So back when I was first living on my own. I of course had no money and I still needed coffee. So I just started doing what I would call cowboy coffee. Where the hot water and grounds are just combined. Then the grounds settle to the bottom. I have had a number of people find this quite uncouth and have tried to make me change. So I just got curious about what everyone here thought.
And just as a point of order. I like it and have no plans to change. Any attempt to sway me will fall on deaf ears. Though I am quite willing to accept the title of heathen if people decide so.
Nothing wrong with that, look up “coffee sock”. It’s used exactly as you describe, except they put this filter down first, then lift it out with the grounds after it’s done brewing. All the other methods mentioned here are valid too, coffee is coffee!
