Woke up with no electricity this morning. How do you make coffee without electricity?

Camp coffee," as it's sometimes known, is fairly easy to make without power provided that you still have a way to boil water. If you have a Coleman camp stove, you're good. If you have a barbecue pit or grill out back, you're good.

First, boil some water. I would not, of course, use the glass coffee pot for this venture, as these pots tend to fail in epic ways when put on open flames. (If nothing else, the plastic handle will melt, which just sucks.) Next, go grab the basket from the coffee maker.

Clean it out and load it up as if you were going to make coffee the normal, electricity-enabled way. Put the glass coffee pot on the kitchen counter and rest the basket on top. If the basket won't fit, get a brave person to hold the basket for you.

If you can't find a brave person, find someone who's desperate for coffee - he or she will find some courage. You should also be very careful - I highly recommend oven mitts for this task. Pour a little of the hot water into the basket and let it drip through into the coffee pot.

Add a little more when there's room, and continue doing this until you have the usual amount of coffee in the glass pot. Enjoy coffee. Oh, and the creamer in the refrigerator?

It's still good, provided that the power hasn't been off for several days in a row or something like that. Alternatively, you can just go into the pantry or refrigerator and grab a soda. The power's out!

What better excuse do you need for chugging Mountain Dew in the morning?

If you have a BBQ fire it up outside to boil the water otherwise a small backyard campfire would work too. Most practical, head to work and buy one at a coffee shop.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
