From the roaster

Too coarse a grind, too little coffee, or insufficiently tamping the grounds before brewing can all lead to inadequate pressure for a proper brew.
It is important to note that the amount of espresso extracted will vary depending on the grind size and amount and reprogramming may be needed when the size and amount are adjusted.Please refer to user guide or user manual or user guide (provided below in PDF) before first use
Durable stainless steel construction and maintains consistent brew speed: 1-cup p/min
Automatic keep warm mode. Volts -120V, 60Hz
Cool-touch handle and lid knob with rolled edges for safe and easy handling

The best little coffee maker I've ever used!

I have had this same unit (and its "big brother") for at least five years and absolutely LOVE IT! So, when a family member requested a coffee percolator for Xmas, THIS is what I chose for them... I love it for several reasons.First, and most important, it makes wonderful, VERY hot coffee.

Tough little Percolator! Works fast!

No complaints, just love it! It’s entirely made of stainless steel, only takes four or five minutes to percolate, when you hear it, stop percolating it’s done and you pull out the inside parts. Pour them out and can save the rest in the fridge with the lid on they only drink one cup at a time.

Great coffee

I just got this percolator for Mother's Day and since I am the only person in my household who drinks coffee it is the perfect size for me. So every morning I drink one mug which is equal to two measured cups. So I filled the coffee pot with three measured cups of water just to be on the safe side.

Great tasting coffee in 5 minutes!

This pot makes excellent coffee in about 5minutes.The coffee is very hot & delicious.The size is perfect. It’s an attractive pot & is easy to clean.I make 4 cups and it fills my big mug.The only drawback is the placement of the plugunder the end of the handle.
