According to the article quoted below, cooks on the trail with cowboys in the old days prepared their coffee as follows:

Quote:
Chuck wagon cooks squeezed every drop of caffeine and flavor they could out of their coffee, piling fresh grounds on the old ones before boiling away. If you're wondering just how strong the cowhands liked their java, this recipe from "Western Words" tells the tale: "Take two pounds of Arbuckle's coffee, put in 'nough water to wet it down, boil it for two hours, then throw in a hoss shoe. If the hoss shoe sinks, she ain't ready."


What Did Cowboys Really Eat In The Old West?[^]
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!
