THE TOUGHEST BREWING GEAR
With over ten combat deployments, our team of veterans has engineered our coffee gear to handle the toughest journey you can take it on.
Your coffee deserves a mug that keeps it hot and tasting right. Built for the wild — rugged, durable, and ready for anything.
Great coffee isn’t just about the beans — it’s about the tools. Our premium coffee brewing accessories help you dial in the perfect pour, from grinders to filters, so you never compromise on quality — even miles from the nearest café.
Whether you’re setting up base camp by the lake or brewing on the road in your van, our camping coffee makers help you start the day right. The COLETTI percolator is designed for quick setup and reliable brewing, delivering rich, bold flavor while you soak in the beauty of the outdoors.
Using a camping coffee percolator is simple:
As the water heats, it rises through the tube and showers over the grounds. Watch the glass knob on top — this shows you when the coffee is perking properly.
To prevent bitter or burnt percolator coffee, control your heat.
A coffee percolator should perk gently — not boil aggressively.
Keep your heat at medium to medium-low. You want a steady, rhythmic perk in the glass top, not a rapid rolling boil. Excess heat can over-extract the coffee and create bitterness.
This is especially important when brewing coffee over a campfire.
For smooth camping coffee:
A coarse grind prevents grounds from slipping through the basket and keeps your percolator coffee bold without tasting muddy.
The ideal brew time for percolator coffee is 4–7 minutes.
Start timing when you see the first splash in the glass knob.
Brewing longer than 7–8 minutes may lead to over-extraction and bitterness.
After your camping trip:
For mineral buildup or stubborn stains, run a brewing cycle with a vinegar and water solution. This helps restore shine and remove residue.
When brewing coffee over a campfire, aim for the same 4–7 minute window.
Campfires produce uneven heat, so monitor closely. You may need to move the percolator to the edge of the grate or a cooler spot to maintain a gentle perk instead of a rolling boil.
Yes. Remove the basket and stem assembly, and your camping coffee percolator works as a rugged stainless steel camping kettle.
It’s perfect for:
Percolator coffee produces a piping hot, bold, and full-bodied cup.
Because water cycles through the grounds multiple times, the result is deeper and stronger than many standard drip machines. For cold mornings outdoors, many campers prefer percolator coffee for its rich flavor and durability in rugged conditions.
