I always use my old trusty percolator coffee pot when camping. Pretty much the same thing and yes it’s good.

My grandma introduced me to coffee when I was about 5 years old. She poured her coffee in a saucer to cool it off,added her evaporated milk from a can,a little sugar and then let me sip it. Wonderful memory grandma.

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

@@Speedoflight671 what a great memory to hold ☺️

[@AmandaWebb-tg9vz]

Marlo, you just taught an old Aussie shiela something new, I’ll be giving it a crack, cheers

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Awesome and I hope you enjoy it ☺️☕️

[@BarryRosen-io6jh]

Good coffee and relaxing sounds of nature , perfect ❤❤❤❤❤ !

[@yankeeclipper4326]

Looks like a delicious Cuppa there, Marlo! My only regret is watching this at 1:30 in the morning because now I really want some coffee, lol. Cracked me up at the end!

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Cowboy coffee gets you moving at any hour. Lol. Hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend ☺️☕️

[@myronn511]

[@thenaturemanadventures]

Saweeeeet coffee ☕ I can smell the wonderful scent brewing mmmm ahhh Oooo Yeaaaa 🤤 Soo happy you are enjoying the cup, it truly is amazing! Need to try this in the woods again soon ☕☕☕ love the sounds of nature in the background too, absolutely relaxing. Love it my friend 🤠🌲☕🍃

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

It definitely was a better brew than instant coffee any day, all day. Thank you for checking it out my friend ☺️🍃☕️

[@bonniebrower8561]

OooO I'm gonna have to try this! That skipping in the beginning...Priceless! Have fun out there 😁

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Hope you like it and have a great rest of the week ☺️☕️

[@C4Explore]

Nicely done! I cheersed you with my morning coffee, and the cup hit the like button!! 👍😉 I've had "over a campfire" coffee, and it's definitely better than the mass produced designer stuff; I'll have to try this recipe...pop it down, jack me up, shoot me out, flyin' down the highway!! Loved this tutorial, I'm sure you know it, but you're so funny, it's a joy to watch your videos. 😊❤ Thank you for this, for taking us with you, be safe out there, and have a great day (and another cup of coffee ☕)!

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

@@C4Explore cheers ☕️☕️☕️☕️ Thats my limit of caffeine for the day 🤪 I can’t be too serious. Life is too short for that and so am I. Lol. IM glad i tried coffee this way and will definitely do it again. I appreciate you checking this out and make sure you have a seatbelt on and your tray in the upright position when consuming cowboy coffee 😜

[@C4Explore]

@@ExplorewithmeMarloC LOL, that's the best way to be...my mother knew the day I was born that I'd be destined to make others laugh; when the doctor put me in her arms, the first thing she said was, "Huh, what a funny lookin kid!" Ohhh, I kid, I tease, I duck bottles when I tell that joke...😏😁😉 The pleasure was all mine, very educational and fun video, I'll have to have a cowboy coffee day soon, and make sure I know my exits, and to use my seat as a flotation device in the event of a water landing! ☕️😵‍💫🤣

[@MidwestFlesh]

YEEEE HAWW! Another great video!

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Thank ya kindly.. yeee haww 🫵🏻☕️

[@tresannrn8454]

Hey Gal…. Great video!! Now that you’ve shown us the technique… Will most definitely try it. In thinking about the cowboys… over time our need for convenience has ruined our coffee… go figure… right? I like your caffeinated self… lmao… skip in and run out!! Thank you as always…. I love my cup o’ Joe… for sure!! Thank you for keeping me company on Sundays.. I appreciate you My Friend!!✌️🙂❤️ yeah….. coffee is very personal!😜

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

It really does make a better brew and definitely fun to try. People like their coffee in different ways so to try it this way, the traditional way was so cool. We over complicate everything these days… the caffeine definitely kicked in to high gear as well 😆 Always appreciate you my friend and hope you had a great memorial day weekend ☺️🫵🏻💚☕️🍃

[@El_Croc]

Buzzing! That aroma destroys any pretence at stealth, but so worth it.

[@AmericanExplorer]

Hey Marlo! I see you've taken up magic! The famous chair finally realized who was boss! 😆 I had heard of cowboy coffee but never knew what it was other than possibly making a form of coffee when no coffee was available. Obviously that's not what it is. I'm not exactly a coffee connoisseur and don't drink it very often. Even then, I have to have it flavored with Cafe Mocha creamer and sugar. I definitely learned some things about cowboy coffee. First, I learned what it actually was, lol! I also didn't have any idea that the coarseness of the coffee had any bearing on it. When you explained it, it made sense though to my non-coffee-connoisseur self! I've never had coffee out in the wilderness, but the couple of times my parents and I went, coffee was made in a little enamel camp coffee pot and it smelled sooooooo good! Coffee was made at home all the time, but it smelled much better out in nature, so I don't doubt it tasted better. It's always been interesting to me that anything cooked in the outdoors always tastes better than at home, even plain ol' hotdogs! One last thing. You're going to have to cut back on the cowboy coffee. It had you literally bouncing off the trees! 🤣 I really enjoyed this video! I'm glad you finally got out there without a woodchipper and chainsaws going, everybody at the local airport deciding to fly all at the same time, fleets of trucks going by, and every train in the northeast passing by! 😆Thank you again for sharing sweet friend, looking forward to next time! ☕🌳🐦👊👍

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

When i did that chair edit, i thought about you!!! Lol!! Truth! 🤣 it’s easier to get the seat on but i still struggle and fight with it. I was always hesitant to make coffee this way because I thought it would be crunchy and never knew how much water or coffee to use. Those old enamel coffee pots are gold if you got one.. they cook up the coffee the best. Adult zoomies are a reality with this coffee… get er done!!! Lol!!! Hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend my friend and thank you for checking this out. Yeeeeeeee Hawwwwww 🤠☕️🤠 It was a treat to be out here without all the usual background noises for sure, lol. 😅

[@AmericanExplorer]

​@@ExplorewithmeMarloC The Fightin' Folding Chair = Dirk! It sounds like you'll never see a folding chair the same again! 🤣 I'm sure my parents kept the enamel coffee pot. I just haven't found it yet, but I still a lot of stuff to go through so I'm sure it's there somewhere. Probably in the kitchen somewhere. When I do find, that's one of the things that's definitely staying with me. I thought that coffee looked like it could stir itself and get up and walk afterwards! The adult zoomies confirm that! 😆 I hope you had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend too! 🪖👍

[@talesfromthenarcside8543]

Coffee always tastes better in the woods 🪵

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Absolutely facts ☕️🍃

[@kimglass4851]

Ive had cowboy coffee several times on camping trips. Mine always had grounds floating so I wasnt a big fan. Try Irish coffee sometime! Now that is some ass kicken coffee!! Happy Memorial weekend Marlo!! 💜🥣☕🦋☘

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

I’ll try Irish coffee.. it sounds delicious. Think of the grounds as crunchy flavor crystals.. lol. Thank you for checking this out Kim and hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend 😀🫵🏻☕️🤠🖤

[@peterrobino9383]

I had a cup of cowboy coffee this morning from Dunkin. When I got to the bottom it was loaded with coffee grounds.

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Ugh!!! That’s one more reason to ditch Dunkin 🤮 the prices and the 50/50 shot of hopes & prayers they made it right, the other.

that coffee looks strong but i assume it tastes better than drip coffee? i enjoyed this a lot. I like the buzz you had from the coffee after you drank it too. great video marlo and I look forward to your next one. stay safe dear.

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Not as strong tasting as you may think. No bitterness or aftertaste. Thank you so much for checking this out ☺️🫵🏻☕️

[@diggindiggenit6540]

Amazing footage and presentation, I wish i was their to try the coffee, i personally would bring green beans and roast them in a pan then hand grind them, the smell of fresh roasted coffee to me is wall ah, I am going to roast some today thanks for the coffee pump, can't wait.

[@jamesdavies6342]

27:33 that's some serious coffee 😂

I use a small esbit pressure coffee maker on a low light, makes awesome coffee

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Thank you for that info/tip

[@leemuir2514]

Can't use mine now as we have a ban on using hexi over here, 2 years jail for anyone found in possession of it. If you got a p o box I'll gladly send it to you rather than throwing it away

[@savagewolf1966]

Oh yeah,the salt trick works, though it was going to be too much coffee so cut back a little I don't like it too strong! Put a little cold water in after brewing not much.turned out to be one of the best coffee's I've had. 🔥👊👍

[@flapjack9495]

I love the feel of this video - coffee in the woods sounds so good right about now! I haven't tried cowboy coffee yet but I'm going to give it a try soon. Are those New England woods you're in? I'm in western MA and they look very much like the woods around here.

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

Coffee is best enjoyed outside in nature. Definitely try it out,, you may like it. Yes you are correct, im in Massachusetts. Thank you for checking this out.

[@SixShooter1]

Love the cowboy coffee way and I use Arbuckles course ground. Oh also I am from Scituate, MA

[@randomperson8695]

"I like an extremely, nearly unnatural hot cup of coffee" OMG, you people with a leather gullet make no sense to me. It's like saying your favorite part of a hot slice of pizza is the part where it burns the roof of your mouth. That said, I really enjoyed the video, Marlo. I hope you enjoy the rest of your Memorial Day weekend. Too bad the weather is supposed to be bad here in the northeast tomorrow, on the other hand, doing chores at home is still better than doing tasks at work. Have fun.

[@ExplorewithmeMarloC]

I happen to love a hot cup of coffee 🔥 id rather sip a hot, flavorful cup than lukewarm. Thank you for checking this out and have a great week

[@baronedipiemonte3990]

You can do it on the stove top in a sauce pan, or in the microwave in a Tupperware container. Every morning and evening... and drink it out of a GI canteen cup. BTW how's your Dragoon Unlimited tent ? Just ordered one.

[@stevexray6253]

Coffee and tea are necessary for your brain but right now I'm having a Beck's non alcoholic. 😁👍👀

[@TheRealWanderingMan]

I really think you'd like the Lolo National forest in Montana.

[@UrbanTacticalSurvival]

Yes there is nothing better than a good cup of coffee in the morning, two things 1. I would never put my pack on the ground, I always hang it from a tree, 2. I always use a coffee strainer when making cowboy coffee because they say you should pour some cold water on top of the coffee in the pot to make the coffee grounds drop to the bottom of the pot well that’s BS I use the strainer to keep the grounds from getting in my cop.

The filter is a nice idea but its easier if you just use a cotton cloth fine weave, (like bandana) rinse and re-use no waste and faster pouring. Been doing that almost 70 years. JUST HISTOTY: There is no such thing as cowboy coffee! For those of you truly interested in the culture of coffee, cowboy coffee is a misnomer. Cowboys were not introduced into the American culture until the 1860s. Coffee, however, was introduced to the Americas historically by Captain John Smith, founder of Jamestown in 1607. In all probability, according to the research I have been able to do, they probably cooked it the same way that we now attribute to cowboys, boiling it or cooking it like tea and then drinking it. While it may seem romantic, when camping, to call it cowboy coffee, it ain't! You could just as easily call it James coffee, Cooks coffee, Jamestown coffee, or just what my grandpa did, boiled coffee. Unless, of course, you percolated it, which was the only other primary method of making it in the 1880s, and later, modern methods were introduced. But no matter how you make it, enjoy it for what it's worth! If you want some really fresh coffee in the woods, watch the video by Beckham Outdoors titled smoothbores & Small Game timestamp at 6:21. That is the way my Grandpa's taught me to make it outdoors in the mid 1950's. Can't get no fresher.

[@jaygentile5202]

Idk ive had it but man sugar,cream and milk are my downfalls

[@paulblubaugh589]

Filtering the coffee is exactly what cowboys did, they would filter it through their neckerchiefs into a tin cup.

[@mrdave777]

I like you Marlo. I can see why viewers want to spend time with you. But there are individuals like me who are ADHD. I see the title and curious about the coffee. Just not the attention span to spend 30m. Would you consider shorter videos, or “shorts” in general? Not all videos, just some? Thanks!

Good morning and thanks for coming by. I do shorts on instagram and tik tok. Feel free to either check those out or maybe utilize the fast forward option? Thanks for your time.
