To run a "coffee maker" you need electricity. Eisboch is conntemplating carrying
a fairly hefty and cumbersome gasoline powered generator just to make coffee
with an automatic coffee maker. To use a Bodum, you heat the water on the stove,
which on most boats is not electric. A non-electric (or any) percolator makes
about the worst coffee possible. I'd forego the coffee entirely if that was my
alternative.


Was surprised to find this.
Drip using propane.

Everybody's got their own coffee preferences. I prefer drip through a
paper filter. The paper must absorb some taste element I don't care
for that is left in other processes, including gold filters.
About the only thing I haven't tried is the French Press, so I'll
probably give one a try just because.
