DIY Grill Top Canteen Stove and Slow Drip Coffee

Today we're testing out a new piece of homemade gear, a DIY version of the Grill Top Canteen Stove. Since we're testing it out and getting two cups of water up to a rolling boil, we might as well make coffee! There is nothing like a good cup of freshly ground, Slow Drip Coffee so today, I show you a little tip on how to make a good cup of freshly brewed, Slow Drip Coffee while out on the trail with limited gear. No more need for "cowboy" coffee, "tea bag" coffee, micro-ground or instant coffee...

Cheers!

@bushcraftmaster12201 I did have to get a modern ALICE canteen cover to fit the stove and cup, my old pre 1970s one was just too tight! As for the addition of the second cup along with the first cup and stove... For now I just keep the second cup in my pack. From what I understand, the newer ACU MOLLE II Canteen covers with the Y strap have plenty of room to allow for a canteen two canteen cups, one on top and one on bottom of the canteen, and the canteen stove.

Nice vid. How about a DIY cappuccino foamer to go with that?

[BackwoodsUncleBub]

@billpg LOL! I'll be working on that Bill! You better believe as soon as I get it figured out, I'll show you how I done it! Then you can enjoy your beloved cup of cappuccino right there on the trail along with me! :-)

great idea ...went to the surplus store today and all i could say was holy shit 9.99 for a cup lol so i'll send you the money and you can pick me up a few of them LOL

[BackwoodsUncleBub]

@poormansbushcraft Wow! They're proud of their cups, huh? If you can't find any locally, try ebay. I just searched form "Military Canteen Cup" and found several used for $2-$3 and new ones from $5-$14 on the buy it now prices. One dealer had 5 Stainless Steel Canteen Cups for a dollar more than the price your store was asking for ONE! Worst case scenario, PM me we'll see what we can work out. ;-)

There is a compact and reusable coffee drip in the market.

Look for "Finum Coffee" in amazon.com

[downtowncowtown]

would dryer lint serve the same purpose as the house insulation or would it burn too fast ? What if it was packed really tight ?
