Note:
When removing the lid, always hold the knob and pull the lid straight up.
The knob can become damaged if the lid is pulled up at an angle. Do not use
the percolator if the knob has been damaged.
Before percolating and pouring
Make sure that the lid is fitted tightly.
During percolation
Never remove the lid during percolation.
Water capacity
Never fill the percolator with less than 2 cups or more than 8 cups of water.
Cleaning the level tube
There is a small rubber bung plugging a hole in the top of the handle. Pry out the bung
using a suitable object and clean the inside of the level tube with a pipe cleaner or similar.
Hints and advice
• You can use either medium-ground or coarsely-ground coffee in the percolator.
If you use coarsely-ground coffee you should use a little more than medium-
ground coffee for the same strength.
• It is possible to buy coarsely-ground coffee specially suited for percolators.
• Finely-ground coffee is likely to leave sediment at the bottom of the percolator.
Leave the coffee to stand for a few minutes to let the sediment sink to the bottom.
• Rinse the coffee basket with cold water before brewing to prevent coffee grounds
from falling down into the percolator.
• Do not overfill the coffee basket. Always leave a gap of 1 cm to the rim of the basket.
Percolating
Note:
Always make sure that the percolator is unplugged when you are filling it with
water and coffee.
1. Lift the percolator off the base and fill it with the desired amount of cold water.
2. Look at the water level tube in the handle or the level markings inside
the percolator. Always fill with at least two cups of water for the best results.
Using less water could lead to the percolator boiling dry.
3. Fill the coffee basket with the desired amount of coffee (usually 1 measure per cup).
Distribute the coffee evenly and put the spreader plate over the basket.
4. Place the coffee basket onto the tube. Place the assembled parts into the percolator.
5. Make sure that the tube holding the coffee basket and spreader plate is placed in
the centre of the percolator.
6. Press the lid on firmly and place the percolator onto the base.
7. Plug the mains lead into an earthed wall socket.
