Making a Good Pot of Campfire Coffee
Вставка

- Just as the title indicates, this is a simple tutorial on making a good pot of coffee over a fire. I also talk about how the best things in life are often the simplest things in life that we take the time to do right.

Every time I listen to Dwayne my stress level goes down and I'm cool the rest of day keep up the good works
Yes he has one of the most calming voice.
Ditto.
Agreed!
Yep ..But then I realise they're coming for our children
Words of wisdom …….I love it .
and ditto on “Yellowstone” ……while Kevin Costner has done some great movies , this show is Hollywood’s typical use of excessive violence and vulgarity (and I’m no saint by any standard). Slow down…..we should all heed this advice.
Came here for the coffee, ended up with a whole new look at life that is now making me re-think my entire life. Definitely subscribing.
I was just about to comment this and it’s my feelings exactly
Same here, I envy this man's commitment to enjoying the simpler things in life. My wife and I as well as our two small children are seriously considering leaving the city life for a more simple way of life. God bless and best of luck.
@@mike.p.1400 Try sitting in L.A. traffic since you have the right mindset. My mindset is getting to work on time because my family depends on me to do it. You think Ukrainians are pretending to be content with their situation just because they have the right mindset? Those people are thinking about staying alive along with their loved ones. It's easier to enjoy your life journey when you don't have anything else to worry about. You have already paved your own road at this man's point.
I came for the stoic philosophy, I brought my own coffee.
First video I watched I subscribed.
I'm 65. I slowed down 15 year ago. Slowing down and a few blessings is how I've made it to 65.....happier than ever.
Slow down wait a minute is the best damn advise in life. Patience is the key to a happy relaxed life.
I feel relaxed simply watching this man make coffee, smoke a fat one and tell us to just chill. Needed that.
It works wonders. The Dude abides.
😂💯💯💯
Two cups of good coffee served in mismatched mugs off a cinder block. Perfect! Keep up the good work. 👍
It's a beautiful thing.
Wife and I started out together very poor. One of the first things we bought was a percolating coffee pot. Made the best coffee and we still have it after 28 yrs.
The last half of video speech is 💯. This guy is aware of how fake the world has become. Respect!
It's to the point where artificial has even become artificial. I lived lies for so long but it was a mistake. I feel much better now having accepted that I don't need the acceptance of the fake masses because God and family come first.
I’m a city boy from Akron Ohio and I love this channel! I’m a school teacher and I spend my summers “slowing down”. It’s so fun. Garden, French press coffee, then around noon I switch to beer. Work in the yard, play some music, nap. Repeat! God Bless America!
I came in to make coffee, I came out learning a life lesson. I appreciate this, sir. Thank you…
Gave my grandpa a Mr. Coffee years ago went to see him the next weekend, it was sitting up high on a shelf in the kitchen, could tell it was used (once), I asked him why it wasn't on the counter. He only had a few words for me. "I don't drink instant coffee either". Always made his coffee in a coffee pot or peculator, pure grounds and time and patients. Rethought my future gifts. Grampa was always about quality and time. "If your going to do some thing take your time and do it right or don't do it at all" Your Canadian Friend and Fan
Someone gifted my grandfather (WWII vet a mr coffee in the 70s or 80s when they first came out and he did the same thing, used it maybe once then put it away. When my mom asked him why he didn’t use it he said it didn’t get the coffee hot enough because he liked it “piping hot.” He used a percolator on the stove.
The world would be a better place with more teachers like this!
"Customize your life"- I love that and it’s so true. If you want to control your anxiety and your stress, slow down. That’s what I’ve been doing for several years and it works great, but I still get caught in the ways of the conditioned thinking, but I’m aware of that right away and I stop…and slow down.
I get up at 4:30 am everyday (including weekends) and I have a routine that it’s enjoyable and don’t require rushing. I get up, feed my cats, brew my coffee ( similar to Dwayne’s way) enjoy my cup of coffee, do the bathroom thing, take a shower and do everything in the NOW. I’m not thinking about work, I’m not thinking about how much work I have to do today, I don’t care nor think about it, those thoughts aren’t allowed in my brain. I simply enjoy the moment with a soothing instrumental music in the background while I do my routine. That’s my meditation method, stay in the present moment because that’s where I live.
I don’t live an hour away from now. I live right now.
I do this all the way until I get to work at 6:30 am ( I don’t have to be there until 7:30am, though) I get there and begin my day preparing what’s to be delivered that day.
I’m in logistics, so by the time employees start arriving, I have everything ready and we open for business. And I try my best to stay in the present and do things following steps I developed in order to reduce stress in employees and customers. We don’t jump from 1 to 5. To get to 5 you have to go through 2, 3 and 4 and this makes the day at work more enjoyable.
I love watching Dwayne’s videos. He uses every second of every one of his videos to say something interesting and helpful. That’s very valuable.
Stay present my friends.
My friends and I go camping about 4 times a year, usually on a friends land sometimes at a hunting lodge (yeah, not really "camping" but no cell or wifi or stoves). First one up is responsible to get coffee going (usually me). Nice sitting by a creek, perc in the coals, peace and quiet. Once everyone is up, we all get breakfast going (about 6 or 8 of us), more coffee made, games (and liquor) come out, then dinner. Life is simple, when you decide it should be!
A good coffee and a cigar is the best to remind you of a simple life. Time to SLOW down and truly enjoy life.
Nothin like a pot of coffee and a Marlboro in the mornin and a glass of bourbon and a cigar in the evening.
Best coffee experience for me was my percolator over a fire in the Wasatch Mtns with plain old Folgers in the 1960s. Now I am a geezer and we grind our coffee fresh every morning from fresh roasted beans from Bisbee AZ's Old Bisbee roasters, delivered by mail weekly. No better coffee, but the experience is not so magical as that old campfire coffee. When we go up the mountain and combine the two, heaven is close at hand. I am greatful for Dewayne's simple approach to life.
Finally! A simple man with simple yet powerful message more folks need to hear. I've been of this mindset all my 65 years.
And thanks for showing folks denim ain't dead. Plus, good coffee and a fine cigar in the Hill Country! "It don't get no better!"
Dwayne is a modern day prophet. I could listen to him for hours. He has a fabulous voice and his philosophy on life is compelling. Bet his coffee is damned good, too!
I'm really starting to like hearing this guy's voice. It's so soothing and relaxing.
I havent watched televisuon in over 10 yrs. Completely opened my life.
The best advice a guy I used to date gave me, was to slow down. To be patient and learn to wait. 1 of the best peices of advice I was ever given.
"Life is yours, make it a good" best advice I have heard
I have that same coffee pot in my camper I have had for over 25 years. Guy I used to Elk Hunt with got it for me. Ed passed awhile back. While at his elk camp, he had some rules. You leave your problems at the gate to get up here. You dont badmouth or bitch at his camp about people. Coffee is made in a peculator, not a machine. And most of all, you leave his camp a better person. Watching these videos remind me of Ed
I feel like you are my uncle giving me sage advice on horses and life. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
I would get up at 3am, fill my french press with water. Microwave for 5 minutes while brushing my teeth. Grind up some good whole bean. Set up my press. Take shower, get dressed. My coffee has been brewing all the while. Press and go. Sipping some strong brew easing down the road. I'm retired now. Same routine but now my doggy (big black German Shepherd) gets me up every day about 7 or 8. Best alarm clock in the world. lol
Sir, you are as much a philosopher as a cowboy. Thank you for all your insights and wisdom as well as the instructive tutorials. Blessings to you and your family.
I really appreciated when Dewayne talked about checking out 'Yellowstone' from the library, hearing it'd mirror his way of life and appeal to him, only to find it's just Hollywood's glitzy take with no resemblance.
It's a cool reminder of how real life, with its genuine, custom-made moments, often beats those scripted versions we see on screen.
It's neat how he encourages us to seek out the authentic stuff over the flashy but fake.
Thank you for the reminder to slow down.
Keep the gold coming, Dewayne
I love the coffee tips but I love the chat even more. Thanks for sharing some wisdom with us
I remember way back when everyone had a percolator. When that thing got cranking, it would fill up the entire house with that angelic coffee smell. At my Grandpa's house I noticed that he would pour some of the steaming hot coffee in the saucer, blow on it for a second and either drink it right from the saucer or dump it back into the cup. At my tender age, I didn't realize that after the percolator is done, that's some scalding hot coffee. To this day, I want my coffee sipping hot, not luke warm that you get in a restaurant. Nice job on the video!
You’re my kind of people. The world would definitely benefit from slowing down and doing things in a more collected and wholesome manner. There’s no substitute for a good pipe/cigar and a hot cup of coffee in the morning. Life is yours. Good stuff, brother!
I have consumed a lot of coffee in my life but the one most memorable was with my mom in 1983. We had just purchased some acreage near Chevron Canyon, Az and took a ride to check out the area. At midday I built a small fire and brewed some coffee similar to what you did in a pot like yours. While sitting in the shade we ate and drank coffee on our property for the first time. I have never had a better cup of coffee. Along with the aroma of the coffee there was the smell of the pinion pines, crows making noise and a nice breeze. Mom and I shared a lot of coffee and whiskey over the years but that day remains a treasured memory.
Going through Yellowstone episodes and showing where they got the cowboy wrong would be interesting to watch.
This guy is the definition of a real man.
I stumbled across your channel and so glad i did. It so nice to find someone who thinks like you! I like how you view life and your wisdom and willingness to teach what you know. I don’t watch TV any more I usually just watch down to earth people on UA-cam. I also use a percolator. I get my coffee ready the night before and than just plug it in in the morning. I also have a percolator that you can use on the stove or camp fire. There is nothing like percolator coffee!
I roast my own beans and brew in a French press. I’m used to my coffee taking time. It’s worth it. It’s my time to slow down and relax. Same with how I shave. I use a straight razor. The extra few minutes it takes to make a lather and strop the razor is quiet time for me. A great way to start the day off right. Thanks for the wisdom, Sir.
Age and common sense = wisdom. I use an old drip pot and Community dark roast, perfection.
My brother uses a percolator when we go camping, and it's so good. Thanks for the talk, Dwayne.
Great video! There's nothing like a good cigar and campfire/cowboy coffee!
"You gotta find ways in your life to slow down" Amen! Especially when you're camp'n.❤
Forget Yellowstone, YOU need your own TV show. So much sage wisdom in these videos. Hope you get that land in TN, that's where I live. I'd love to have a cup of coffee around a campfire with you cowboy
I thought that I was the only guy on the planet who didn’t like Yellowstone! Thanks for the video.✌️
I just found a kindred spirit! Enjoy life, bring back the fine art of porch sitting!!!
You remind me of my uncle, God rest his soul. It's nice to hear a similar lesson to what he'd give me when I was a kid.
Thanks for the videos!
Great video! I hate when I see people needlessly covering their coffee pots and pans with blackened soot because they cook on "flames of a wood fire". Always cook on "hot coals", never flames! BTW, percolator coffee pots have been around since the 1800s, so I'm pretty sure the true Cowboys and Vaqueros also brewed their coffee in percolators/coffee pots directly on the coals.
I've got a coffee pot just like yours, and make my coffee just like you do when camping. Great message too--I'm sold. Love it.
So what exactly is the manufacturer?? Thanks in advance
@@AmericanPatriot014 To be honest, I've had it so long I don't remember who the manufacturer is. Sorry!
@@Doxymeister Hey there DashshundsRule...no worries my friend. Percolated coffee is so great!!! Take care out there!
I believe everything you said between 6:00 to 10:55 is the cure for depression
What I wouldn't give to bail on school and come hang out with this guy. The wisdom is always appreciated.
Yessir, great video. I hardly any TV other then old westerns on GRIT. I enjoy a good cigar and camp fire or cowboy coffee and relaxing.
Glad to see another good ol Southern boy bringing back the old days. Enjoy your videos brother.
I Know how to bushcraft, Camp and cook in the wilderness, and of course make coffe.
But I really enjoy watching you do it in a great place when I'm stuck in the city and can't. Thank you.
It's a calming thing that brings me back to where I need to be.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Simplicity is a beautiful gift 🙏🏽♥️
7:10 "You're life will be so much better if you just... slow down". Love it.
Respectfully sir , we are all watching you on a glass screen . So , if you are saying we shouldnt resort to a glass screen to entertain ourselves , then , should we not be watching you ? I love this channel , there is no turning back . It's too damn good to stop watching . Keep em coming !
Wrangler Blue Jeans the best camping campfire clothing item!! Nice jeans bud
It just goes to show if you slow down, you can get more enjoyment out of things. Put the phone down, put the remote down, get outside, start living.
Sir, THANK YOU for reminding me to slow down and enjoy the quiet moments. I TRULY need to slow down and enjoy my coffee rather than gulp it down and hurry to the next thing
Sharing coffee time with you today was a great pleasure for me. I have a nice percolator like yours. My parents gave me and my two sisters each one as a gift. The adaptability is wonderful. Enjoyed the great ‘slow down’ advice, too.
These videos are so nice! I percolated coffee over a fire for the first time with my friends on a trip recently, I did it completely wrong, but it was still cool to do it in a more involved way!
Customize Our Coffee and Our Lives ! What a great Video and Once again a great message. It is our life and I believe God wants Us to find the Joy in it . You are right about a hurried life . Keep this message going 😇
This channel is genuine gold. Thanks, Dwayne
Life is like a cup of coffee it’s as good as you make it
Without evening knowing it I bought that same percolator last week (Coletti Bozeman). Man oh man does that thing make a fine cup of coffee! Been a while since I’ve used one, but 4 minutes was the trick, Thanks!
Thank you Dwayne for teaching us all how to be men.
The traditional Italian Bialetti Moka Express pot is great for this. Every Italian household has one.
"Life is yours, make it a good one." Love it brother, the little things in life are the most fulfilling...
Thank you Sir! I have enjoyed each and every one of your videos. Not only do I enjoy the topic but I also enjoy the message you have to go with it. Thanks again!
Great video .
I have the same coffee pot and the aroma that comes out of that coffee pot is awesome!
You’re absolutely right we all need to slow down.
Thanks
“Customize your life.” Gold!
Dwayne speaks a lot of truth,, fortunate I feel like I’ve got a good amount of my life ahead of me and I realized to slow down early on, life is more enjoyable when you stop to appreciate it
I watch your videos and you take me back to reality and slowing down. Everyone is in too much of a hurry. I'm old school and I like your way of explaining stuff. You make me relax. Thanks for your attitude
"life is yours, make it a good one". So simple yet so poignant.
Yeah, Doc Brown said the same thing 31 years ago. Accept he was talking about your future.
If this man did audio recordings for books id have listened to every one by now.
🙌🏻 Finally someone else who doesn’t like Yellowstone. I made the mistake of buying it. Didn’t even unwrap the second dvd. Great talk. So glad we found your channel tonight. God bless!
You are right Dewayne.
Even in urban set-up it's not too hard to make REAL coffee.
A turkish coffee pot (I highly recommend smaller ones, no more than 2 expresso cups capacity), turkish coffee grade grinder (or buy it ground), a stovetop - et voila!
Just make sure you watch it like a hawk and take it off the stove before it all runs out.
And remember - the grinds are there at the bottom of the pot - careful as you pour it out.
P.S.
I only call it turkish because that's how it was introduced to me.
It can be rightfully called Greek, Armenian or Arabic - whichever you prefer.
This channel is a treasure I just found today. ✨ Great advice. We all need to unplug and detach from this ‘assembly line’. God bless 🤗
I agree, A good cup of coffee is definitely worth the time and effort!
I love that big red coffee container, looks very charming.
I'm with that life is crazy.. slow down relax back to the basics and enjoy the little things that mean something to us.
I've got a college degree in the area of psychology and I have to admit to you are a natural human psychologist. SLOW DOWN is the best advice in this modern world.
I had to give up coffee several years ago, because the caffeine stopped agreeing with me, but we always made it in a percolator. My grandmother had a nice electric percolator for about 20 years...the thing probably still works, if only we still had it. I miss the smell of boiling coffee.
As the wind blows, the grass grows and the sky is blue. Slow down and notice. Good advice Dwayne, I'm with ya on this one.
I’m an old retired cop with a new motto “Slow down, Relax” I love it!!! I got my cigars, now I need a percolator!!!!
I agree slow down I've been preaching this also , I'm a mountain man reenactment lover and I carry it over in my real life. Here's to u my friend coffee ☕ time .
I like your way of thinking i am 65 retired commercial construction supt. Now that i am retired i had a hard time slowing down till i screwed up my back just had surgery now i have to slow down. thanks for your videos the world needs to listen
My grandparents made coffee like this but on the stove. 20 yrs ago I started doing the same. Makes the best coffee.
Completely correct about slowing down; we all have become a sheep. Thanks for your videos sir, Texan here myself. God bless
Howdy from the UK! I have only recently started to take my coffee without milk/cream to reduce the amount of lactose/sugar I consume in a day, it is scary how much I was drinking in my four or five lattes a day. It is taking a bit of time (no problem there) but I am gradually appreciating the different flavours and nuances in real coffee which milk tends to mask. I still can't do it without sugar or sweeteners though!! Of course, being a Brit a good cup of tea wins hands down :)
Thank you for your kind and warm advice Sir, ...it comes at a very emotional time in my life, and your words feel just right.
I am a coffee drinker myself, and I got a number of coffee pots to slowlly brew a good cup.
I find, and try my time with coffee, to be in peace with the world.
You are so right!!!
“”Lord, Mr. Ford, what have you done?” - Jerry Reed
Watching from the UK. This guy is great, we don't get to have this way of living I'm so jealous.
Thank you so much for these videos and how free and relaxed you are.
You can begin to integrate these ideas into your life, if you choose to. Even though you may be limited by where you live, there must be places where you can do things your own way.
Not only do you make good coffee you are also a Great Philosopher. I liked your take on "Yellowstone".
Man, that's probably the best advice I've heard in a long time. Slow down, life is yours. Make it a good one.
This guy knows whats up. A nice cigar and some coffee👍 weed and coffee is really good too
Hubby and I do coffee up in a percolator when we are winding down and I'll toss a tablespoon of Christmas spices every once in a while , especially in the winter time , we quite often turn the lights off and put our oil lamps on and listen to old radio shows from the 40's , he'll be listening and I'll be quilting , sometimes yahtzee by lamplight 😁
Wild West Wisdom at its best. I think it was either Mark Twain or Will Rogers who said, "It doesn't take a lot of words to speak the truth." Thank you Dwayne for speaking truth in these crazy times. People want to "Make America Great Again." Well.....Dwayne is steering us toward True North. 🇺🇸 I come from a military family; My Grandpa Joe flew in WW I, my Uncle John flew in WW II, and my Dad Jim flew in Vietnam. They've all 🎖🎖🎖"Flown West" (R.I.P.) but if they were still here, I know they'd be watching this channel with me. 🙏God Bless you Dwayne, & God Bless America. 🇺🇸
Just stumbled across this channel and subscribed immediately.... Love it.
People like Dewayne put my faith back into the human race again
Greetings from Northern Ireland
I just stumbled onto your channel here and I must say that I have found a kindred spirit here. We both have been hit with the same club, if you will! I love what you're doing and I love this channel that I just found. I totally agree with you about "Slowing Down"! I'm 75 years young and have been down the road a bit. I'm fed up with the rat race, dog eat dog life and people and I have slowed down ON PURPOSE I live in Kingman Arizona and love the pace here. You do have some Commifornia transplants that seem to bring their crazy ways with them. I'm a transplant myself from there but have slowed down on purpose. I think that's why I identify with you so much. Do keep up the good work that you're doing.. And know that there is someone out here that is rooting you on! Keep the faith my brother!
Really appreciate hearing your philosophies on life. Lotta wisdom behind that mustache, man.
I'm from Texas, and your voice and mannerisms remind me so much of one of my uncles.
Love this man. 👍
I love you, man! 😄
Tips and tricks to make better coffee and some good life advice 👍🏼
"Customize your life" I love it.Thank you Sir. 🖐🤠☕
