How to Make Coffee in a Pan

In a pinch, you may find yourself making coffee in a pan---it's a nice solution when your coffee pot breaks, or if you're camping in the great outdoors without electricity. Happily, brewing coffee on the stove is a relatively simple process.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Pan
• 3/4 cup of coffee grinds
• 1 quart of water
• Coffee cup

1. Pour water in a pan and bring it to a boil.

2. Add coffee grinds to the water while it is boiling and stir.

3. Take the coffee grinds off of the stove or campfire and allow the coffee to steep for five minutes to bring out the full flavor of the coffee. The coffee grinds will also begin to settle to the bottom of the pan.

4. Pour the coffee slowly into a cup to prevent too many coffee grinds from landing in your coffee cup. Drink the coffee hot.

Tips & Warnings

• Use a coffee filter if you have one by placing it in your coffee cup and pouring the coffee into the filter.
• For more flavor, use finer coffee grounds.
