A Gorgeous Cup of Coffee
This is basically cowboy coffee which is filtered after it has been brewed for 5 minutes. Potentially the best coffee you will ever have depending on your preference for coffee and they type of beans you choose.
Bring water to boil.
For tall and grande size, I use 2 T ground coffee beans, for venti or stronger coffee some people will prefer 3 T.
Add ground coffee and cover for 5 minutes.
Pour through filter.
I usually add raw honey and organic whole milk for the latte or café crème
The filter is a whole discussion in itself. I had long used unbleached paper filters, placed in a glass pour over dripper, but they frequently would tear slightly. So, I read several articles about the flavor of paper vs stainless steel filter coffee compared. I studied reports and reviews and found this stainless-steel pour over filter. The coffee is so excellent, I have purchased several to keep at the different houses where I spend time. Slow Drip Paperless Stainless-Steel Coffee Filter
The cup: I prefer to drink out of a ceramic mug, and there are a few ceramic lined stainless steel insulated mugs available. They fit in car cup holders, the coffee filter sits well on top, and it keeps your drink hot.
The Clean Hydration Company Tumbler Insulated with Lid, Double-Wall Vacuum, 20 Oz Travel
GUDEMAO 20 oz Insulated Coffee Mug with Ceramic Coating When I was searching for a lavender ceramic travel mug, I came across this choice, and it works perfect. They come in a large variety of cute colors.
Sometimes I will brew the coffee and keep it hot in the mug, but decant it into a smaller ceramic mug.
The lid: These fit the clean hydration mug and the are replacement tops if you like the 20
oz Yeti Tumbler (but these are not ceramic lined). The magnetic slide comes off for ease of washing, I occasionally pop these into the dishwasher to really sanitize or if I’m switching to tea.
The coffee is up to you. I like the slightly bitter deep roast style of coffee. Right now I'm
