Fill the bottom chamber with cold water up to the fill line. Add coarsely ground coffee to the basket, about 1 tablespoon per cup. Assemble the percolator, place it on your heat source over medium heat and watch the top. Once coffee starts bubbling through, drop the heat to medium-low and percolate for 7 to 10 minutes. Pull it off the heat, wait one minute for the grounds to settle, then pour.
Yes. COLETTI percolators are made from pure stainless steel with no plastic or aluminum in the brewing components. This means no plastic taste, no leaching, and no parts that warp from heat over time.
7 to 10 minutes over medium-low heat is the sweet spot for most percolators. Less than 7 minutes produces weak, under-extracted coffee. More than 10 minutes turns it bitter. Watch for a steady, gentle bubble cycling through the top. A violent boil means your heat is too high.
Coarse grind, similar to what you would use for a French press. Fine or medium grinds pass through the basket filter and make the coffee murky and over-extracted. If you are buying pre-ground, look for "percolator grind" or "coarse grind" on the label.
Start with 1 tablespoon of coarsely ground coffee per cup of water. For a stronger brew, increase to 1.5 tablespoons per cup. Adjust based on your taste after the first batch.
Rinse all parts with warm water after each use. Disassemble the basket, stem, and lid for a thorough rinse. COLETTI percolators are dishwasher safe on the top rack. For a deeper clean, COLETTI makes a coffee pot cleaner designed specifically for percolators. Drop a tablet in, run a cycle, rinse, and it is ready to go. For mineral buildup from hard water, equal parts water and white vinegar works too. Run it through a percolate cycle, discard, then rinse twice with clean water.
Yes, typically. Percolators recirculate hot water through the grounds multiple times, producing a bolder, fuller-bodied cup than a standard drip machine. If you prefer a lighter brew, use less coffee or reduce the percolation time slightly.
Yes. COLETTI percolators are built for any heat source including gas stoves, electric stoves, open campfire, and portable camp stoves. Check the individual product page to confirm induction compatibility as it varies by model.
The two most common causes are heat that is too high or percolating too long. Keep the heat at medium-low once brewing starts and remove from heat between 7 and 10 minutes. Using fine ground coffee instead of coarse grind also causes bitterness.
Yes. All COLETTI percolators come with a 1-year warranty. COLETTI is a veteran-owned company and will replace any percolator that fails within the coverage period. Contact the COLETTI support team if you have an issue.
