What do you guys use if your power goes out and you to make coffee? If my power goes out, I have no way to make coffee.

My wife and I use a French press to make coffee since we have cut back on our coffee drinking. As long as you have a source of hot water you're set.

What Shadow said. If you have a gas stove, you are good to go. If not, you'll need some type of alcohol burner. If you have a gas stove, you could always use a moka pot too.

I have one I use for camping but the coffee sucks that comes out of it. But it is coffee while camping.

I'd make cowboy coffee at home before I would use that percolator at home.
