Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Medelco 8 Cup Glass Stovetop Percolator
Customer Review: a tried and true classic
Summary: 4 Stars
Ok, so maybe these aren't the "latest and greatest", but they sure do the job. Only cons I have are that the "instructions" are not quite sufficient, unless you already know what you're doing. Thankfully my grandmother has one, and gave me some tips (like using a filter *in* the basket, since the standard grind of coffee they sell today is too fine for this, and would fall through the little basket holes otherwise), and also, how much coffee to put in the basket is anyone's guess....as is how long to percolate it. I guess it all depends how strong you like your coffee, but for someone who has had the whole process automated *for me* for as long as I can think and I've never had to gauge any of that myself, it was a bit daunting. But after a few trial runs, you get the hang of it.
Personally, I bought this as a backup coffee maker for when my in-laws come (we have a tassimo, and with how much coffee they drink, it's imperative to have a whole pot (or 2) available to them...otherwise I would run out of t-discs daily...) And also, it was a bit of a nostalgia thing too. Like I said, my grandparents have one, and to this day, it is what they brew their coffee in every morning, and so it means a lot to me to have one too now.
Bottom line, it's good as a backup, it's good for people who really like to have a "hands on" experience, or don't want to invest in one of the big counter-top models, and my favorite part; the whole thing is dishwasher safe! :)
