I had no idea percolator coffee could taste this good! The unique brewing process, where water cycles through the coffee grounds multiple times, enhances the richness and depth of flavor—delivering a smooth, satisfying taste without bitterness or a burnt aftertaste when using my favorite coffee beans. Personally, I find this method produces a more complex and enjoyable taste compared to drip, pour-over, or French press brewing. Of course, it’s a matter of personal preference.I tend to favor bold, espresso-like flavors and typically drink my coffee black, occasionally adding a bit of plant-based milk. I also enjoy small, concentrated servings without unnecessary dilution. Fortunately, I seemed to get the coffee-to-water ratio just right on my first try, as the percolator brewed a fantastic batch that everyone enjoyed. With multiple espresso machines and other coffee gadgets in my household for comparison, this percolator definitely met my expectations.This percolator kettle has a generous 14-cup capacity, making it perfect for large gatherings or for those who enjoy multiple cups throughout the day. While I didn’t need to brew the full 14 cups during my initial test, I found that the kettle must be at least half full to percolate properly. A great solution is to brew a few cups, enjoy some immediately, and store the rest in a thermos to keep it hot for later.One of my favorite aspects of this percolator is its all-stainless steel construction, featuring an eco-friendly wooden handle instead of plastic. Stainless steel is a much healthier option compared to aluminum or coffee makers with plastic brewing components. Since this percolator is uncoated and free from enamel, I don’t have to worry about chipping if it gets bumped. Additionally, the internal components are removable, allowing the kettle to double as a standard water kettle when needed.The set also includes four stainless steel cups, which is a thoughtful addition. Everything is well-made, high quality, and relatively lightweight—making it ideal for home use as well as travel. I’m very pleased with this set and highly recommend it!

This set worked well on a campfire, camp stove and induction stove top. It came with an extra glass knob for the pot lid. I was impressed by it all.

It's always been the best way to make coffee. The smell at a camp fire is the best. Cups are nice glad I purchased.

The cups exceeded my expectations for camping cups - they are not overly tiny, they seem well-made, and generally of good quality.The coffee pot is OK - it works, it's reasonably well made - the metal is a little thinner than I expected, so overall it's a bit more delicate/fragile than I anticipated. That's really the bottom line - I like it, it will get a lot of use, it will require more careful packing than some other gear - but I think it's just a bit overpriced (at about $55) for the quality. The manufacturer does include a spare percolator "knob" (the clear glass knob), which is greatly appreciated.So - I recommend you think about your needs - I got a titanium french press for less money. It's indestructible, it's very light, it works well - it also serves one. If you really want to make a pot of coffee, and you prefer the percolator style, I certainly wouldn't recommend against this one - particularly if the price came down a little.
