French Press Coffee

Today is Native American Day/Columbus Day and I was thinking about some of the things that may have been brought over or shared.  That got me thinking about all those westerns where they are sitting around the fire drinking coffee and eating some sort of stew.

Ever go camping and want coffee but don't want to take the coffee pot?  Or in your early morning haze broke the coffee pot? Or maybe you like to do things the old fashioned way.  Well today's recipe is how to make coffee without a coffee pot. 

French Press Coffee

1. Fill a pan with water and turn on the heat. Use a little more water than you would normally use when making coffee, since some of it is going to get left behind.

2. When the water's boiling, add your coffee. The amount of coffee you need will vary, but aim for two tablespoons of coffee for every six ounces of water you use.

3. Kill the heat immediately, cover the pan, and wait until all of the grounds settle at the bottom — it will take four to five minutes.

4. You're done: Just slowly pour the coffee off the top or ladle it into cups, and you're all set.
