Coletti Butte Campfire Percolator €“ 14 Cup Stainless Steel

Went to a cabin a while back and they had a perculator similar to this. It turned my regular old grounds I brought into a masterpeice in my cup. So here we are. I dont write reviews u less its really bad or the opposite.This will make you one of your best coffee cups. Even though I'm giving it some cons to be transparent for another buyer, I think they are minor for myself and that the pros are just too good to give it anything less then 5 stars. Buy it. The pros: Lots of coffee. Lots and lots for 2 or a big cup for 6 . Very easy to brew Best coffee I've had in a long long time Durable, no parts to break or wear out. Portable, can store coffee bag in unit. Very easy to get squeaky clean.( part of the cons aswell) No need to buy extra filters (included) works fine without The cons: Longer but doable brew time.At our elevation(higher)with room tem water 24 to 28 minutes that's including 4 min of purculation. Bit of Grounds at bottom of cup at the last pour. Have to clean after each use(about 30 seconds to a min) No fill line.(it's the bottom hole on the spout) All that it's well made and just get it and never have to buy a coffee maker that breaks after 5/10 years. Really good full bodied coffee with no more bitter dish water.

Great little percolator. Very solidly built. With those circular paper filters, it leaves very few grounds in the pot. As stated, no aluminum (stop calling it "aluminium", you crazy Brits!) and no plastic. This works really well over a gas stove, takes longer on top of a wood stove due to the recessed area on the bottom.

Bon produit de qualité. Juste que je trouve qu'il devrait faire des troues plus petits ou vendre un screen en Stainless steel plus fin pour ne pas avoir du café dans le fond. Sinon c'est super

I really love this Coletti Butte Coffee Percolator that has ZERO plastic or aluminum!!! The only thing that I would change is that I wish it were 316 stainless steel because the lower grade of stainless really gives a metal taste to the brewed coffee. I would happily pay $10 more if it were the 316 stainless steel. One thing I want to mention is that it's SUPER important to NOT screw the glass lid-knob in tightly -- it needs to be LOOSELY screwed in, to allow steam to escape. Otherwise the glass knob will crack. The product instructions make this VERY CLEAR but I know how some people refuse to read instructions. LOL. Nice product, quality construction. I recommend it.

Overall pretty good but, I would prefer to have a removable lid plus no idea how to use the lower hoop. Went nuts looking at useless videos and not one referred to it. There was a hiccup trying to register for their lifetime guaranty, which was resolved promptly. But, I had a question about the function of a lower attachment on the percolator and re-emailed them twice requesting clarity and have just had a reply. The lower hoop is to apply a handle for pouring. Faith restored. So, its been a couple of months of use and that darn cover is a pain since it does not snap in place. When you tip over the pot to pour, you have to hold the cover down to avoid the basket from falling out. It would also be good to have a removable cover. Its just in the way when cleaning it plus the hinge is becoming looser with time. A classic situation of "form" over "function".
