[at-l] Car camping coffee

[daveh@psknet.com (Dave Hicks)]

I'll go a tad farter and get more specific.

1)  Which beans you use/prefer/select and how they are handled/prepared
(stored, roasted, stored, ground, stored as grounds, etc) is the major
factor in any coffee's taste -- regardless how the grounds are brewed.  The
pre-bagged stuff is just not to my taste -- YMMV.

2)  Paper (either bags or filters) absorb some of the oils that metal
filters & presses leave for your taste buds.

So, IMHO, the best coffee tasting coffee is your personal choice of quality
grounds prepared in a way that leaves the full flavor in the brew -- YMMV.
