Q. Im going camping this weekend and i would love to impress eveyone in the morning by making coffee over a fire, i want to use real coffee beans not expresso. I have no idea how to do it or what type of beans to use??
A. turkish coffee--one heaping tsp of ground beans (i suggest you grind the beans at home in a grinder unless you want to do it by hand, in which case you will need to use a mortar and pestle) per cup of water, plus one additional tsp of grounds. add the grounds to your pot, pour the water over, then pour in additional water (like if you're making 5 cups of coffee, use one additional cup) to make up for that which the grounds will absorb. i'm assuming you'll have a grill over your fire, if not, stack some rocks among the coals to support the pot so that you won't have to hold the pot the whole time. bring the water Just to a boil--don't let it boil for more than a moment or it'll get bitter.
remove from heat as soon as it begins to boil. at this point, you can pour it through a filter or you can just wait for the grounds to settle to the bottom and pour the coffee off the top. coffee made this way tends to be pretty strong, so you might want to experiment at home so that you can adjust the water/grounds ratio to what you're used to.
a simpler alternative would be to get a french press. if you have one of those, all you need is to boil the water and pour it over the grounds in the decanter.
hope this helps
p.s., it doesn't matter what sort of beans you use, just that they be ground up. bean choice is a matter of preference. most people like french roast.
