WAYS TO MAKE GOOD COFFEE WHILE CAMPING:
Collapsible Pour-Over Coffee Makers: A collapsible pour-over method is indeed a great option for anyone who loves to make pour-over coffee at home. It requires minimal space and has less weight. You need to simply pop open the silicone model and place a filter inside. Find a way to boil water and pour hot water over your grounds. When you are done lift your filter out of pour-over, and with a quick rinse, fold it up.
- Submersible filter helps:
My next suggestion is that use the submersible filter method. Making coffee this way works. These submersible filters are extremely light and are also good for brewing tea. But like the previous option, you need to find something to boil your water. Then place a filter full of grounds into your camping mug and pour the hot water. Wait for a couple of minutes for everything to extract, and then remove the filter and sip your coffee. This option is super convenient, but it is a little bulky to pack.
- Pour-Over Travel Mug is your savior:
My next pick is the pour-over travel mug. These mugs combine many of the great features of a simple pour-over into one, but these are less portable and expensive. You still need to boil your water separately. Post this you have to pour water over your grounds in the same what as a typical pour-over. A few pour-overs come with steel mesh filters so that you do not have to bring along any filters or deal with used ones. As a bonus, there is a travel mug that helps in keeping your coffee hot.

- Camping Pour-Over is a good option:
When you are camping with a pour-over setup, this option works the best. There is a whole range of pour-over contraptions which have been designed to be used in the outdoors. It is simply a good option for coffee enthusiasts who love a fancier coffee arrangement in the morning. These super cool pour-over options fit most cups. But make sure that everything is solidly in place before you begin to pour. You can find this on Amazon or other online platforms.
- Have you heard about Percolator?
Have you seen or heard about Percolator? You must have seen this option in a western movie. It is a great option for anyone who is looking for something stronger; than just a drip coffee. Percolators are a good option to brew something almost similar to expresso and dripping coffee. But these options are a little bit difficult to pack. The process with a Percolator is very easy. You need to fill the bottom chamber with water initially. Then place the basket on the top of the water and screw the top chamber of everything. When you place the contraption over a flame, water from the bottom will rise through the coffee grounds, and coffee will begin to fill the upper chamber.

- Brew bags are love:
When you are looking for a simple yet easy option, brew bags are loved. It is a great option for summer trips when we are sweating. It is also a great option for anyone who wants to drink coffee throughout the day. It is very convenient to carry them while traveling. These bags can be filled then again used the next day. These bags are incredibly light and easy to pack. But this option only works when you can accommodate a longer brewing time.
- Cowboy Coffee is a miracle:
It is one of the oldest and classical options we have while camping. It is called a ‘cowboy’ machine because it is very reliable and simple to make. In this method, you need to boil water and toss it in your coffee grounds. Then stir the mixture and let it boil for a few minutes. When your coffee is extracted pour it carefully in a mug. While camping, some people recommend bringing the coffee to a coil and cracking an egg into it all. This egg will quickly cool and bring all the coffee grounds together.

- Instant coffee, anyone?
While all these options are great, they are a bit difficult to pull off while camping. So, for this, instant coffee is a decent option while camping. Instant coffee has gotten better in recent years, and it is easy to find options that pack in the flavor. While all the above options are great, but instant coffee is an incredibly easy option.
We hope that this list of the best coffee brewing methods for camping will help to make your camping much more memorable. Rest easy knowing that no matter what option you end up choosing, at least you will be caffeinated.
