I am fussy about coffee so If it were me I'd be out right now buying another coffee machine.
My dad never cared for coffee makers. Until he moved from his own house to assisted living, he had a percolator for his coffee. When my parents visited us for a weekend, he had to drink coffee from a coffee maker my wife uses. He said it was OK but it wasn't percolator coffee. lol
Nothing beats perked coffee! French press is 2nd to percolated coffee, but I do not have time for that on weekdays. I am on my 3rd one of these in about 5 years, maybe 6, and it brews a decent cup and quickly. I cannot stand the pods. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01C8B8J..._8njCFb37RE384
Your post asks how to make coffee without coffee maker.
You take ground coffee, put it into cotton gauze square of suitable size, fold it over the coffee corners together, so you have a round sack with coffee in it. Put a rubber band over it, to secure edges. Boil water, pour into cup and drop that gauze in. Let it sit there for some time, maybe moving up and down few times.
Done.
Everything is elementary. You can cook it in a turk. It can be even easier-in a small saucepan.
Pour water in pan on the number of cups of coffee, put ground coffee at the rate of two teaspoons per cup of coffee and bring to a boil, as soon as begin to boil and begin the foam rise, remove from the heat.
Before I discovered the pourover holder, I simply used a paper towel over the cup, put a scope of coffee in the towel and pour boiling water into it. It works.
That was the old method we used while camping. We called it "cowboy coffee."
