Cowboy coffee
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cowboy Coffee is coffee brewed without special devices, filters, or tools. Because no special equipment is needed to brew this type of coffee, it is often made by campers.
[edit] Preparation
In general, water is heated to near boiling temperature, ground coffee is added, and the mixture is stirred. When the grounds sink, the unfiltered product is consumed. The amount of coffee added largely depends upon the strength desired, the amount of water added to it, and the size of the vessel used. Additionally, the coffee grounds tend to absorb a small amount of water while settling.
