Going camping does not mean you have to go without your early morning cup of coffee.   Take a look.

Title: Coffee Making Options For the Campers Among Us

Author: Anthony Chatfield

In the vast and terrifyingly diverse world of coffee makers,
there are a few situations in which you might find yourself that
warrant a new purchase; road trips, a new job, or the ever gear
conscious camping trip. If you're heading into the woods for a
few days and plan on waking up at the crack of dawn to watch the
sun rise, catch a trout, or take a hike through dangerous
terrain, you might want to be awake first. For that, you'll need
some good old fashioned coffee.

Your coffee options when camping are no worse than any other
time in your life, whatever you may think. It's possible to buy
and bring with you a full service coffee maker designed to plug
into a car battery, run on batteries, or heat up over a fire.
It's all in how much of a 'roughin it' kind of camper you want
to be.

The first thing you'll want to do is decide what you need. If
you think you'll be bringing along an entire troupe of friends
and family, you might want to spring for a full service campers'
espresso maker. If you're not interested in the slew of options
that one of these might offer, you can go for something simpler.
Coleman offers a 2-3 cup machine that will actually fit nicely
on top of your camp stove. The basket opens right up and the
filter pops in and out easily.

Then there's the option of the one cup coffee makers. Coleman
makes one in the same line as their larger brewers, but with a
simpler, single cup method. With this model you have the option
of buying one that fits on your stove, or if you're driving into
the woods, plugging it directly into your car for a quick cup of
coffee. The options are great because on a cold morning, waiting
for the coffee to brew, a couple minutes warming up inside your
car might just be that much more enjoyable than freezing over a
camp stove.

Of course, for the purists among you, there's always the good
old fashioned percolator. From the days of the great plains and
wild west cattle runs, a simple coffee pot style percolator will
fit nicely over your fire and brew one strong cup of coffee to
get you up and running in the morning.

The options, like any other aspect of your coffee drinking life,
are immense. When deciding what you want to purchase for your
trip into the wilderness, it's simply a matter of how you might
like to spend your time and who you'll be spending it with.
