How to Use a Portable French Press
Brewing a smooth, rich cup of French press coffee is easy when you have your Pathfinder camping travel press coffee kit.
-
Add the grinds to the bottom of the stainless steel container. Course grinds work best, but you can use a smaller grind size and still enjoy good coffee thanks to the fine mesh filtering screen. Use two tablespoons for every eight ounces of boiled water (or slightly more if you like a richer brew).
-
Boil the water. With the Pathfinder Stainless Steel Water Bottle, you can heat the water directly over the flames. You can heat the water in the French press container if you don’t have a separate camping bottle or stove. Yes, it’s durable enough for campfire cooking!
-
Pour your boiling water into the French Press container up to your desired amount (if heating the water separately). The measurements inside the container make it easy to create the correct ratio of coffee grounds and water. If you’re using the French Press Kit alone, you still want to add the grounds first, then the water. After that, place the French Press on your cooking grate uncovered until the water boils.
-
Remove the Pathfinder coffee press from the fire and cover it with the top. Let the coffee steep for about four minutes.
-
After brewing, gently push the plunger down all the way.
That’s all there is to it! You can pour, serve, and enjoy a cup of rich, tasty coffee while drinking in the great outdoors.
How Long Does Brewed Coffee Stay Warm?
The Pathfinder camping French Press kit is made from 304 food-grade stainless steel, so you can expect to keep your coffee hot for close to an hour. You can also keep your coffee warmer by placing the pot back over the campfire.
However, keep in mind: Coffee in French presses will continue to brew, so it’s best to prepare and pour into your coffee mug or camping thermos immediately to get the best flavor.
The Best Travel French Press Coffee Maker for Camping and Hiking
The Pathfinder French Press is a bushcrafter’s dream. It holds up to 48 ounces so you can make plenty of coffee for yourself and your family or friends. You can also use it as a stand-alone kit to pack light without sacrificing great coffee.
But the best part is you can count on delicious, smooth coffee every time. There’s no paper filter to remove some of the coffee’s oils, and no need to settle for a bland cup of instant coffee when you’re roughing it. You can fuel your outdoor adventure with pure coffee goodness with the Pathfinder press.
