Good Morning Coffee Lovers!

When you’re learning how to incorporate the comforts of home into your wheelhouse routines, one of the first things to consider is how you are going to have your morning cup of coffee while out on the ice!  Using a traditional coffee maker can be taxing on your generator and limit other electrical components’ usability while the coffee is brewing.  Even with a generator, it can become complicated in choosing when the coffee get’s made, and when the breakfast pizza can go on the pizzaz.  We have come up with a simple fix, and it involves changing the method of how you make coffee.  It’s time to learn the art of making French press coffee and earn your badge as a fish house barista!

The process of making coffee in a French press only takes a few minutes and you will swear it’s the best cup of coffee you’ve ever had in your wheelhouse!  It may even change the way you make it at home!

• Hot water kettle
• Drinking water
