Hello everyone and all members of the community, how are you today? In recent days I have heard a lot about some of my friends and relatives suffering from fever, cough, and flu. I pray and hope that all of you are always healthy and happy in every activity and work that you are doing. We also have to take care of our bodies so we don't get sick easily. It's been two days, I didn't write on this blog. A few days ago I went on vacation with my family and after coming home from that vacation my wife and I became sick.

Camping and Outdoor Activities

Do you like outdoor activities such as mountain climbing, camping or exploring nature? I also like the activity. Camping in the wild is the most appropriate way to reduce the boredom of urban life. Going to relax and enjoy the scenery makes our feelings and thoughts calmer and of course makes us happier.

My family and I went to South Tapanuli, North Sumatra which is about 10 hours from the city where I live. We went in a large group of about 30 people with 7 cars. We got a hotel, but the room was for women only, and the men were made tents to sleep in. It was quite interesting and fun, because I haven't slept in a tent for about 3 years.



Coffee in Nature

One of the problems that often arise when going on vacation or camping in the wild is that we have difficulty getting a delicious cup of coffee. Except, suddenly there's a coffee shop in the middle of the woods and that seems even more spooky. There is an easy way to enjoy coffee while camping, namely brewing instant coffee. Boiling instant coffee is the most practical way to make coffee and I often did it before when I wasn't familiar with quality coffee. But, right now I can't drink Saschet coffee and the solution is I always bring my own coffee utensil.

Every time I go on vacation with my family, I am assigned to be a barista and brew coffee for all those in need. I have a fairly complete equipment to brew quality coffee when I am anywhere (such as in the forest, beach, or mountain). I'm always expected by everyone to brew coffee when I'm together.

In the morning, after I wake up and breathe fresh air. I then immediately rushed to prepare coffee to be drunk with my brother. There are several options or brewing methods that I can use and this time I will brew coffee using the moka pot method.



Brew Coffee in Nature

As a barista in my family, I have to choose the right coffee and brew method that works best for them. Some of my family members like coffee with milk or coffee with sugar, which means I have to prepare coffee with bold and strong characters to match the sweet taste of sugar and milk.

I prefer to brew with mokapot. Mokapot is very practical to use when in the wild, because it only requires a small stove to boil it. The results of steeping coffee from a mocha pot, will tend to be stronger and bolder, so it is very suitable if you add a sweetener. Basically, a mokapot is a brewing tool for making espresso but it's certainly different from espresso from a machine.

The capacity of my mokapot is about 300 ml and there are about 15 people who will drink coffee. I have to brew quickly and repeatedly to make a lot of coffee. Every coffee that I brew, I will transfer it to the coffee pot and later will divide it evenly into the cup.



Coffee and Peace

Nature, beautiful scenery and a cup of coffee seem to be a combination that soothes the heart and soul. Just a cup of quality coffee makes the heart happy, especially if it is drunk in a place like this and the atmosphere of intimacy between relatives and family will certainly increase the happiness of everyone drinking it.

Coffee is like dopamine, addictive but legal and harmless. One thing that is dangerous from coffee is when slowly the coffee starts to run out in our cups, and we will get restless again.

One thing is for sure, after enjoying a cup of coffee. We have to keep the environment clean from the place around. This is important, the trash that we throw away sometimes makes other people feel that throwing trash is normal and we have to get rid of that bad habit.

Enjoy a cup of coffee and may we all be protected from disease or pandemic.

Friend, I hope you can recover, it is difficult the first 3 days but if you take good care of yourselves everything passes very quickly.

By the way you reminded me of when I was little and my family went to the beach, and since we never had a greca, my dad used a sock as a strainer, hahaha but at least we enjoyed a good coffee on the beach.

thank you for stopping by @fabian98
I have recovered enough and can work again.

interesting idea using socks, but don't use old socks, I'm afraid the taste of the coffee will mix. ha ha

Hello @isdarmady, I guess the men had to be tough, right? I've only been camping once. Wasn't the nicest of experience, but I'd still do it again.
I'm not surprised that Barista duties were assigned to you; it's great the availability of manual coffee makers, only the heat is of concern. I hope to get myself a little camping stove, because I think it could be handy.
Amazing that there was a coffee shop in the woods:)

thank you for stopping by @millycf1976
That's right, as a coffee connoisseur everywhere, I have several manual brew tools that I can use. a pleasant experience when you can brew coffee for many people, especially relatives and family.

Awesome,👏 thanks for responding.
Have a great day!
