Horse shit. My Pawpaw had the Stanley version 40 years ago. Don't act like your daddy didn't have that green bottle rolling around in his truck when you were a little guy.
Thank you! I appreciate this so much. I do not drink coffee, never developed an appreciation for it, and did not want to have a coffeemaker as it would rarely be used.
I thought about getting a French press. I also like the idea of getting away from everything needing a plug and outlet.
This sounds like an ad but I'm serious, I never knew how to use a French press so that intimidated me. Mr. Rollins you have explained it so clearly I'm gonna get one. Thanks again 🤗
I used both, well when I was in the military we had cowboy coffee I loved until I got a French press. Oddly enough, when we had it, it was hobo coffee lol.
I think the difference in “richness” is due to the never washed coffee pot. Just saying…. Once, while staying at my cousins, I got up to make coffee. That pot was filthy! It took me over an hour of scrubbing and cleaning to get that pot, filter, and basket looking like new. I thought I was going to get run out of the house when they saw their sparkling clean coffee machine. Who knew that coffee got it’s flavor from years of residue?
I normally drink french press coffee. 60 grams of course ground french roast to one liter of spring water. But when I tried cowboy coffee with the same ratio it was nearly identical. Either way you will never go back to drip or Keurig. Nasty.
Cowboy coffee is good for dark or burnt roasted mid to cheap quality beans that are bought in large volume, pre ground and are not quite fresh, but last longer due to the dark roasting. These are more for comfort and energy than flavor, the harsh brewing method hides the non-freshness and flatness in taste of this type of coffee. Best coffee is always with the quality of beans, sourcing and preparation. For top quality single origin beans you want a light to mid roast from a seasoned roaster and not from grocers, grind them right before brewing (best to consume at 1-3 weeks from roast date) and brew with a french press or filter/ drip.
Skip the cowboy coffee brand. Community coffee is located in the city (New Orleans) that imports almost all of the damned coffee coming into the country. They have their pick of the best beans before others get their leavings. The best example I can give of how much coffee is here is a warehouse that caught fire while storing green bean coffee made the city smell of coffee for a week. On any given day there is about a year worth of coffee stored here as green bean because it stores so long. Community is not that overly burnt roast of Starbucks. It’s gourmet taste for an every day price. Get their hotel blend. That crap can sit on a burner for a very long time before it’s getting the bitter burned taste. It’s what I buy for the work lunchroom coffee pot. Everyone fusses when I forget and we have to use other brands. As for brewing, an old fashioned drip pot is the best (ceramic coated iron pot with a built in metal filter) Add a pinch of salt to the water, especially if your water is hard. Cleaned egg shell can do the same. Metal filters taste better than paper. But paper concentrates a particular compound that is good for your heart.

Thanks!
More plastic in my coffee 😂
I can't imagine that Yeti french press is worth a 1/10th of what they are charging for it.
I make cowboy coffee daily

Yeti stuff made in China. I don't want my food or drink in such stuff.
Yeti believes in taking people's guns away so I won't buy their products

Yeti-$1,200.00😂
Love the cowboy coffee for sure….difficult building the camp fire every time I want a cup though…French Pressed is way more convenient, I’d say.

Many years ago, my "Mr. Coffee" burned up… that same day, I found Cowboy Kent, and saw the original "Cowboy Coffee".
I've never used a coffee maker again.
The filter helps remove poison from the bug/weed killers
They’re both great. I feel like both methods brings the out of the beans.
please don't boil your coffee.
French press not bad
Which coffee you recommend?

Man I love this dude's style.
Yep I use to drink cowboy coffee ☕️ 😋
Hi from Kenai Alaska BTW.
personally, i prefer cowboy coffee over french press
the boiling takes all of the acidity out, which is a big plus for me since coffee brewed in certain ways gives me heartburn
