big_al Addict Registered: 01/04/06 Posts: 586 Loc: 20mi east of San Diego	I have just discovered that a heavy alum foil bag that the designer coffees come in make a nice cooking pot, also you can boil water in it . It can be folded and placed in a small kit. _________________________ Some people try to turn back their odometers.

Anonymous Unregistered	Great idea, now I'll have to find a robust coffee plunger to pack in my BOB to drink the coffee before I can cook my meal <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

ironraven Cranky Geek Carpal Tunnel Registered: 09/08/05 Posts: 4642 Loc: Vermont	Being yet another of our non-coffee drinkers, I've never noticed those before. Any brands in particular I should keep an eye out for? And since none of the others noticed this was you first post, welcome. _________________________ -IronRaven When a man dare not speak without malice for fear of giving insult, that is when truth starts to die.

massacre Old Hand Registered: 12/07/05 Posts: 781 Loc: Central Illinois	Ditto here Ironraven... I'd like a link to one that's been used successfully. I'm a bit afraid of any toxic chemicals if you were to put a plastic coated one directly in fire - though the hot-rock method may be safer. Cool idea. _________________________ Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards.

Schwert Old Hand Registered: 03/13/02 Posts: 905 Loc: Seattle, Washington	Most of the coffee bags I am familiar with are made from laminated films....polyester/foil/polyester/polyethylene. The foil is very thin and supported by the polyester layers, the polyethylene forms the seals...and has a fairly low melting point. I cannot imagine these holding up in a fire....boiling food in the bag maybe but not as a cook pot exposed to direct flame. There must be some sort of coffee package that I have not seen.

Zardoz Newbie Registered: 03/04/06 Posts: 25 Loc: Indianapolis	Great Idea, Al! Perhaps the pouch could be trimmed and folded to the point where it carries flat in your pocket behind a altoids or similar PSK. You could steam, cook, drink, or store things in such a pouch. Very handy! Exhaust manifold cooking comes to mind (so much more difficult with newer cars)... Coffee bag/exhaust manifold rabbit stew, anyone? _________________________ Be Happy

joaquin39 Member Registered: 03/19/05 Posts: 149 Loc: Philadelphia,Pennsyvania, USA.	Can you tell us more details. Ex: brand of coffee, where did you buy it, size of bag (or ounces). Thanks for the idea.
