Camp Coffee

[MikePal]

I'm actually surprised by the number of guys here who still perk coffee. It's almost a dying art.

I have no idea what the guys do at our camp, I think it's just instant. I'm rarely still in the camp by the time they haul their lazy butts out of the fart sack..HaHa.

Kicked the habit many years ago, so don't drink it out of necessity, but will have a decaf if we're out for a social breakfast.

My mentor got me on to making up a thermos of hot 'Ice Tea' mix for hunting. Sure is nice when your in the stand for 1/2 Day come Dec...

No power at the camp for electric and instant is gross.

I even make perc at home once in a while on cold dreary days

Many years ago at a yard sale,I found an old South Bend 30 cup perc that the lady seller had no idea if it still worked. I paid $2 for it,took it home,plugged it in and it worked. Off to the moose camp it with it and we still use it. I put it on a timer and at 4:30AM,the camp wakes up to fresh brewed coffee. We never have trouble rolling the guys out of the sack. Nobody can resist the aroma first thing in the morning.

So last summer I found myself living from a campsite for a few weeks (work related), the nearest Tim's was a 40 minute round trip so I bought myself a cheap percolator from Wally world and hooked it up to an inverter on the truck. I got a 3000w eliminator from crappy on sale for like $200 and I ran that thing all summer no problem. It's a bit of investment up front for coffee but you'd be surprised what you use the inverter for. I wired it with booster clamps so I'd sit the coffee machine on the rad cover with the hood open and let her go.

This year because of covid we’ll have to make coffee usually someone heads off to get everyone a coffee.
I’m the only one of the group that drinks it black. Two of the guys are half cream yes better be cream not milk two use so much sugar it give elephant a high other one will use powder creamer.

And looks like no place to go out sit down for dinner at night. I can hear the cry’s and see the tears already

No fuss here either, boil water pour in cup with instant Decaf, honey and a bit of milk....Mmm ....then go.
Mind you, I never have a hang over.

Geez reading this nonsense about going to Tim's from the hunt camp has me wondering, are you guys hunting in your backyard or in the bush?

I did the same thing. Got the Inverter on the end of jumper cables, but we use it to run the pole saw. We use the pole saw to cut off branches high on the tree to collect dry wood or clear branches hanging down and blocking trail/road.
