Fantastic job the size just right design perfect capacity great. Makes coffee depending on how you like your java. Thank you

First off, as others have said high heat will melt it and distort the metal since it is thin aluminum.It does work it does make a good cup of coffee, you can make it a strong or as light of coffee as you want depending on the brewing time.Quality is questionable, this can bend, dent and nick very easily.Watch the handle due to the build quality and the clear plastic piece, the plastic looks like it will melt easily with too high heatTips for better brewing:The holes in the filter are too big.If you are grinding your own coffee use a medium grind.If you are using a finer grind or pre-ground finer grind like Kirkland Columbian, it will go through the holes and you will have grinds in your coffee.To avoid that, use a wraparound paper filter or reusable filter or like I did since I have a ton of basket filters, I punched holes in two filters and put the coffee between the filters..Brewing, since my stove settings are Off, Low,1 through 9 and High, I heat the water on around 8 just until it just starts to percolate then reduce the temperature to between 2 and 3 for around 15 minutes. I then turn off the stove and let it sit for a few minutes.Brewing times are subjective to individual tastes. Too long it will be bitter due to overextraction and under extraction will result in watery coffee.For my taste I make it with 24 oz water to 6 tbsp coffee, 8 tbsp if I want it stronger.I will eventually replace it with a steel one.

O alumínio é bom, mas ainda não consegui fazer funcionar. Acho que ela só funciona com um tipo específico de café moído ou está com defeito. Falta orientação sobre o produto. Estou tentando descobrir o modo correto de usar.

Excelente producto , perfectamente empaquetado !!!!!!

I bought this pot for my trips out in the woods. The size is great perfect for cooking coffee that will fill more than 2 cups and the coffee is coming out great.I have watched a former cattle drive cook on YT for a long time and this man is completely converse with a open fire, a dutch oven, a skillet and making great coffee. In a video he ran a few years back he made the point that a person should never clean the inside of a coffee pot. Just rinse with water to get out the grounds and let the pot develop it's own patina of cooked coffee inside. Makes the pot settle in and adds flavor to the coffee.This pot has a great handle on it that doesn't get "too hot" so it is easy to manipulate and use it to pour when the coffee is ready.Pick this pot up, you will be truly glad you did.I use in and out of the house. Makes a great morning eye-opener.

facil de usar mu bien el producto

Ive been using this on my BBQ and could not be happier. Issue to use, easy to clean. Perfect item

Great for electric or gas hob.Used in our touring caravan with great results.Bring to boil and turn down heat to perculateWould recommend

Arrived on time with no damage. Nicely buffed. Your basic all-aluminum coffee pot. Plastic perk indicator at the top. Some scoff at plastic rather than glass, but that plastic doesn't get as hot nor is it as likely to break if you drop it on a hard surface. Reading the reviews on here was entertaining, so I'll try to put my two cents worth into the discussion.To begin with, a measured cup is 8 oz. That's a normal sized "mug" of coffee. A regular coffee cup, like mammaw has in her china cabinet, is only about 6 oz. IN THE MANUAL it says "do NOT fill above the lowest row of 3 holes in the spout". Using this as a guide, I measured water into the pot just touching the lowest row of 3 holes. It held 5 1/4 "mugs" or 42 oz to reach that level. They advertise this as a 9 cup model. Adding enough water to reach the top of the lowest row of three holes required just one more ounce of water so it took 43 oz to reach the upper limit. So bottom line is you can only brew just over five 8oz mugs of coffee or you can brew just over seven 6 oz grammaw size cups of coffee. Or you can brew 9 tiny little 4.7 ounce cups of coffee.Now that we know how much the thing holds lets talk a little about how to use it. Old style regular grind (or coarser) works best in a percolator. The finer grinds are meant for drip coffee makers and espresso. I use Maxwell House original, same as my mom and her mom did in their percolators 50 years ago, mainly because I don't want to have to pack a coffee grinder when I go camping, it's available everywhere, and it's not too expensive. But I'm not brand loyal so anytime I see a coarser grind available, I try them all. You're always going to get some sediment in perked coffee. You can buy and use paper filters inside the basket to eliminate them, but doing so changes the flavor and kind of defeats the purpose. So I don't use them at all.Using a percolator:Measure your water and add your ground coffee to the basket. You'll have to decide how many "mugs" you want, and then you'll have to experiment over several days to learn how much coffee to use to get it as strong as you like, according to your taste.Put it on the burner but be mindful, if you start it out on high to speed the process up, you have to be ready to turn the heat way down as soon as it starts percolating. You don't want to boil the water in the pot, just apply enough heat to keep the bubbling going with as little "steam" as possible coming out of the spout. Too much heat will make it taste burnt. On my gas range or Coleman stove, I have to turn the flame almost all the way down to get a slow perk.Once it starts perking slow and regular, start watching your clock or set a timer for three, no more than 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the pot sit for another 3-5 minutes to allow whatever sediment is in the coffee to settle out. Now you're ready to serve. I pour the entire pot into a thermos to keep it hot, but if you take the lid off and remove the basket and stem you can put the pot back on the stove on the lowest heat setting to keep it hot.The above advice applies to all percolators. This Primula Today model is economical, and does exactly what it's supposed to do, aside from brewing 9 cups of coffee.
