True about finding em pots..... Hard. I lucked out, my good ol buddy who passed left it for me as he knew I live coffee, ever since I've been drinking coffee like this...... May the gods bless his soul. Good friend & greatly missed. I sit out by our usual spot & drink coffee in his honor.❤
Making coffee with an old school all steel percolator watching the snow fall near the Old West Owyhee Mountains in Idaho and watching these cowboy coffee videos. Love it.
I have a glass top stove and I make my coffee on that. When it starts to boil I just move it off the heat and I get fabulous coffee. I make 12 cups at a time drink two, and put the rest into a mason jar for the next few days. I used to make cold brew and it took three times the amount of coffee to get a decent taste. So you can enjoy the coffee on any heat source.
I just made some of this today. And it is really good and smooth coffee. No bitterness at all. And pouring in the cold water does help with getting no grounds. I used putting the cold water in it and I had absolutely not one single ground in my coffee.
Yes sir it works every time. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. I’m glad it worked for you. The best way to make coffee for sure. Thanks again!
I have been drinking coffee since it was put in my bottle! I learned something new today and when I go clean the grounds out of the stove top pot where I just made coffee the next pot will have the percolator insides are coming out! Thank you for this! Over the past year I’ve come to really like a pour over because of the seemingly richer flavor and I have no doubt this will be so much better! Thank you for not pouring out the second cup. Watching the first one get poured out hurt a little.
Thank you for your kind words and thank you so much for watching and commenting. It is no doubt the best way to make coffee. Pour over is a good one as well. I am with you though it’s hurtful to watch someone pour out a good cup of coffee lol. Have a great day and God bless.
Man I had watched Kent Rollins video but thanks to you I realize it’s not just cowboy coffee, it’s campfire coffee! I needed to know how to have some coffee when I go camping with my daughter and her American Heritage Girls church troop! I already had an enameled/speckled coffee pot, it was funny when you said take out the percolator thing and toss it cause you don’t need it! And you’re right, just made some tonight and I’m like where has this been all my life? The electric coffee maker might be out of a job! Then I realized all the old cowboy shows and movies I grew up on always had a metal coffee pot like this next to the campfire! I knew there had to be an easy way to make coffee at the campsite without all these modern gadgets! I love the supply list, fire, water, coffee, and a pot! I’ll just do this! Thanks!! (Btw I like Kent but your video was much quicker and straight forward!)
Thank you for the kind words. I’m really glad you are making it and are loving it. It is by FAR the best way to make coffee. Thank you so much for watching!
Awesome video on making cowboy coffee, absolutely love the video. Hurt my heart seeing you pour that coffee out lol. Thanks for sharing have a blessed day.
That’s the only way I drink coffee, getting a 20 cup kettle even though is just me to prevent boil overs by filling it less. Lol I’m crazy about cowboy coffee. Great video Sir.
Here's a tip I just learned if your buying a pot. Make sure the spout is high up level with the top of the pot, otherwise you ain't going to get a full measure when it boils. Like the channel, love the content - subbed!
I’m gonna try that. It’s basically French press without the piston strainer. Those old boys knew a thing or two, and as much coffee as they drank they knew what was good. It gives the coffee a chance to fully extract all those aromatic oils and flavors with full immersion like that. I still think fresh ground beans is the way to go though. Even better would be roasting your own beans but Ive never done that. Take care
@@HorsePenRanch ,Thank you am having a cup right now👍👊,just found your channel think it's due to watching Dutch oven cooking 🍳 videos love the chuck wagon you have a new sub👊❣️
What I don't understand is why does it take dang near twice the coffee if you grind it then it does if you buy it already ground? I've been doing this for years and I don't understand why. I can take the ground coffee I just ground and put it in our coffee pot and it will come out weak if I use already ground coffee in the same exact amount it will come out pretty strong.
Thank you. They normally use water from a 30 gallon wooden water barrel to fill up the coffee pot and then boil it on the fire. So it was just an ambient temperature water. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Well yes they can. But they do for sure settle much better with room temp water in my experience. I never use cold water unless it’s cold outside. Thanks for watching!
Do what works for you. This is the way my grandma did it and it works like a charm. Give it a try sometime. That way you do have to carry filters around. Thanks for watching!
You really can’t. Before I put the grounds in, I take the boiling water off of the stove or turn the burner way down. Then I put the grounds in and when I introduce it back to heat is when it will rise up. Once it starts to rise I take it off the heat or turn the burner way down and the foam rise will go back down before it overflows. Once you do that one time it usually will roll a boil the next time you put the heat on it and you’re good to go. Hope this helps
That's it, a cup of cold water. In Australia we talk about billy tea and the trick is to swing the billy to sink the leaves but there is certainly a lot less technical jargon involved. Now back to the main question, why does cowboy culture seem to lack any adoption of indigenous knowlege unlike Australian bushcraft. Maybe you guys just had it too easy, it is a more fertile country.
Thanks for watching. Well I believe we have indigenous culture as well as Hispanic culture in bedded in cowboy culture today. From our diet to horsemanship, among other ways. Thanks for commenting!
"These type of coffee pots are hard to find - I've got about four or five of them" (maybe because you and other people are hoarding them is one of the reasons that they are hard to find). :p
Great coffee but you forgot to mention the biggest secret which is to use good fresh water. Also, I cried when you poured good coffee on the ground. How many people does a big pot serve?
Thanks for watching. Yes fresh water is important. I have been in some pickles were the best water I could get was water coming down a semi running Mountain stream. I hear ya I hate pouring out good coffee. That pot will make about 2 gallons of coffee. Thank you so much for your comment!
I just heard about Cowboy coffee, so I’m a newbie to all of this. What would you say distinguishes cowboy coffee from pour over coffee? Thank you for making this tutorial, I learned a lot!! 🤠
I like pour over as well. It has a clean crisp flavor. I would say you can make a lot of this at a time and pour over you are usually doing a cup at a time. And it’s just a different way to make coffee. You’re really boiling the coffee and in doing so a lot of the acid comes out of the coffee. So it makes a good cup of flavorful coffee. This is somewhat similar to French press but it’s not as strong and to me makes a better cup than French press makes. I’m not sure if I answered your question or just rambling on. But thank you so much for watching this video. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
I will also add this is a pretty early method in making coffee. Before roasters started roasting coffee, cookie would brown and roast the beans in iron skillet over the campfire.
@@HorsePenRanch You definitely answered my question. And thank you! Since the time I posted this comment, I have made two batches of Campfire Coffee, based off of your tutorial. I don't think I'll make it any other way! Absolutely delicious. This is a game changer for me! Thanks again! 🙏
@@JoelyPera How is it different from say regular drip coffee? I'd be curious to try this with espresso dark roasted coffee since that can have quite a bit of acid.
Just like God morals and values this is the way to make coffee and should never be change or be forgotten. This is the way my Confederate ancestors did it in the Civil war its been taught through the generations. Think about it no electricity or filters back then. This will also be easy on your stomach no heart burn or upset stomach because you boil the acid out it has to get real hot to do that.Great video thanks God bless.
I was wondering what the heck you doing man wasting coffee like that. lol. We believe that there isn't any grounds of coffee in there lol. I want to find me a kettle like that big one. But we don't live on a ranch or a camp site so. I got to say I just boiled water in my tea kettle and poured the water into a cup with coffee grounds in the cup and let it sit for a few minutes and man the flavor is really much better then the coffee pots or the Keruigs. Its just a decent cup of coffee.
That will work. I hope you’re able to find you some kind of a coffee pot. Sometimes you can find them at camping stores or Walmart and sometimes antique stores. Thanks so much for watching and good luck!
I’m not sure buddy I think it was just a regular auto drip grind. I don’t normally use Arbuckles. I actually had some for the video and decided to use it for that video. It’s hard to get here in Oklahoma and super expensive to have it shipped in.
I got it in an antique store locally here in Oklahoma. That’s where you pretty much got a find the big ones. They don’t make them anymore so you have to find them in antique stores. Just make sure they don’t have any holes in them or rusted out real bad. The small one like I said in the video you can buy on Amazon or Walmart. Thanks for watching!!
Ever tried flavored coffee? I am guessing it would strip away the flavor. Most flavored coffee tastes like chemicals anyway but Blackout Coffee makes the best.
Sometimes I add pure organic cocoa, sometimes cinnamon, or not it all depends on my mood. This is the only way I drink coffee, at home or camping cowboy coffee is my morning routine. I hate paper filters and not crazy about dripped coffee or percolator.
@@HealthHorror actually not because I’m not the nicest person before I have my coffee in the morning lol. Is the time when I can relax, I’m retired and now I can enjoy a couple of cups with serenity and I can take the extra time to make it, sit on the deck and relax listening to the birds, enjoying nature (I’m in the mountains) kind of a ritual nowadays, even though I’m very active, I solo tent camp a lot but no more rat race for me. Perhaps that’s why.
@@carmenmartinez2882 Me too. I always have the morning coffee and food planned the night before. So I have to wake up and make it in quiet.

Better than French Press due to much longer boiling time.

Hey, we are all adults here. You can’t be afraid of a few grounds. It will put hair on your chest

I can take the ground coffee I just ground and put it in our coffee pot and it will come out weak if I use already ground coffee in the same exact amount it will come out pretty strong.
I agree. It seems to take more fresh grounds than pre ground. Maybe because they coat the ground coffee? I’m not sure. Thanks for commenting.
Great video! Thanks for the info! Was wondering in the 1800’s out in the field did the cook just use tepid water instead of cold?
Thank you. They normally use water from a 30 gallon wooden water barrel to fill up the coffee pot and then boil it on the fire. So it was just an ambient temperature water. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Still helping newbies 🤠👍
Trying my best. Thanks for watching!
Arbuckle coffee is the best and you even get a peppermint stick yee haw
That’s right. Yes it’s pretty good stuff. Thanks for watching!
as for the grounds ..they will settle without making the coffee colder with cold water...Just let it sit for a few minutes .
Well yes they can. But they do for sure settle much better with room temp water in my experience. I never use cold water unless it’s cold outside. Thanks for watching!
I’m gonna make some right now 🤠
Great coffee ☕😋👌

I use drip filters. Double them up. Done right and there will be no sediment. Oh a pinch of salt.
Do what works for you. This is the way my grandma did it and it works like a charm. Give it a try sometime. That way you do have to carry filters around. Thanks for watching!
i don't even worry about grounds drink it down to the grounds and dump the last few mouthfuls out and get ya another cupful
Good stuff bro. God bless

How do you prevent the coffee from foaming right before it boils
You really can’t. Before I put the grounds in, I take the boiling water off of the stove or turn the burner way down. Then I put the grounds in and when I introduce it back to heat is when it will rise up. Once it starts to rise I take it off the heat or turn the burner way down and the foam rise will go back down before it overflows. Once you do that one time it usually will roll a boil the next time you put the heat on it and you’re good to go. Hope this helps
Make sure u leave it upside down when drying
That’s right. Another important tip. Not doing that is how rust and holes start forming. Thanks for watching.

The conversion is approximately 1/4 cup of ground coffee to 1 quart of water. But you can adjust that to your liking. Thanks for watching!
When adding the cold water to settle the grounds, do you water from the cold tap or really colf from the ice box?
Tap water will work. Thanks so much for watching!
The same water I use to make coffeee, duh . Just make sure it’s cold. I like to put some water in the freezer fir about 5 mins to get cold.
