Antique Collectable Cowboy Coffee Pot - Enamel

An enamel or granite wear coffee pot. In good condition.

Stands about 6" tall overall with a 4 1/2" base and will hold 7 cups
Just like the one in the bunk house in the 1948 movie "RED RIVER"

The best cowboy coffee, in my mind, comes out of an enamel pot. Once the campfire is going, fill the pot with cold water and, when it boils, dump in the coffee grounds. (The only way to know how MUCH coffee is to work at it. Your comfort zone may range from 3/4 cup per quart of water to twice that).  Let it cook for a minute -- no longer! -- and set the pot in a protected spot to steep for 5 minutes. A soft, sandy soil works well as an insulator here, and it's a good idea to cover it with a small towel.

This is a vintage gray enamel Coffee Pot. This pot is the type that was used for outside camping or on the trail. The attached top and lid is tin and in good condition. The condition is good with a bit of rust and smoke discoloration that adds character to this collectible.
