Good quality product, excellent coffee

So, after this arrived I tried a few times with coffee beans I ground myself and the results were not great. I went to the Colletti YouTube account and watched several videos after which my coffee improved greatly. There is definitely a learning curve that has to be gone through but it is worth the effort. Apparently, the coffee beans need to be ground coarse. I ground some very coarse and it was no good again. So I suppose it depends on what is meant by coarse and I came to the conclusion that the coffee granules had to be somewhat bigger than the fine ground powder you put in a filter machine but there should not be great big bits of coffee pieces in the grind. The other thing is how long you percolate the coffee - the video I watched said 7 - 10 minutes so I went with the 10 minutes option. They also say heat the percolator with a low to medium low heat otherwise too much bitterness is released. In the end I finally started to get really good hot coffee which is what I was aiming for in the first place. It's worth noting that they say you should not overtighten the glass top piece so I just gently turned it until it stopped and that works very well. I also bought Colletti's spare pack of two glass tops just in case 1 breaks. It was just under £10. Finally you need to put the paper filters into the pot as recommended otherwise you run the risk of gritty coffee. Anyway, as already said, if you like your coffee this is worth the initial effort of learning the finer points of how to percolate your coffee.

Build quality isn’t the greatest, the hinge is a little loose, not the end of the world, it's not about to fall off, the rest of it is pretty well made, steel looks to be good quality and it does make a great cup of coffee.

Great quality easy to use tasty coffee!

Looks and feels really nice. I like my coffee and have used several methods to make it and have thought about giving this a go for quite a while. Simple to use and after a few attempts I managed to get a decent cup of coffee out of it. The smell of coffee brewing is a real plus.

The COLETTI Bozeman Coffee Percolator is undoubtedly a beautiful and well-made object. The design is classic and looks great on a stovetop or as part of a camping setup. However, I personally found the coffee it produced to be unpleasant, no matter how much I adjusted the brewing process. Despite using half a pound of coffee in my attempts, I was unable to get it to taste good to me. That said, taste is subjective, and I gave the percolator to a friend who enjoys the coffee it makes. For someone who appreciates the distinct flavour of percolated coffee, this might be a great choice. It’s well-built and easy to use, with no issues in functionality. If you like the taste of percolated coffee and value aesthetics, this percolator could work well for you. For those used to drip coffee or espresso, it may take some adjustment.

It's a complete change for me having used machines and a cafetiere (french press) over the years. I've never had a percolator like this. It's really a bit of a revelation just how good this is. It makes 3 mugs of strong coffee which sets me up for the day and I'm loving it. It's easy to use, set up and clean and takes about 15 minutes from start to finish on a low heat on my gas hob. I would recommend this to anyone who loves coffee. One last thing to add. It comes with some paper filters. I checked and to buy 100 of these is, I think, a little expensive, obviously you can judge for yourself. So I bought 10 cafetiere replacement mesh screens. 4 inch in diameter. £4. You only need one which will last for ages, does the job for fine ground coffee and is reusable. Just sayin. Anyway just get one. You won't regret it.

Very good quality of this coffee pot w/ percolator. During the winter season, enjoying warn coffee at the brew desired

Kaffee schmeckt super, funktioniert wie sie soll. Wir nutzen die Kanne täglich mehrmals täglich wenn wir mit dem Wohnmobil unterwegs sind. Kleiner Tipp -man sollte sich die Filter dazu kaufen - sonst hat man zu viel Kaffebrösel im Kaffee

I am really enjoying percolator coffee. It is a simple and quick way to make a quality coffee. The pot is easy to clean. With quite a large collection of coffee making implements, this is the favourite. To make a single mug of coffee, I use about 500ml of cold water and 25-30g of fairly coarsely ground beans. Put it on medium high heat until it starts to perk, turn the heat to medium low and perk for 7 minutes. >>>>>>delicious caffeine.

Don't order i returned the product due to broken handle on delivery. No refund till date

I drink a lot of coffee. I make it every morning and drink several cups. Wanting to get away from plastic components in all drip coffee makers, I decided to see if I would like the dreaded percolator (which most coffee fanatics just hate with the passion.) I fondly remember that delicious, vintage perking sound in the morning from my parent's stovetop percolator and decided perhaps it's time for a comeback. I really dreaded having to figure out the right timing, the right amount of coffee, etc., since I never used one, but I bravely forged ahead. Guess what? It's not that difficult and the coffee is wonderful and very hot, unlike most drip makers. I drink my coffee black and hate weak tasting or bitter tasting or cold coffee. This percolator pleasantly surprised me. It's all metal and glass with a wood handle. I would like the lid to be a bit more substantial and stay closed so one doesn't have to hold it down while pouring, however, it does the job. I have an induction cooktop on my stove and didn't want to fuss with making sure the bottom would work, so I purchased an inexpensive electric burner. This setup works great and in a way, I turned my stovetop pot into an electric one. Added plus, I can make coffee anywhere in the house I'd like to. (BTW my Bosch Induction Stove didn't want to cooperate with this percolator.) Why didn't I just buy an electric percolator to begin with? I wanted more control over the heat and the timing since I am a bit picky about coffee taste. HINT #1: Buy yourself extra glass globes. Immediately. My pot fell on the floor the 2nd day I owned it in my haste to get my coffee grounds ready. Yes, I was excited to use it. Thankfully Amazon/Coletti sell them separately and they arrive quick! I bought 4 of them. HINT #2: It speeds things up A LOT if you boil your water in a tea kettle on your stove, especially if you have a boost mode on your induction stovetop. Either boil it or get it very hot & then pour into the percolator. The perking starts very quickly and you can get to your luscious coffee sooner. I haven't noticed any difference in taste doing it this way. I'm not going back to drip coffee anytime soon. I bought the 9 cup (5 cup in American speak) but I just might be buying a larger unit to have handy when my coffee-drinking friends/relatives come over.
