What happens if your power goes out? If your anything like me, one of the first things you think of is "How am I going to make my coffee!?!?". Since we have a gas stove, we bought a percolator. It takes about 20 minutes to brew but it makes a nice strong cup of coffee!
Inside, there are levels showing ho high to fill the water. Mine has a 4, 6 and 8 cup option.
After (or before) you fill your desired amount of water, you put this piece into the pot.
This holds the part that contains the coffee and allows water to shoot up through the pipe and onto the coffee grinds.
We've been really into buying organic whole bean coffee and grinding it every other day or so. This allows for the freshest cup of coffee you can get in your kitchen. This is one of the bags of coffee that we tried. It's one of the better ones but not the best. As with almost everything we buy, it is ordered from Amazon.com
Awhile ago, my aunt gave me a version of the magic bullet. This works great as a coffee grinder.
A coarse grind is best for the percolator. We also have a reusable K-cup for our Keurig which the coarse grind also works well for.
I usually measure 1 tbsp of coffee to each cup of water.
Put the lid on the coffee part, then the lid on the pot.
Set stove on high. Once it starts to boil, lower to about medium and time it for about 7 minutes.
You can see the coffee pop up and down in the clear knob on top.
Pour in your favorite mug and enjoy!
I like to use a tsp of organic sugar and vanilla almond milk to give it more flavor. :)
