The smell of coffee in the mountains is sooooo good.

After 35+ years of overlanding, I have to go with the Aeropress. It does require a little round paper filter and it only makes a single cup, but the clean-up only takes a few seconds and I can control the strength of every cup.

Surprised the Aeropress didn’t make the list.

5 ways to make coffee at camp 1) AeroPress 2) AeroPress 3) AeroPress 4) AeroPress 5) AeroPress In all seriousness, match the grind to your brew method. This is THE most important factor in brewing coffee.

@@Wrangzilla Personally, I'd go for the AeroPress over the AeroPress

I grew up when the percolator was the only means that I knew of that I saw my dad and uncle and all their sisters make coffee with, and they were all big, big coffee drinkers, and it taste different from straining it through an electric coffee maker much like the Coleman you have here. I don't know what it is about the percolator, but it makes the coffee taste so much different! I've never even seen the French Press until seeing it in some of your videos. I think one of the things about the electric coffee makers is the timers. People could set a time early in the morning for it to start brewing, just before getting up in the morning, so it is ready to go, especially for people who want to rest a few extra minutes and still have coffee for their drive to work! I personally have never been a big coffee drinker, but my dad and all my aunts and uncle were! I do like the smell of coffee being brewed! It's pretty satisfying just to smell coffee being brewed! It must be pretty popular here in Oklahoma, because Lowe's and Wal-Mart have all kinds of selections or different kinds of percolators! It's always nice to smell coffee in the morning! Kind of like a wood camp fire! The smell of some Oak or Pecan or Maple burning is pretty satisfying when you are around it to stay warm!

I've been using the Coleman drip for about 15 years. Works great. It's come in handy several times at home when the power went out.

Percolated coffee really just hits different. I put it through a mesh filter after brewing to make it super smooth, and oh man it's good.

Thanks for the great video. But the most important part is when you notice your excitement that your child is present and helping you make the video. Living these experiences as a family is the most important thing in life. Congratulations.

Welcome home Jordan, and thank you both for your service. Very excited for you to get your Jeep, can't wait to see the video and what you pick! I just traded my '02 TJ for a '16 75th Anniversary JKU, Sarge Green. Love it!

Served aboard the USS Ranger CV-61 in the late 60's & 70's and the coffee was basically brown water. Black Rifle is some of the best coffee I have had and the specialty coffee they offer through subscription that is whole bean that you grind has been outstanding and highly recommended. Enjoy your videos and your insight into traveling and products. Safe travels!

Love Black Rifle Coffee!!

I'm always learning something new on this channel. Great video.

Thank you! I am going camping with my friends this spring, and I needed ideas to make coffee while camping. because we are ALL coffee drinkers, and my task is, well, make coffee at the camp! ☕️ I am definitely getting my percolator ❤

Percolator had always been my go to. Not having to worry about damaging anything offroad and makes a great brew!

best part about your videos I keep going back for refreshers and or when I look for something specific!

trailrecon never disappoints with the videos! Just what I was looking for to decide what I want to bring to camp to get the morning started right

Thank you this really helped me decide which coffee brewing method to use for 3 adults who tend to want more than one cup each morning! Going to get me a large percolator

I have an EZ Way coffee maker cup, I had many years and love it! It's basically a bottom section that sits on the mug with a metal mesh filter in it where you put the coffee. Then you put the cup section in that and fill it with your hot water. The water then makes it's way into the bottom section with the coffee grind and through the mesh filter, into your mug. It's okay that it makes one cup of coffee at a time, as I don't have friends or family to share the coffee with. It's just me.

Great tips for getting started in the morning. Thank you.

I prefer Cowboy coffee, hot water in pour in coffee grounds, Boil to a rolling boil for 4 minutes turn heat off proud cold water in spout and center of pot. The cold water will drive the grounds to the bottom ....best coffee for easy out door cooking although I make mine ever other morning , nothing wrong with day old coffee just heat up. Cowboys been drinking that kind of coffee for year and still do. Don’t need no stinking coffee maker ...lol Poppa Jones , Scottsdale Arizona

Wacaco expresso maker is simply the best for expresso! Best thing first thing while watching the morning sun come up 👍☕

Nothing better in life than morning coffee at camp. Awesome to see im not the only one that enjoys this. Love your videos brad. Keep up the good work!

Bialetti moka express with espresso coffee. That's the way I roll. Nice vid!

Agree perk is the best sometimes I even pull it out at home to get that camp feel. Trick I have learned is to use a paper basket filter in my perk and just stab the perk spout threw it, helps keep the grinds out of the coffee but the big thing is it makes cleanup on the perk way faster. Another thing to consider when peeking is most fast methods require boiling water first and that’s the part that takes the perk time so always worth it IMO only way to make a camp coffee

Thx for both you and your sons service from another coffee aficionado

Good video Brad, gotta have that coffee on the trail for sure brother. Congrats on the E3, I signed up to check it out, sounds like some cool stuff coming.

This is a fun coincidence, I just uploaded a review of my Espro Travel Press! I love this thing 👊 Coffee is something to get before winch and lightbar for overlanding 😂

By far the French press is the best. I had the Coleman coffee maker but I have never had a slower coffee maker ever. It took about a half hour each pot. Great vid.

I’d be craving a coffee if I was downwind from you. Nice job Brad!!

FOR COFFEE LOVERS, the day doesn't just begin with a good, hot cup of coffee-it seems almost impossible without it. It's not only the dose of caffeine that does the trick, although that does help. It's also the ritual that surrounds it-the smell, the sound, even the wait are all a part of how coffee gets the day started right.

French press is what I've been using at camp for years now. I like the results. It tastes great every time.

Instant is the way to go. Love it out on the trail

I've been doing the Starbucks instant packets for years. Found it traveling in Indonesia. I think they where testing there as I had not seen them before elsewhere. It's not my favorite either (french press!) but a good tip to make it better is to mix a dark and a medium roast to get better favorite. It's hard to beat on the go...

Thank you. Very helpful. I’m tired of the instant stuff

Man, I’m also a coffee freak.... When I’m hunting or camping I’m that guy making the good cup of coffee for everyone in camp.... Everybody knows they are having a greater tasting cup of coffee when I’m around. Coffee, Jeeps and friends the best combo!!

Love the perk over the fire and the french press. But when I am walking, hiking to you guys, I like to throw some grinds straight into the pot, delish.

I've waited years for this video!!!

Boil water in coffee pot, add coffee, let it steep for a few minutes. Pick up coffee pot, windmill it 5 or 6 times. Gently pour it into cup, not to disturb the grounds. Now you've got you a genuine cup of cowboy coffee.

Best cup of joe was brewed at sea down in the engine room or before going on watch in Damage Control Central... good stuff!!! I am looking forward to being apart of the E3 Team!

Brad...I loved this video...my favorite subject...COFFEE...LOL...I understand the need for the first cup in the morning from an EMS perspective...I am an EMR and when I have to get up and go in for a shift...its the first stop on the way to the station...looking forward to seeing the build for your son's Jeep. Between you and Kevin and Brittany...I am thinking about getting a jeep...I currently own an older model of the Grand Cherokee...but there's something about a 4 door wrangler and all you can do to it...take care VA3MED.

The small perculater you sales your have had for s long time, what brand is that if your don't mind sharing?

Thank you!

I used to take it for granted that camp coffee was always terrible. In retrospect, it was generally percolated coffee that had been left on too long, until it was burned/bitter. But then a friend brought a coffee press on a camping trip. I now make coffee at home with a press, and I have a stainless steel press that I take (car) camping. But for backpacking, I use the individual packets of instant coffee from Starbucks.

Need one of those cups!

How did I miss this one?? Love the coffee options on the trail. I'm mostly an instant coffee while out camping, it's just the easiest option. If I have more time I'll do the percolator.
