  6. To make it in a coffee pot on a fire out in the bush.
    Bush coffee is not quite the same as coffee brewed with a coffee machine however the preparation is much more exciting and romantic. All you need is a pot, some ground coffee and either a naked fire or a gas camping tripod, and you can experience coffee the way it was made centuries ago.
