Rapid Brew Stainless Steel Stovetop Coffee Percolator, 2-12 cup Review

If you have mineral tap water that repeatedly ruins automatic coffee brewers, then try a stove top pot. We purchased one of these from another vendor for over $50 a few years ago and we're still using it daily. I don't see any reason to remove the lid like another reviewer said and the steel has no dings or warps at all after much use. When I saw that Amazon had one at this price I decided to buy another to keep for backup. We set the stove timer to signal in 10 - 12 minutes then turn down the control from high to low. It's easy to control the intensity and temperature of the coffee and the brewing basket is large, providing good water flow. This is a big improvement over the inconsistent results we got with automatic brewers and it doesn't get stopped up with mineral deposits.

Farberware 50124 Classic Yosemite Stainless Steel Percolator Review

Perked coffee is old school, to be sure, but a well-made cup of percolated brew is robust and satisfying in a way that drip coffee isn't. Not only does the percolation process provide a deeper and fuller mouth, I think, but a percolator, bubbling away, is a lovely sight and sound.
If you don't like perked coffee, don't bother with any percolator. But if you are interested in something other than drip brew, consider this Farberware percolator. I'm not one to ooh and ahh over design, but this is a darned handsome piece of kitchen equipment. Take a look and the large picture and I will spare you the adjectives. :)
The stainless steel construction makes it sturdier and heftier than thin-metal percolators you might buy in the camping gear section of a chain store. While the name "Yosemite" evokes coffee bubbling over a campfire, I'd probably not use this on a wood fire to avoid blackening. I mean, this thing really is shiny and pretty. But as heavy-duty as it is, perhaps it would clean up well.
It's a capacious pot, making eight cups of coffee. The interior basket and rod are well made, fitting tightly together and clamping in place with the lock-down lid. It makes more coffee than my old electric percolator, but it does take up a burner on the stove-top.
Lastly, should you buy this unit, remember: Perked coffe may be good, but it's a danged sight hotter than drip brew. Of course, you'll probably figure that out for yourself...
