ever
That percolating glass dome only really works with the percolating insert..
That’s why it’s not really percolating up..
You can gauge with the spout., you can see the boil there.
That's the way we used to do it camping on a fire pit. I tried it with the insert. But? It wouldn't percolate like that in the camper. and? I broke the dang glass dome. LOL
Garland Style that’s the greatest thing about Cowboy Coffee-
Just slap some tin foil o’er that hole and good as new!
Does make great coffee that way...
We made it that way for decades out in the desert racing .. pot,fire,water,coffee..
Simple.. WAY better than any machine- because they don’t get water hot enough long enough ..
The grounds are actually good to eat, just most people aren't used to that feel in the mouth. They make good plant fertiliser, too.
I don't mind the grinds at all. A ton of ppl do. :) Yes! I have heard it makes a great plant bedding. Thanks Ron.
Good to know!
cant believe i'm watching coffee boil! you really know how to live, lol! I knew about boiling, but the cold water trick is great. thanks for the tip!
It really does work. I was surprised, the grinds settle to the bottom within a minute. :) I tried pouring the coffee into a coffee filter to strain it afterwards, but it takes SO long. Thanks for watching.
Yep...lol I learnt somethang this mornin right long wit ya.......greetings from north florida..lake city to be precise....take. care and safe travels
The hard part is cleaning out the grounds.
When finished, I add a little water to the pot and swirl and dump through a small strainer into a cup a few times until clear. I don't like wasting water, so I only use a little bit to rinse it out. You can use a paper towel later to clean the inside if you want, but I'll go 2 or 3 weeks before doing that part. :)
@@garlandstyle5797 I'll give it a try. Thanks.
That’s how I do it too. Best way in my opinion.
Water boils faster and at a lower temp at altitudes above sea level.
Yep. I fox pawed that one. :) Just boils at a lower temperature, rather than 212º. :)
Thanks man this is some great stuff.
Thank you for the video Sir .... remains me of how my gran father used to make the coffee now I understand why every body liked the coffee when you boil the coffee like that you kill all the acid and the coffee taste a lot better than when you use a machine..... thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
A stainless steel French press is what I use after 45 years of drinking coffee and experimentation. Unbreakable, easy cleaning, 1 is lifetime useable
Where did you find a stainless steel one? I've only found glass and wow would that be great to have.
@@louisemissouri4410 just look it up on line, "Google it". Webstraunt carries a few. Secura 1500 ml on Amazon is a good one, comes with 3 extra fine screens. There are many choices out there. I got tired of breaking the glass French press in my morning foggy coordination. You can't go wrong with a SS press, this knowledge comes from my many years of scrutiny and experimentation. I hope this helps you, my fellow coffeeoholic.
I breakable if you don’t get a glass model.
I dont add cold water at the end. It is pretty clear.
One viewer suggested tapping on the side of the pot with a spoon for a bit. Apparently it settles the grounds. I've tried it and it seems to work. :)
Another idea,boil water then put a filter in a funnel, add coffee,pour water thru funnel and into cup. I use a tablespoon of coffee for about a 20 oz. Cup
hey whats wrong with your coffee it looks like it came in a folger's container
Hey there. I love that container for ease of scooping out coffee. I try different coffees from time to time. :) That wasn't Folgers if I remember correctly. :)
@@garlandstyle5797 haha just teasin ya. ever since i got into buyin green beans and roasting em in a cast iron, cant go back. they are nice containers though
@@diacurescom3897 wow. You are even roasting your own! Cudos sir!
Cowboy coffee truly is the best. Try it once you won't want it any other way.
I agree. I love it.
This is my formula....1:2 cups using the Mr Coffee measuring spoon ....perfect coffee
Hate to argue with you but water will boil sooner as altitude is increased. Water boils at about 2° less F for each 1000 feet as you go up. We used to live at 8000 feet and water boiled at less than 200°F.
Yes.. you are right. :) I realized later I got that goofed up. Water boils at a lower temp the higher you are. DUH.. Thanks Jim.
Same goes for making candy where you have to bring the sugar to a certain temperature.... you have to lower the temp by 2°F per 1000 feet. My wife made some peanut brittle based on the temps for sea level and it turned out to be peanut brutal, like trying to chew a plate glass window.
*LOL*
Thank You Cool Trick !
Any cowboy will tell ya " Don't stir the pot." Best coffee ever.
I still have my ma and pa coffee percolator coffee maker that looks just like that hanging on my wall or up so people can see it.
Every time I drink Folgers I keep trying it on with my sister. Yee Haaa for cowboy coffee.
Lol. I use 2tbls for 8cup in coffee maker and it's strong I guess I'm a wuss lol.
Well hey. Each to his own. I've been drinking coffee about 60 yrs, so maybe I've grown to like it strong. :)
Nice, thanks for sharing this video
It works! Try it and put your own twists on it. :)
I call this GI mess hall coffee
I can't remember back that far. I'm not sure I even had time to drink coffee. :)
@@garlandstyle5797 The field kitchens used to have a big pot of water boiling on the gas stove, dump in a whole bag of coffee, let boil, move it off to steep, slowly pour cold water on, and then ladle the coffee into your mug from the top. The trick to getting good coffee in the Army was to get there early, lest you got a cup of "mud" for being late to chow
@@jimmayors2315 LOL Sounds so interesting! Thanks for the info. Michael
@@jimmayors2315 Explains why I've known some guys who refer to their mud as "strong coffee" with a smile.
Linda is a lucky lady !!
LOL I've taken over the cooking since 2000. She cooked the first 22 yrs, so I'll do the rest now. :)
how to make coffee get a tin pan put about 4 cups of water into it, put your stove on max heat or if you are using a fire then put the pot over the fire. then add 3tsps of coffee grounds, let it come to a rolling boil (trust me it tastes best this way), and it's cheaper doing it this way and I have been making it like this for over 13 years. make it like this and you will never go back. (this is also called cowboy coffee) (btw this can also be made in a kettle and or literally any metal pot) don't worry the grounds will settle to the bottom by adding about a cup of cold water or just using a piece of cheesecloth or a coffee filter to filter off the grounds. thank me later.
prival fang three tsps with 4 cups of water? Or tbsp?
sorry i meant tbsp
prival fang thanks for the reply.. I wanna try this.. I never made it before and sounds good..
believe me its good
prival fang I'm trying it now.. How long do I let it boil?
This is like watching Water Boil !.
LOL Exactly! :)
That cold water got hot realy fast....
It sure did. LOL
Don't you use a filter to stop the grounds from dropping to the cup for any reason? (I'm not trying to be an @sshole with the question, I'm really curious).
I did try using the basket that came with the pot. But it kept overflowing during the boiling process. :( This way, and using a fine strainer works SO easy.
Enjoyed that. Thanks
Awesome!! Good morning to ya gonna make me some cowboy coffee now.
I brew My coffee in an array of 5 french presses in which I use an espresso cup as a measure to make My Coffee at room temperature the night before I go to bed and I press and finalize with a 6th press that filters upward, no grounds! Packed up in a gallon container for the next few days.
Good idea on packing up a few days in advance. :)
Looks absolutely delicious! Love this kind of coffee. I grew up on both percolated & boiled coffee. The old grounds weren’t always rinsed out when boiled coffee was being made. Sometimes the pot had 3 or 4 days worth of coffee grounds built up inside. You would only add about 1/2 as much coffee each day, but by that 4th or 5th day, the coffee was getting a bit strong.
Oh cool. I have to try that. Thanks.

Good way to make coffee just skip Folgers. Thats basically sawdust.
Grounds go into the compost pile!
Brewing is very similar to indian masala chai.
warm the water to half way boiling before adding coffee.
Does that make the coffee more mellow? Thanks, will have to try that.
