Review: Simple, clean and better - I switched from drip coffee makers to this and I am VERY happy I did. It takes up way less space, is super easy to clean and makes MUCH better coffee. No filter needed, too. I highly recommend this percolator if you want to add simplicity to your coffee routine.
Review: Tiny, excellent coffee pot - Recently I was looking for a totally plastic-free way to make more than one cup of coffee at a time. Currently, there are no automatic coffee makers available that fit this stringent requirement. Most plastic-free setups are single-cup pour-over or require stovetop use, and I’ve got those already. Enter this tiny electric percolator. I already own a couple of larger vintage percolators and use them from time to time to make quantities of coffee when needed. However, some or all of those percolator parts are aluminum. I own a steel stovetop percolator, but for daily use, I wanted something I could fill, turn on, and let do its thing without me having to hover or add water or monitor it. This is a great percolator for one or two people who might use 12-15-oz to-go mugs. The total amount of water at the “6 cups” level is about 26 ounces after brewing (I know; it’s weird coffee math). Coffee snobs and people who make profits off of selling more coffee beans for wasteful brewing processes (I am looking at you, cold brew) will tell you that percolated coffee is horrible because the same water perks though the same grounds a few times and the oils aren’t “extracted” from the brew. Don’t listen to them. Perked coffee tastes better than anything else I’ve had, even those fancy, $6, coffee shop “pour over” brews. I like bitter and cloudy. It makes me feel alive! Maybe it’s because I am a child of the seventies and I was raised on percolator (and boiled/cowboy) coffee, but percolator brew tastes richer and more full-bodied, and, most importantly, it can be much more economical to make. One level tablespoon per cup seems to work with almost any grind. “Percolator” grind is coarser than drip, which might waste more beans, but you also won’t get grinds in the bottom of the pot or your cup if that really bothers you. What with coffee being a tropical, imported bean from which we are losing trees and carbon sequestering, making an economical pot of coffee should be a priority, and not wasting precious, imported beans seems logical. Not to mention the aforementioned quest to go plastic-free as possible for morning beverage-making. You can get paper filters that fit these percolators, and this machine comes with a few of those. That paper bit will filter and capture some of the oils and grounds that make percolator coffee objectionable to some people. The filter basket works just fine, though, without them. Most commercial grinders at stores still have a “percolator” setting, and you can grind beans at home slightly more coarsely if needed. I find that a regular, pre-ground drip grind works fine in this pot, though. I know. I am utterly barbaric! Cleanup of this pot is easy and the innards can be machine-washed. I expect this thing will still be perking long after I am gone, assuming we still have a viable power grid in the 2100s. If not, my ancestors can use my stovetop percolator over an open fire. Assuming they can get the beans, that is. Enjoy your coffee while we still have access to it, fellow Westerners!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This looks like stainless steel on the outside, but the rougher surface inside has to be aluminum!! Any proof from manufacturer that this**
A: According to the manufacturer, I telephoned them (2022). It is not stainless steel on the inside. I have returned mine. I feel sad about it but I have only non-carcinogenic and non-arthritis provoking items in my kitchen. This was not up to those standards.

**Q: If I plugged this pot into a timer (like you might use for a lamp), would it turn on?  Or do you have to be there to press a button or something?**
A: Yes, it sure would.  My husband set ours up with a timer and it kicks on every morning at 6:00 am and turns off at 8:00 am. Just plug it in like you would use for a lamp.  On another note, the only issue I have experienced with these electric percolators is they draw a lot of juice, and can blow a fuse.  I can't plug ours in on the counter where I have the toaster plugged in (even if it's not in use).  Just watch out for that.  But they work great with timers.

**Q: Where is rhis percolaror made?**
A: I really don't know, I have a 12 cup percolaror and it says on the bottom made in China. This is the third one I have owned and I do love it.

**Q: I know that Presto percolators are made of stainless steel, but is it 18/10 stainless steel?  Asking about both 6 and 12 cup products...  Thanks!**
A: The Presto® stainless steel percolators are made of 18-10 stainless steel. If there are any questions or concerns regarding your Presto® coffee maker, you can reach out to Presto Customer Service Department Monday-Friday 8:00am - 4:15pm Central Time at 1-800-877-0441 or contact1@gopresto.com

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HOT, DELICIOUS, COFFEE, EASY TO USE AND EASY TO CLEAN!
*by L***U on April 22, 2026*

Today was my first time using this Presto 6-Cup Stainless Steel Percolator, and I was quite impressed with the results. I filled it up to the 6-cup level, added 3 level measurements of ground coffee, and was very satisfied with the taste and how hot it was. My Cuisinart coffee maker broke down a couple of days ago, and now was my chance to replace it with stainless steel, avoiding all plastic contamination. So far, I am very happy with this Presto stainless steel percolator and will update this review if needed. I will play around with the measurements to make it a bit stronger, which is my preference, but I must say that I was really happy with the results after using it for the first time! I had plenty of unbleached coffee filters left, so I was able to use them by pressing down in the middle, which made a hole in the filter, and the filter was then able to be folded over as well. I saw a few coffee grinds at the bottom of the percolator after I finished pouring the last cup of coffee, but found no grinds in the coffee itself. I didn't time it, but from start to finish, the coffee took under ten minutes to brew before the light came on. Pouring was easy and there was no leakage whatsoever. I would definitely highly recommend this percolator! And also, to my pleasant surprise, it was not noisy at all! Just regular brewing sounds, but nothing crazy like the old percolators from years ago. I highly recommend this Presto Percolator! Addendum: I find this percolator works best with using less than 6 cups of water, as it allows me to use the same amount of coffee I would use for 6 cups, but gives me a bolder, stronger taste. When I fill it to 6 cups, I find there are more coffee grinds in the coffee and at the bottom of the pot, when I add more coffee to make it stronger.
