So this is what I have found as a working solution

Boil about a quarter cup of water. It must be as hot as possible.

Add a heaped tea spoon or two (depending on your preference).

Let it steep for a few minutes, the filter/sieve.

You end up with black liquid as indicated.

I top mine off with hot milk.

That’s it. That is what is working for me.

Thanks for the tips.

    You should buy a chemex or french press. Much better results than cowboy coffee.

      I have a French Press, but I like cowboy coffee.

        There are steep and release brewers like the Hario Switch and Clever Dripper. If you want to branch out.
