Coffee Camping Help

If you are an avid outdoorsman or woman, then you probably have discovered by now that you still need your coffee. Am I right? One way to go about this is to take advantage of some of the coffee technologies available to you, even though that may seem sacrilegious in the great outdoors.


A fantastic choice is the Bodum Travel Press Tumbler. This is perfect because you can French Press brew your own coffee within one mug, so all you need is some hot water to help you perk up in the morning.

Another interesting option is the MugMate, which works similar to a drop-down coffee filter that you will place directly into your cup of hot water. This again filters out the coffee grounds so that you can remove them when the coffee is done steeping.

Finally, check out the cup.pour.ri for a truly rustic option. This is a spoon with a coffee filter attached to it. You can fill it up with coffee grounds, and then stir it within your hot water to create a delicious cup of Joe.

Even when you are camping, you don't have to be without your coffee!

The Best Coffee Brewing Methods For Camping

Sure, when you are camping, you act all rough and tough like you don't need any modern conveniences... That is, until it's morning time, and you gotta have your cup of Joe! Let me start by saying that you can still hold your head high and enjoy a delicious Java in the wilderness with these easy methods.

The first one I recommend is using a travel French press, which is especially designed to extract one scoop of coffee grounds with hot water in a convenient travel cup that keeps the mess to a minimum. Otherwise, you can take your French press out to the wilderness with you, but only if it is the Bodum French Press brand made of unbreakable polycarbonate glass.

A Moka pot is another fantastic option because you can place it directly over your campfire heat to brew a fresh cup of Joe. It is a two chamber pot, where you will place water in the bottom and coffee grounds in the center of the pot. When you heat it over the campfire, the water will boil up through the coffee grounds and extract into the top chamber for a delicious brew product.

Last, but not least, consider a small Turkish coffee pot to take with you. You can brew this over your campfire with hot water and very finely ground coffee beans. Once it brews, let the grounds settle to the bottom of the container so that you will be able to drink your dark and delicious cup of Joe.

This is just one more reason why we can thank God for nature - when we can face the morning with a fresh cup of Joe!
