When we got out new trailer and we're emptying out the old one, I realized I actually had three different mehods available to make coffee: perk, drip and Keurig. Since we always camp with power, I got rid of the perk, and usually use the Keurig. But the smell of fresh perked coffee being made over an old-style Coleman stove brings back a lot of memories.

Cheapest Mr Coffee in Walmart. We also carry an old time perker that is used to heat water for tea and an be used as it's intended, to perk coffee.

I make mine sort of like the French press method, but without the press. I have a 16 ounce carafe to which I add 2 heaping TBS of ground coffee. I then fill it with water just off the boil, give it a stir and screw on the lid. Wait about 4 minutes, give it another stir, then strain through a fine-mesh strainer into my cup. Actually makes pretty good coffee.

I confess. I own a Coleman campfire coffee maker but prefer to ise my Keurig because I'm too impatient when I want/need a cup-o-joe.

I boil water on the stove then pour it slowly through the standard household coffee maker. Fill to the top of the filter line, then close and let drip.... Repete.

We just switched back to French press. The super automatic espresso machine wasn't cutting it. And we can use the French press when we don't have power. Beans are ground with a Baratza Encore.

Because there are nearly 300 replies to this question, I suspect this is a repeat. I mean just how many different ways can you make coffee? I hate the clean up. So it's instant in the microwave for me.

check out jiva cubes (yes its spelled correctly). They make coffee into bouillon like cubes that just get dropped into hot water and dissolve in about 30 seconds for good hot coffee. They have flavors if anyone is into those as well. We use them in the RV and while backpacking. super light and small but satisfying...

I use an Aero-press. I can make my coffee as strong as I like and I don't have to start the genny if I'm dry camping.

I'm another supporter of the aeropress, the convenience is great, but the flavor is the real reason to use it.

Tried the aeropress and couldn't get used to it. Went to a French Press and I like it!

So simple mad at myself for not thinking of it while boondocking! Bought a cheap Mr. Coffee for when we have power. Not going to turn on the genny just for coffee. Been buying the Starbucks Via's or the instant cappuccino stuff.

Country Mouse I found that when using starbucks via coffee the flavor is much better if you actually boil the coffee for 30 s to a minute. Sounds odd, but it makes the coffee taste better

No fancy-shmancy coffee maker for me. The DW picked up a vintage Regal electric 2-4 cup percolator and some Maxwell House breakfast blend coffee and I'm a happy guy.
