USING THE PERCOLATOR
1. Before using for the first time, thoroughly wash
all parts of the percolator. (See the Cleaning and
Maintenance section of this booklet.)
2. Remove cover, basket, lid and pump tube with
spring. Using the measurement markings
(located inside the body) fill the percolator with the
desired amount of water. For best results, be sure
to use cold water when filling the percolator. When
preparing 4 cups, use the small circular marking
as the 4-cup level mark.
3. Run cold water over the coffee basket. Place
basket on top of pump tube. Add desired amount
of coffee according to level markings on basket.
To help keep small coffee grounds from sifting
through the holes in the basket, be certain to use
a grind designed for percolator coffee, or use a
coarse grind. Finer grinds may sift through
the holes.
4. Place basket and pump tube assembly into
percolator so bottom of tube fits into well. Place
basket cover on top of basket and push cover onto
top of percolator.
5. Plug base into standard household 120 volt AC
wall outlet. Brewing begins within seconds, and
continues at a rate of approximately one cup
per minute.
The following chart serves as a guide for preparing various
brew strengths. Amounts can be varied to suit personal taste
and particular coffees.

*1 coffee measure = 1 level tablespoon
6. Once brewing cycle is complete, indicator light will
illuminate to signal your coffee is ready.
Warning:
Be certain the percolating process has stopped
completely before removing cover.
7. Once brewing has completed, remove the
cover carefully and using a mitt or potholder,
remove the basket and pump tube.
Caution: do not touch the stainless steel parts of the
percolator, as they will be hot. Replace cover so it snaps
into place. You are now ready to enjoy a
flavorful cup of coffee.
8. Remove plug from percolator for easy serving.
Replace plug to keep coffee hot.
