I go to make coffee the other morning, grabbed a mug which slips out of my hand and hits the glass carafe, shattering it be. Broken glass everywhere. Not what you wanna encounter half asleep with no Joe in your system. Ms. buzzsaw finds the percolater we use for camping. Took forever to brew on the glass stovetop. Not the best but sufficed. That evening i made a trip to Walmart to but a new coffee maker. Went to grab more coffee too and no French vanilla, so grabbed "breakfast blend". She sets the new one up so i grab the last bag of coffee from the hall closet, not realizing it had a slight tear and leave a trail of coffee grounds to the kitchen. Pull out the vacuum. As she it putting away the few groceries i picked up she points out the "breakfast blend" i bought was decaf! Talk about a bad coffee day!
The thought did cross my mind, but im a zombie without coffee. I had to drop her off for an MRI on the other side of town at noon. I stopped at Cumberland Farms near there and got my one size fits all .99c coffee. Actually very good for a buck.
Percolator takes forever, but the coffee is 100 times better in my opinion. I usually use mine in the winter, so its about time to dust it off!
When I go camping, making coffee is one of my group tasks. Boil water in coffee pot on Coleman stove. Dump in measured coffee Stir Place coffee pot on wood stove to keep hot, not boiling After 10 mins, stir Stir again after another 10 mins Pour into French press/thermos and pour to enjoy.
