B&B membership has its percs
Well, once again B&B has got me chasing down a relic from the past - this time I scored a vintage Revere Ware stovetop percolator (8 cup I think, holds approximately 40 ounces of water below the basket). For those of you perking, what are your suggested times? I have tried an 8 minute perc with about 77g of coarse ground (French Press sized) and found it pretty good, but wondered what others are doing? Is there a big difference with an electric perc? I'll admit that the one I have is fussier to operate than the Technivorm that I'd been using, but it makes better coffee .. so I've been brewing in the percolator and then using the thermal carafe of the Technivorm to hold the finished brew ..
Any tips?
