Regardless of what time of the day it is,I always perk a full pot,pour a cup,and then store the coffee pot inside my microwave to keep it warm as long as possible and to keep it from getting bitter. When I want another cup,I just pour it and heat it in the microwave and put the pot back in there when done.
I do the same thing with tea. When I drink tea,it is always green tea.
@sneakypete I have a crappy 12 dollar thermos bottle I got over to the Wallyworld way back in the day... I have prolly bought an even dozen of em, over a few years.... This here one is the last one, from before I got sick... The point being that it is a glass thermos, and while terribly fragile, it will keep liquid piping hot for hours, and pretty far above warm all day.
For all the fancy stuff I have bought, to include Thermos brand and Stanley brand steel ones, that 12 dollar crappy glass thermos puts em all to shame.
So that's the way I went, for many years... Even having a padded nest for such a thing, behind the seat in my truck...
But as I have gone back to the old ways, I have gone another way - Living out of a go-pack, I always carried a tin camp cup. And one of the few luxuries, an alcohol stove... And as you go, the time comes for a break, and you just stop along the trail pop a squirt into that stove, fire it up, and set that tin cup on it to make a boil.
In that way, tea bags were always easier to carry than coffee, and a fair selection could be supported, along with dandelion coffee and hot chocolate mix. After some time, they came out with them silicone collapsible filter cones, which is when single-serve coffee came into the picture, and now Folgers makes coffee in tea bags which also works for a single serving...
Before that, for the longest time, there was Sanka (which I hate), or freeze dried coffee, which is barely alright... I would carry it some, but as a rule, tea was better...
As a side note, I am absolutely fine with cowboy coffee - but that is more of a main camp thing, where you'd have a pot big enough to float the grounds, or a percolator made for the fire... Once you are up and away from the camp, that single-serve thing is what applies.
All that to say, that's kinda where I am going now... back to that single service, made when you want it... And for coffee, I will be going back to that collapsible silicone filter... with a screen in the bottom of it... where you put in the coffee you want in the filter, set that filter on top of your cup, and pour in hot water from the teapot and let er drip... Every time, fresh as fresh, and every time, piping hot.
There is a ritual in that that brings me peace... waiting for the boil, waiting for the steep... waiting for the scaling heat to pass... those tentative first sips... switching the cup from hand to hand because it it still too dang hot... Yeah... it's a thing.
I still have that ol camp cup around here somewheres. That same old one.
