You best be glad your mouth is sore, cause it is about to get a lot more sooorrrreeeerrrrrrrr.....lol.  Matt, I think you are on to something.  I bet if I set up a stand where I was last year, I could get ride of a lot of coffee the first thing in the morning, don't you think?  And for anyone at the classic, it would be my pleasure to make a pot of coffee and share a cup with you, all you have to do is ask.

usually with a french press, you need a coarse grind so that it doesn't just go right through the screen. A manual grinder is the best for this since the burr can be easily adjusted.

I am looking for a manual grinder as I go places.  I did get a burr grinder for now, and will grind my measurements out as I decide how much I want to use to get the taste I want.  Lots of trial and error to get the best taste, but in the long run, well worth it.  And I can take my pre-measured coffee amounts where ever I go, and just boil some water and be done with it.

Why is it, that ANY coffee no matter how You make it either by the fire or on a Coleman stove is the BEST in the world ? When the tent is pitched and the Dining fly is up, I generally make a pot - UUUUUMMMMM ! Bob

Hey Charlie I didn't even put up a stand and it was no problem to get rid of a couple of pots each day. Ron

I am a hardcore caffeine addict.

I don't bother with coffee when hunting. I bring caffeine pills. Take two when I wake up and away I go.

I made coffee this morning and substituted Red Bull for the water. 

I hear colors and smell sounds now!

My buddy brought some Starbucks Via sinlgle serving instant micro-ground coffee on an elk hunt. Was shocked at how good it was for instant coffee. Very minimal space in the pack. I use a French press at work and standard ground coffee works fine. The Melita filter funnels work nicely too.

Nuthin fancy here.  Mr. coffee at the house.  A blue tin camp pot.  Folgers regular grind.  Oh and I have become addicted to hazelnut creamer....  that stuff is worse than crack.
