    Best Coffee Ever

    I seen this pot on a blog and decided to check it out. I had a percolator style pot years ago, but I could not remember how it performed nor tasted. I am currently using an old Mr. Coffee drip machine. I have used Keurig and a coffee Ninja. The Keurig while very convenient, I could never find a coffee I liked. Also so many of the pods had a funny taste to me. The Ninja came up with the clean me now light problem. A real PITA and also a POS machine for the price. Clean me now please only to return in a week or two again. It is a known problem and if you doubt me, Google it. I gave both to the local Goodwill. So I decided to read some of the reviews here and then decide. Well after reading so many positive reviews, I decided I had to have one. Now all I needed to do was decide which one to order; the 8 cup or the 12 cup. The majority of the time, I am brewing a pot for just me. However on the weekends, I tend to make a bigger pot as my son will join me in drinking coffee. Reading through the description here I found where it states a cup is 4 oz. My Mr. Coffee manual has a cup as 5 oz. and I normally make 8 cups. So I did the math: 5 oz. x 8 = 40 oz. So 4 oz. x 10 = 40 oz. So I thought it best to order the 12 cup for a bit of room for the weekends. After using this pot a couple of times, I realized that I have a lot more coffee than my Mr. Coffee. So I decided to use an actual measuring cup to find out the truth. What I concluded is the Farberware cup is a 6 oz. cup and when I fill it to the 6 cup marking on the wall I have about 36 oz. for 6 cups. On the first few days I was making a bit more coffee than I normally do, and making it a bit too weak for me also. I measured the amount my favorite mug holds and it came to 12 oz. This pot when I make 6 cups will give me 3 good mugs of coffee. That is my intake for a normal morning of coffee.I now fill to the 6 cup mark and add 6 good scoops (tablespoons) of my coffee. I have been adding a scant amount of salt to the basket as one reviewer suggested. She claims it helps to offset the acidity. I can’t swear to that, but I can swear that after using this pot for a week now, I will not be going back. The coffee is the best tasting I have made in my house. The smell in the morning is oh so delightful. I will say the coffee I use never tasted this good in my Mr. Coffee. I have a couple of brands and all taste better in the Farberware. The only drawback is the time needed to make a pot. I am retired so it doesn’t bother me. If you are a worker bee, you will probably not want to spend the extra time. My 6 cup brew takes about 9-10 minutes to start the perk (boil) cycle. I then turn the dial to 3 and set the timer for 7 minutes. I turn it to the lowest setting when the timer goes off. I normally wait a few minutes before I pour the first cup too. I leave my burner on warm. I know this is getting lengthy but I also must say this; If you are like me, trying to decide between the 8 cup or the 12 cup, then here is a tip. If you read closely, you will notice the 8 cup comes with a plastic knob and the 12 cup comes with glass. I can attest to the 12 cup being glass. I can not attest to the 8 cup being plastic, however the descriptions validate my findings too. So if you decide to purchase the 8 cup and then buy the glass knob, you will be at the cost for the 12 cup pot anyway. Add to that if you compare the dimensions of the two closely, you will not find much of a size difference in the two pots. I would have chose the 8 cup if it had the glass knob. I hope this reviews helps to clarify these points for others out there. I will close by saying that I am very happy with my Farberware 12 cup percolator. I have put a cover over the Mr. Coffee for now. I will not be going back to the weak and lukewarm drip coffee any time soon.Signed; Spoiled in PA

    Product As Promised

    It’s a little heavy for me, but it’s worth it. The taste is good. Easy upkeep. Well built enough to be my last pot. Bought 8 cup then 9 cup percolaters. Had issues with boht. I use mug and had to make more than one pot each day. This makes enough for one day. Now I just need to find a coffee brand that has the right grind. I remember mom sending me to Safeway to buy coffee and telling me to make sure to set the right number on the grinder.

    compared to other stovetop percolators, this is KING

    Hi. I leave very few reviews due primarily to laziness and skepticism (do folks really take these to heart, given the wide range of griping?). But, I have found myself shopping for a number of items online lately, and relying on reviews, so here is my paying it forward. And no, I do not work for any coffee company.I am a bit of a stovetop percolator fanatic. Simply put, nothing beats percolator coffee. Drips aren’t hot enough, take up crazy amounts of counter space, and the coffee is subpar. French presses produce gritty coffee and don’t keep heat, and electric percolators have gone down the tube in quality since grandma bought hers (I have one from the 60s that I bought on ebay, and after using daily, it STILL outperforms my previous standard, the 2008 Farberware electric percolator).That said, I have tested a bunch of stovetop percolators for various uses, like camping, power outages, and general “getting off the grid” living. I have had several Colemans, the Italian-style caffeteria, the french press, a few electric percs, and this Farberware. Trust, this is a fantastic product. But how can one tell?The things to look for in stovetop percolators are:1. Quality of the construction. Stainless steel is best. Looks for a sturdy build with a nice balance of weight, a large enough size for your needs, and [very important!] the placement of the handle. It should be easy to clutch, be far enough to NOT be above the heat source, and sturdy enough to handle the weight of a full pot. Screwed on means it can easily be tightened, which is good, and the material of this percolator stays cool and has a nice, tactile grip.2. Solid/durable interior parts (stem, basket). This was a major downer for the Colemans. Too many complaints of people finding theirs bent upon arrival! Plus, the stem and pot shouldn’t ever look dried our or “rusted” in that stainless steel way. I used my Colemans only a few times, and the stem/pot looked scary to drink out of. I can’t help but wonder if there is a residue or something entering my coffee. This percolator looks as great on the inside as it does on the outside. Just look at the pictures. No hiding anything there!3. A plastic knob. While the glass knobs are more aesthetically pleasing, the entire structure of a percolator means that the knob WILL break at some point. The difference is that glass expands/contracts when the percolator is heating, and then shards from the threads end up in your coffee even if the knob hasn’t visibly or entirely broken off. This is dangerous. The plastic is just as effective for viewing the strength of your coffee, without the terrifying possibility of swallowing glass. The plastic won’t shred and cut your throat. Complaints about the plastic knobs breaking are ridiculous; ALL PERCOLATORS will have broken knobs at some point. Accept it.4. Does it clean easily? Exterior: Especially if you take this camping, you will be on a open flame, so will the material tarnish? This one stays clean, and can easily be polished, if you are the polishing kind, if you are exacting in how mirror-like you wish it to be. Interior: there are no sharp crevices, lips, awkward pouring spouts here to cut you or your sponge as you move on in to clean up. Pieces (including the lid) are removed with ease and without the nails-on-the-chalkboard sound of cheap, flimsy metal material.The other common complaint is that the coffee isn’t right. That is not the perc, that’s your method. Try varying your coffee/water ratio, your boiling time vs your simmering time. Be patient; stovetops take longer but they produce infinitely better coffee.From a practical/frugal standpoint, after removing the stem and basket, this pot doubles very nicely (with style!) as a kettle. You can’t go wrong. Plus, it is quite a lot bigger than it looks online. You can get at least 10 cups.Although I alternate between electric and stovetop for my daily use, this baby is one thing that I shamelessly refuse to lend out, refuse to really even hail its praises for fear of the inevitable “Can I borrow it?” that happens. I have had it for 3 years now and nothing has broken, nothing has taken a nose-dive in terms of quality, and I am actively excited/grateful/proud/vain about it EVERY time I use it.If you buy one of the Coleman enamel ones, or the odd camping specific ones with a D-ring for a handle, you’ll just end up buying another one after you get mad at its ineptitude. I would even recommend this one over the majority of electric percolators, since the rest on the market currently are just crap.Get yourself some good coffee beans, some good water, and this baby, and you’ll be a coffee addict! Cheers!

    Coffee Lovers Rejoice!!!! This is the Best!!!!!!

    [UPDATE: After two years of daily use, it continues to flawlessly percolate incredibly delicious, hot coffee. But the little screw-in rings around the plastic top finally began to break down, so I ordered a couple glass replacement tops (they come in a two-pack):

    2 pack Fitz-All Replacement Percolator Top, Small (2)

    Works great. Looks a little different as the top is a little bigger and you can’t use the black ring around the base (it won’t fit under the glass), but I don’t have to worry about plastic in the brew.]I’ve had this pot for close to a year now (purchased Feb 2014), and just have to write a review. After my last drip coffee maker broke after only two years (because they’re all made in China now out of cheap junk), I decided to try once again to find a better, more affordable way to brew an excellent, smooth, delicious and HOT cup of coffee. I’ve tried them all, drip, press, pour over (including the popular Japanese Hario), Italian stovetop Bialetti, none of them make it the way I like it, and most of them deliver lukewarm coffee by the time you get it to your lips – and I hate microwaved coffee, tastes awful. The only thing I haven’t tried is a Keurig type single-serve machine, as they’re expensive and will just break in time, same problem as drip.And then I came across this little wonder on Amazon, read the astonishingly good reviews and decided to risk giving it a try. I mean, $20 isn’t a lot to risk. And WOW. I remember my folks percolating coffee when I was growing up, they used an electric percolator at home and a stovetop percolator for camping, but I assumed that was an inferior way to make coffee given all the fancy gadgets on the market now. Was I ever wrong!It not only makes good, hot, smooth coffee, the smoothest coffee any maker can make. It brings out flavor nuances I didn’t even know coffee had, makes cheap grocery store coffee taste wonderful – and for the first time in my life, I’m experimenting with all kinds of coffee beans from all over the world, and finding out why everyone raves about rainforest shade-grown coffee so much, especially organic. I mean, I’ve tried it before, I just didn’t think it tasted that much better for the price. But it turns out that percolating coffee at a low temperature (simmering, percolating is NOT boiling) for just the right amount of time (5-7 minutes, once it starts percing) keeps the water just hot enough, and saturates the grinds so thoroughly, that every bit of flavor is extracted along with the coffee sugars that shade-grown coffee produces, with not a hint of bitterness (cheap coffee is grown fast in the sun, and doesn’t have time to develop the full flavors or sugars). It gives the coffee not only flavor and depth, but subtle sweetness. And talk about flavor! Depending on what you’re drinking, where it was grown and how it was roasted, you’ll taste earthy notes, sweet notes, smoky notes, chocolate notes, fruit notes, caramel notes, nutty notes – it’s every bit as fun as tasting different wines or handcrafted beers!But like I said, it makes even cheap coffee taste really good, and it even tastes delicious black – I’ve always loaded up my coffee with cream or milk, because black coffee has always tasted horrible to me. Not anymore! I enjoy it both ways now.I’ve gotten into it so much, I’ve even started measuring grounds by the gram on a digital food scale, instead of just scooping it out – the difference in grams really affects the flavor, and you can fine-tune the amount to get it just how you like it. And I’ve found that different beans and roasts need different amounts to taste the best, some more, some less.And the coffee is HOT. I make a full pot, and pour it into a good-quality Thermos carafe (I use a

    Thermos Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Carafe, 51-Ounce

    ), keeps it hot and fresh-tasting for hours. No more lukewarm coffee, or burned coffee from sitting on the drip machine plate. And if the power goes out, I can make coffee outside on the gas grill, or take it camping with me.The great thing about a stovetop brewer instead of electric (I considered both) is you can experiment with temperature, length of percing and amount of grounds to get the coffee to taste just how YOU want it to. I’ve really had fun experimenting, and find that rainforest coffee can be perced longer (because more sugars and less acids), whereas cheap coffee in a can (sun-grown, full of acids and few sugars) should be perced less, or the acids start to come out.A few practical notes: first, read the instructions. It comes with great instructions for brewing different amounts and strengths and other helpful tips.It takes longer to brew a pot than drip machines, about 20 minutes for a full pot, 15 to bring it to perc temperature (enough to grab a quick shower) and 5-7 percing. And you can’t set it on a timer so it’s ready when you wake up. It also takes a little extra washing up each day, between the pot itself and the thermos carafe, and it needs to be hand-dried on the outside to keep up the nice shine (or you get dried water spots on it). For coffee this good, it’s worth it! And it’s nice to know you have CLEAN parts each day (instead of mold or bacteria that can build up in drip machines).But very busy people might not like that part of it so much, and sometimes I use a press or something else for a quick cup on super busy days when I have to get up and out really early and don’t have time to wait for the pot to brew or wash it up after. Or I just get up a little earlier, I hate to miss my percolated coffee…Experiment to find out how long it takes to reach a good steady, percolating for the amount you want to brew – and then USE A TIMER. If you forget to turn it down once it starts percing, it will overheat and boil and produce a horrible, nasty tasting brew. NEVER boil the grounds! Heat on medium-high heat, not high, to avoid boiling, and turn it down low or medium-low for percing.It works great on gas or electric stoves. I have a ceramic top electric, set it right on the burner (no trivet needed), heat it on 8 (out of 10) and perc it on 2.8. You can perc it hotter, up to 4 or 5 maybe, it just depends on how you like it to taste. I find that the lowest temperature to keep it percolating regularly brings out the smoothest, sweetest, mellowest flavor, which is how I like it. People who like a stronger, punchier cup can use more grounds at hotter temps. Experiment!Some have complained about the clear plastic top deforming with the heat. I keep mine a little loose as plastic expands with heat, and have had no problems. But you can also buy glass replacement tops through Amazon. You don’t have to use a filter, but I do (just a regular drip basket filter, which I poke down over the stem in the basket), as I use a lot of pre-ground coffee which is made for drip machines and finer than percolator grind, hard to find and a little coarser, a little of which can get into the brew, though not much. The paper also helps filter out the oils which can contribute to heart disease. I just dump it all into my composter each day (coffee grounds are great for the garden, btw). If the spring that supports the basket on the stem ever wears out, you can buy a replacement for that, too.Someone complained in an older review that the handle broke off because glued. Either the manufacturer changed it or the reviewer was talking about a different percolator, because this handle appears to be screwed and riveted on. In fact the whole unit appears well made and solid.Over time, coffee oils will build up on the inside, including inside the stem and inside a couple of curled narrow lips inside the pot (one at the top and one at the bottom, due to how the pot is constructed), staining it and which can affect flavor. The way to get rid of them is to perc a pot using dishwasher powder instead of grounds – scours it clean, and leaves it looking like new. I’ve done this twice now in the nine months I’ve had it, and it works great.In all, I’m amazed this humble little pot can produce such a fantastic brew. Turns out they really knew what they were doing in the “old days,” and they did it better! No more newfangled coffee gadgets for me, filling up landfills as they break, just delicious, smooth, incredibly tasty HOT coffee from a pot that should last a lifetime.

    Rediscover the best! There’s a reason they’ve been around for over a century

    I was lucky enough to be born in an earlier time – when things worked and lasted. Except for the Corvair and the Ford Pinto, that is. I find as I have matured into middle age that much modern “technology” such as the latest high-tech pots and pans, cookware, and coffee apparatus tend to complicate the obvious instead of improving the original. They are designed to take my money and not much else. For years, I would keep an open mind, spend a lot more money for a “better mousetrap” that overcomplicates but doesn’t do the job any better, and many times, worse than the original concept. For instance, I rediscovered cast iron cookware that my folks used when I was younger, which when treated properly, is ten times better than any Teflon non-stick gadgetry that only lasts a year or two and sends cooked chemical remnants into your body. Yes, cast iron is non-stick – the best. And it cleans up so quickly. Properly cared for (which is easy) cast iron never sticks and lasts forever and will outlast me.So when I got tired of lukewarm, luke-brewed coffee from machines that are terribly expensive and last just a couple of years, and all plastic, I again went back to my roots. I have an expensive Keurig and a $1700.00 combo expresso machine. But I can’t get a decent cup of coffee that I am fortunate enough to remember from earlier days. That is until I again went back to the basics, which has never failed me. They all have their uses and none of them are “wrong”. If I want a cup of coffee as I’m running out the door, Keurig fits the bill. I want an expresso after dinner, my Italian combo machine that cost a fortune works for me. Not judging.Have there been improvements and innovation? Certainly yes. Electric percolators of today do a much better job of regulating heat and brew time, for instance. That controls bitterness and overbrewing. But many of them don’t last longer than a couple of years. With a stove top percolator, you are in total control, you are back to basics and back to the best cup of coffee you will ever have if you like a full-flavored and slightly robust (not burnt or bitter) cup of coffee. Sadly, many people don’t know how good it can be.If you like your coffee apparatus now and what it does for you, fantastic, you are in the sweet spot, but don’t be afraid to try what has worked for decades. You might be pleasantly surprised. You may not know what you’re missing.This stove top percolator is top quality, never fails and will last for decades if cared for properly. It doesn’t take much. But if you just want to press a button and have “instant coffee”, or coffee instantly with no care or time involved, If you want a brew where the water barely touches the coffee before it touches your cup, If you want to pay a lot of money for things that never make it into your cup (k-cups, pods, filters, cleaners, etc), if you want to “clean” parts of your “apparatus” you will never see, and trust that, if you want to replace that thing every few years, if you like lots of buttons, lights, beeps, timers, scrolling LED readouts, warning after warning to clean this and replace that, If you want coffee out of a Star Trek replicator, don’t buy this. But if you just want the best cup of Joe on the planet, enjoy the brewing experience, slow it down and enjoy…this Faberware piece of simple magic can be yours, forever. Take the pace down a little bit, get the plastic and chemicals out of your life, save a whole bunch of bucks and don’t let your coffee pot order you around…and get back to basic mountain grown fresh HOT coffee, and I do mean HOT. My advice for what it’s worth, you will never go back, save a ton of money, and really, really enjoy coffee as it was meant to be. Whatever you decide, take your time to enjoy your coffee experience. You can make more money, but you can’t make more time. Enjoy what you have left.I’ve never had to replace anything on this pot, and it is certain to outlast me! So simple, so good.

    Coffee tastes WAY BETTER than Keurig or Mr. Coffee, and the percolator is reliable!

    I’ve had this little percolator since early December and LOVE it. It’s true, you really can’t get a better tasting cup of coffee than from a percolator (just like grandma and great-grandma used to make!). There’s no burnt or bitter taste and the temp is super hot (as coffee should be)! Yes, a percolator takes a little more time and effort but the results are SO enjoyable! I take my coffee black, so I can really taste the difference since I’m not adding creamer and flavors which can help mask any bitter/burnt taste. After pouring the first cup, I transfer the coffee from the percolator into a thermal carafe for my next cup of fresh, hot coffee. Seriously, better taste than Keurig or Mr. Coffee.Years ago, I was loyal to the original Mr. Coffee style brewer but the ‘warmer’ cooked the coffee after that first cup. I was happy when Keurig came around because I could get a fresh cup of coffee at any time …. UNTIL …. my Keurig stopped working … just as the warranty expired!!! Keurig customer service would not replace my unit even though they admitted to the known issue of water not pumping ??? Keurig was only interested in offering a $20 coupon to purchase another of their products. Sorry Keurig, your machines are not cheap and I’ve been a loyal customer for many years but no more. In fairness, this was my 3rd Keurig, previous 2 units worked fine. The 3rd unit was an upgrade to a slim version for brewing either a pod or a pot (no bells & whistles).I want a coffee appliance that will NOT fail and this percolator is IT! I percolate my coffee on an electric stove since my appliances are not gas, and the coffee is perfect if you follow the included directions. I have a whole house generator so even without a gas stove, I can make good coffee. As another reviewer suggested, I emptied my unused coffee pods into my coffee container, so no waste there. And I’m SAVING MONEY by not buying coffee pods. Suppose I should thank Keurig for not backing their product and pushing me over the edge …. otherwise, I wouldn’t have this fabulous percolator!! If you’re sitting on the fence, jump, and buy the percolator! The icing on the cake is the stainless steel is beautiful … so shiny and elegant!

    Best Coffee Pot and No PLASTIC

    No more plastic! This is one of my best purchases on Amazon! I love the stainless steel coffee pot! I spent hours searching on Amazon for a coffee pot that didn’t have plastic parts inside. I couldn’t find anything, this popped up on my feed one evening and I started reading the reviews which were great. It is stainless steel and makes hot delicious coffee. I buy organic coffee, and put that in the filter basket and perk it on my stove. Initially, I thought it would take a long time to perk, but it really does perk in about 6 to 7 minutes. I’ve learned to leave it on longer and let it brew until we can smell the coffee to get an even tastier cup of coffee. Sometimes I mix espresso or organic hot cocoa in with the coffee to get a different flavor. I do think the coffee has a better flavor when it perks a few extra minutes! I’m finally done with plastic keurig containers and a coffee pot that runs hot water or throw a plastic water storage container! I’ve been using this for about two months and the price for the pot is excellent!

    This percolater is a joy to use

    This product works as described. I have switched from my Mr Coffee to this coffee maker. The brew is hotter and tastier. What buyers should know. My brewer arrived with minor dings near the top of the pot; they don’t affect the way the products works. Although few grounds wind up in the coffee, I use Melita 4-cup filters in the brewing cup. I put a tiny hole in the bottoms of the filters so they will fit around the “pump” tube. Once the coffee begins to perk, it takes five to seven minutes before the joe is ready to drink, and it’s HOT, so be careful. The pot is easily cleaned after using. The only down-side to the pot is this: There are markings on the OUTSIDE of the pot showing marks for 4, 6, and 8 cups of coffee, but they are so faint you can’t see the markings INSIDE the pot. Not a big problem, since I just put in four measuring-cups of water; I don’t drink any more than that.

    Stylish, Functional, and Just What I Needed

    I love how this stainless steel percolator complements my other kitchen appliances—it has a clean, classic look that’s very pleasant to the eye. I mostly use it to boil water, and it works perfectly for that. The 12-cup capacity is just right for my needs, whether I’m making tea, coffee, or just heating water. It’s sturdy, well-made, and easy to clean. A great addition to my kitchen!

    High quality. Built to last. Love percolating/anticipation!

    I LOVE this percolator very much! It is high quality stainless steel. It does need immediately drying, after washing tho to keep hard water spots from dulling the shine. Which I love. It is 3 walls thick. The in between wall was said to be aluminum, to help maintain even heat. (I asked Rufus the ai). But the inner and outer walls were both good stainless steel. The handle is solid, excellent. Great for handling when coffee is hot. Looks to last a long time. I love that the lid has a glass handle so to watch the coffee percolate, and get darker. Also it’s not plastic, so better for our health, and higher quality. I did try it once, and the coffee was fine. But… I had to return this one. The 12 cup capacity is huge! I sat this pot next to a gallon bottle of water and they looked the same size! Maybe the pot is a touch 🤏 smaller.I only drink one cup in the morning and one cup at noon. It would be very rare for me to make 12 cups, or to have that much company who all like coffee. It was too huge for me alone. So I am returning this one and getting the smaller size. It does look to be built to last. Nice and heavy. Not cheap and “tin”y. And the inner cup that holds the grounds is very well made to hold the grounds as it percolates.. without getting into the coffee. I like the size of the slits, and the number of them. The spout is also easy to pour without spilling any coffee. It was easy to clean. I will be ordering the smaller size. This brand looks very good quality, solid built. (I also may get a heating plate so I don’t have to use the stove top, which will save on electricity). Also will be great for outdoors, being non-electric. I do love this product all around!! 👍🏻👍🏻

    I absolutely love my Farberware Yosemite Percolator! It’s sturdy, beautifully designed, and makes the most flavorful coffee I’ve ever brewed at home. The stainless steel construction gives it a classic look and ensures it lasts for years. I also love that it doesn’t require paper filters – just rinse and reuse! It’s become a staple in our morning routine and even works great over a campfire. Highly recommend this to any coffee lover who appreciates simplicity and bold flavor.
