Know before you buy
No, this model includes a permanent stainless steel filter basket, so you do not need to purchase or use paper filters.
While the manufacturer specifies compatibility with electric stoves, the stainless steel construction is generally heat-resistant. However, for best results and to prevent damage to the handle, ensure the flame does not extend beyond the base of the pot.
The percolator is designed for a quick brewing cycle, typically taking about 5 minutes once the water begins to reach the appropriate temperature.
The handle is designed to stay cool during the brewing process on a stovetop, allowing you to pour your coffee safely without needing an oven mitt.
For the best flavor and to prevent grounds from passing through the filter, use a coarse grind similar to what you would use for a French press.
