Cold brew coffee keeps for at least a week. It can be made very concentrated so a small amount can be used to make a larger amount. If I were going out for a week or less, I would take my prepare concentrate with me and reconstitute as needed. Ray -- You received this message because you

Yeah, I can't see the plastic bag working for more than a day or two. I guess the only thing I'd do is bring along some cheesecloth to strain the coffee into a cup? But your tolerance for grounds might be higher than mine. Otherwise, I can't think of anything to refine or otherwise embetterify

Not sure how long you're out there for, but I was thinking more along the lines of just throwing it in a plastic bag and dealing with it when you get home. Jeff Hagedorn Los Angeles, CA USA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Thanks. I agree, Jeff. The trick is I've never had great luck with ease of cleaning the filter, essential in bear country, and it is multiplied by being in arid country too, so very minimal water use, especially when dry camping. With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you
