Pretty self explanitory. I like coffee.. a lot. And I was just curious. You'd think that if you can get hot water to drip at a steady pace into the filter, then you could do it.

My coffee pot broke recently and what I did is took the drip container out,set it on a coffee cup,put a filter and coffee in it,then poured extremely hot water into it.works good.

I agree with jakomo (?) I use a french press. It's easy to use, and very easy to store (in a cabinet). It's like having instant gourmet coffee right in your living room/kitchen, wherever. It's also nice when company comes over - you don't have to use a coffee pot and whatnot.
The ones at Starbucks (most expensive ones I've seen) run anywhere from 24.95-34.95 on sale - but other stores probably have them cheaper - I'd only use the ones that I sale, because I use them daily at work as well as my house.
You just grind the coffee pretty coarse (or have your barista grind it for a French press) and then you put the coffee into the bottom of the French press, fill it all the way with suuuper hot water, put the lid on, wait 5 minutes, push the lid down, and you have perfectly brewed coffee.
It's amazing and if you love coffee will change your whole view of coffee.

Who are these people? Other than Kushan 12 & Hank, you've nothing but misinformation here!
Any true coffee lovers use a French press because it really does make the finest cup of coffee: it allows more the natural oils to flavor it. Also, Turkish coffee still has the grinds in it, & that is great stuff.
Percolators can scorch the beans. French presses are cheap, quick & easy to use.

Of course. There are cultures all over the world where it is still traditional to spoon ground coffee into a cup (or a glass) and pour boiling water over it, so that it steeps just like tea.

or there is a thing called a french press which you pour hot water into coffee grounds with a metal filter.

Folgers makes coffee in tea bags. all you have to do is heat up a mug of water and dip it in. my mother-in-law uses it, she said it's great and saves counter space!!
