camp coffee

By David Sweet, About.com

Definition: camp coffee - Place enough coffee into a pot of cold water. Place the pot on the stove or campfire. When steam rises from the coffee pot, the coffee is hot and ready. Methods to remove the coffee grounds include wrapping the coffee in cheesecloth, dropping a raw egg in the coffee pot just before it's ready to drink (the cooked egg collects all the grounds), pouring a cup of cold water in the coffee pot (this causes the grounds to fall to the bottom of the pot so you can pour the hpt coffee off the top).
