A Large-sized enamel or granite wear coffee pot. In very good condition,
has only a very little chipping on it, otherwise perfect. Stands about
11 inches tall overall with a
10 1/4 inch base. The condition is very good with NO dents, breaks or holes. The lid fits perfectly.
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. (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 is a good idea to cover it with a small
towel.
This
is a vintage gray enamel coffee pot with a bale handle. This pot is the
type that was used for outside camping or on the trail. The lid is in perfect condition. The bale is heavy wire. the
bale handle will adjust to set straight up or swivel front to back,
notice the attached piece on the back which is to grip and pour.
