I know what you mean... I think I would make a more watery coffee, using less grounds.

In order to make it still tasty, I would prioritize getting whole beans and smashing them up yourself not long before brewing.

I would do this while avoiding plastic contact, e.g. a metal-bowl coffee grinder or one of those hand grinders (which I have not tried but assume work pretty well.)

Okay, I will try that. I actually have a commercial countertop grinder from a junk sale. I'll grind fresh and I'm seeing other people say use filters?

I've had cowboy coffee like you described, boiling-brewing-pouring, it was tasty. I'm a bit lazier than you are, I think.

Edit: thanks for sharing, btw. I love being able to hear from someone so knowledgeable.
