User Manual for the Petromax Perkomax Percolator
Thank you for choosing the Petromax Percolator. The Petromax Tea and Coffee Percolator allows you
to brew your preferred coffee or favourite tea while preserving their natural flavour. We are convinced
that you will be delighted with your Petromax Percolator and we hope that every beverage will be a
special pleasure.
Important instructions
Before using the Perkomax for the first time, read the following information carefully. Follow
the safety instructions and keep this user manual for future reference.
First use and cleaning
After each use and before the first use, wash the Percolator and all its parts thoroughly with water with
a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly inside and outside with a clean and dry cloth.
Percolation process and preparation
The Petromax percolators operate according to the percolator principle: Water is heated. The result-
ing pressure presses the water upwards through the tube where it passes through the sieve and drips
onto the coffee powder. Below it once again mixes with the remainder of the water. The more often
this process is repated the more intensive the taste of the coffee becomes. We recommend a brewing
time of 12-15 minutes. The percolator can be used for camping, outdoor and garden activities but also
on the stove at home.
Only use coarsely ground coffee or coarse, loose tea to ensure the efficiency of the percolation process.
Please note the minimum and maximum filling level of your Percolator.
