Hello Adventurer 🥾,
Â
There’s nothing quite like waking up to the smell of fresh coffee and a crackling campfire out in the wild. If you’ve ever struggled to get that perfect cup while Squatchin’ or camping, you’re not alone. Brewing coffee outdoors can be a challenge—but it doesn’t have to be!
Â
Here’s how I brew the perfect campfire coffee every single
time:
Start with bold beans: I always pack a bag of Sasquatch Coffee—it’s roasted for adventure and stands up to any wilderness morning.
Grind just before you brew: If you can, bring a small hand grinder. Freshly ground beans make all the difference in flavor and
aroma.
Use clean water: Whether it’s from a mountain stream or your own jug, filtered water is key for a clean, smooth cup.
The right method: My go-to is the classic pour-over or a trusty percolator right on the campfire. Both bring out the best in bold, small-batch coffee.
Let it steep: Don’t rush it! Give your coffee a few minutes to bloom and steep, letting those wild flavors
shine.

With the right beans and a little patience, your campfire coffee can be just as legendary as
the stories you tell around the flames. Ready to try it for yourself? Stock up on your favorite roasts and get brewing. Every adventure deserves a legendary cup!
