Coffee In The Truck

I believe this last bag was a medium roast from Eight O'Clock... Started with a middle of the road roast/grind... I will look for a lighter roast and consider the two brands you suggested above.

Also, since the coffee is sitting in the water for so long it really soaks up making the left over grinds a bit more "muddy" than when I do hot brew... Probably a poor description.

I was thinking of going with a more course grind to see if I can offset that a bit as it makes it harder to press through the AreoPress but, you suggest a fine grind? Hum... Guess I will try the fine grind first to get a good cup first and deal with the mud after that.

Thanks for your feedback!!!

Ya, we have one at home and they are convenient for sure. Just no place to put that someplace in my cab. And then to have water in it all the time, just seems like trouble coming.

it's called a French press... they are great for making coffee just the way you want it..... most if the truckstops have a 12v water heater like this https://jet.com/product/detail/97ee...ba711251241f&gclid=CIbyxLP8v8kCFdgagQodwaoKxQ you can use it to heat the water in the truck

about 4-5 min to get the water good and hot.. you don't need to boil water to use a French press... you just need the water a little hotter than you like to drink....
