Making a Good Pot of Campfire Coffee

Just as the title indicates, this is a simple tutorial on making a good pot of coffee over a fire. I also talk about how the best things in life are often the simplest things in life that we take the time to do right.

Slow down wait a minute is the best damn advise in life. Patience is the key to a happy relaxed life.

Every time I listen to Dwayne my stress level goes down and I'm cool the rest of day keep up the good works

Came here for the coffee, ended up with a whole new look at life that is now making me re-think my entire life. Definitely subscribing.

The last half of video speech is 💯. This guy is aware of how fake the world has become. Respect!

Wife and I started out together very poor. One of the first things we bought was a percolating coffee pot. Made the best coffee and we still have it after 28 yrs.

I feel relaxed simply watching this man make coffee, smoke a fat one and tell us to just chill. Needed that.

I'm 65. I slowed down 15 year ago. Slowing down and a few blessings is how I've made it to than ever.

Two cups of good coffee served in mismatched mugs off a cinder block. Perfect! Keep up the good work. 👍

The world would be a better place with more teachers like this!

I’m a city boy from Akron Ohio and I love this channel! I’m a school teacher and I spend my summers “slowing down”. It’s so fun. Garden, French press coffee, then around noon I switch to beer. Work in the yard, play some music, nap. Repeat! God Bless America!

I came in to make coffee, I came out learning a life lesson. I appreciate this, sir. Thank you…

Gave my grandpa a Mr. Coffee years ago went to see him the next weekend, it was sitting up high on a shelf in the kitchen, could tell it was used (once), I asked him why it wasn't on the counter. He only had a few words for me. "I don't drink instant coffee either". Always made his coffee in a coffee pot or peculator, pure grounds and time and patients. Rethought my future gifts. Grampa was always about quality and time. "If your going to do some thing take your time and do it right or don't do it at all" Your Canadian Friend and Fan

Dwayne is a modern day prophet. I could listen to him for hours. He has a fabulous voice and his philosophy on life is compelling. Bet his coffee is damned good, too!

"Customize your life"- I love that and it’s so true. If you want to control your anxiety and your stress, slow down. That’s what I’ve been doing for several years and it works great, but I still get caught in the ways of the conditioned thinking, but I’m aware of that right away and I stop…and slow down.

I get up at 4:30 am everyday (including weekends) and I have a routine that it’s enjoyable and don’t require rushing. I get up, feed my cats, brew my coffee ( similar to Dwayne’s way) enjoy my cup of coffee, do the bathroom thing, take a shower and do everything in the NOW. I’m not thinking about work, I’m not thinking about how much work I have to do today, I don’t care nor think about it, those thoughts aren’t allowed in my brain. I simply enjoy the moment with a soothing instrumental music in the background while I do my routine. That’s my meditation method, stay in the present moment because that’s where I live.
I don’t live an hour away from now. I live right now.
I do this all the way until I get to work at 6:30 am ( I don’t have to be there until 7:30am, though) I get there and begin my day preparing what’s to be delivered that day.
I’m in logistics, so by the time employees start arriving, I have everything ready and we open for business. And I try my best to stay in the present and do things following steps I developed in order to reduce stress in employees and customers. We don’t jump from 1 to 5. To get to 5 you have to go through 2, 3 and 4 and this makes the day at work more enjoyable.

I love watching Dwayne’s videos. He uses every second of every one of his videos to say something interesting and helpful. That’s very valuable.
Stay present my friends.

Best coffee experience for me was my percolator over a fire in the Wasatch Mtns with plain old Folgers in the 1960s. Now I am a geezer and we grind our coffee fresh every morning from fresh roasted beans from Bisbee AZ's Old Bisbee roasters, delivered by mail weekly. No better coffee, but the experience is not so magical as that old campfire coffee. When we go up the mountain and combine the two, heaven is close at hand. I am greatful for Dewayne's simple approach to life.

I come back this video every few months to remind myself to slow down.

My friends and I go camping about 4 times a year, usually on a friends land sometimes at a hunting lodge (yeah, not really "camping" but no cell or wifi or stoves). First one up is responsible to get coffee going (usually me). Nice sitting by a creek, perc in the coals, peace and quiet. Once everyone is up, we all get breakfast going (about 6 or 8 of us), more coffee made, games (and liquor) come out, then dinner. Life is simple, when you decide it should be!

I have that same coffee pot in my camper I have had for over 25 years. Guy I used to Elk Hunt with got it for me. Ed passed awhile back. While at his elk camp, he had some rules. You leave your problems at the gate to get up here. You dont badmouth or bitch at his camp about people. Coffee is made in a peculator, not a machine. And most of all, you leave his camp a better person. Watching these videos remind me of Ed

As the wind blows, the grass grows and the sky is blue. Slow down and notice. Good advice Dwayne, I'm with ya on this one.
