Subject:Campfire coffee, was: Heater for Winter Camping

Well, we actually use an old style campfire coffee pot on our Westy stove.
Not the type with the little perc basket, but the REAL old style...Pour in
coffee, Pour in water, Boil until it smells right (about 10 minutes), let
settle 1 minute, pour in cup. Mmmmmmm. Brush teeth afterward, or else you
look like you've never been to the dental hygienist.

 Boy, I gotta side with Jeff, and his wee heater. We've done it both ways,
 and it sure is a lot nicer to get back from a hike to a cozy cocoon at 70
 degrees, >>

Thanks. Plus, without the electric hookup, where are you going to plug in
the
coffee pot?      Jeff S.

PS- And I don't want  any flames from anyone about heaters and coffee pots,
or even TV's- after all, if you're a true die hard, you wouldn't be camping
in a Westy, but in a tent-or under the stars with just a sleeping bag.
